Traffic was definitely a mess in some areas. We went up to an out of the way fen south of Bellefontaine and a 40 minute drive ended up taking an hour+40. 270 and 33 were a mess. Same coming back except we took back roads — the thriving metropolis of Milford Center hadn’t seen that many cars in the last 10 years combined.

I've heard other people talk about traffic being an issue in their areas. Not enough to shut down any cities, but maybe it doubled their normal drive time.
Maybe no one came to east side of Cleveland. I mean, I can buy that. Why would someone go there?
