Freezing rain and snow may return to the area this weekend.
Starting late Friday evening, or possibly in the early morning hours Saturday, the winter storm could have a variety of precipitation types before changing to all snow late Saturday afternoon and evening, according to the National Weather Service.
Some areas may get freezing rain after midnight Friday, forecasters said. Freezing rain may mix with light snow or sleet on the northern edge, according to the weather service. The wintry mix should end Saturday morning. There is a chance of ice.
Temperatures in the upper 20s to lower 30s Friday night, warming into the middle 30s on Saturday, will be the key to the types of precipitation, according to the weather service.
A light glazing to a few hundreds of an inch of ice could make for hazardous travel Friday night, forecasters warned.
Snow will spread from the southwest to the northeast late Saturday afternoon through Saturday night. A light amount of snow may fall in the afternoon, and a few inches of snow are possible on Saturday night, the weather service said.
Temperatures will fall into the single digits to lower teens by early Sunday morning, and will be accompanied by northwest winds between 15 to 20 mph, the weather service said. Wind chills may be between minus 5 to minus 15 degrees before 11 a.m., according to the weather service.
