Mixed bag to rain, rain to snow showers

As moisture begins to move in over a cold layer of air at the surface, do not be surprised if you see some snowflakes, sleet pellets or a little freezing rain overnight and early Sunday. But temperatures will likely hang a little above freezing in most areas, and warmer air aloft will most likely switch everything to rain almost everywhere by mid-morning Sunday. Late Sunday night, cold air will come screaming in again behind a blustery cold front, and there will be a chance of snow showers into the day Monday.

It looks like a brush with wintry precipitation, not a slap of it.

  2. We had a little bit of sleet a short while ago, but now it's just cloudy and in the mid 40's.

  5. I'm still getting NE winds.

    Looks like a weak wedge to me.
