In advance of the storm, Saturday, Dec. 10 will be mostly sunny and dry with a high temperature in the low to mid 40s, the National Weather Service says.

Sunday's high temperature will be in the mid to upper 30s with wind-chill values between 20 and 30 degrees.

A wintry mix and snow are possible in areas where the temperature drops at or below the freezing mark starting early Sunday afternoon and continuing through Sunday evening.

Precipitation is expected to gradually end by the early overnight hours prior to daybreak on Monday, Dec. 12, which will be partly sunny with high temperatures ranging from the mid 30s to the low 40s.

There is still uncertainty surrounding the precise timing, track, and strength of the storm.
