Hi everyone,

A weak storm system will produce rain for most areas from late Saturday morning through Saturday evening.  However, in the higher terrain, above approximately 1000 ft., there could be a light accumulation of snow, sleet, and freezing rain. Less than 1/10 inch of ice accretion is expected in those areas and daytime accretion will be difficult due to the relatively warm ground.

A Special Weather Statement, rather than a Winter Weather Advisory, will be issued to address this concern.

Dry, windy, and much warmer conditions are forecast for Sunday, with highs reaching 55 to 60 in many areas.
