Wouldn't surprise me. The entire northern half of the state got blanketed by the stuff unfortunately.

So I feel like in one of the early days I saw a map that showed where they were expecting it to move, at that point it was more southwest but ever since then I haven’t been able to find another map - is there one & I’m just terrible at googling or is it just a guess at this point?

Wouldn’t that be going the other way since we’re east of Ohio?

Nope.

Prevailing winds travel across the country from West to East. Also compounding is the fact that there has been a lot of days with clouds and warm air aloft which will trap air at the surface, i.e. high particulate levels.
