It will be rain down in the Southern States but by the time it gets here it could be close enough where it draws in a little cold air and saturday night into sunday morning there is the chance of some snow before a changeover to rain. This should be arriving saturday evening, done real early sunday morning but, you know, a few inches of accumulation would be possible in places that see all the snow.
