An upper level low remains to our southwest this morning. It should move northeast across the viewing area later today. Precipitation will likely begin as rain as temperatures are still a bit above freezing this morning. The rain should change over to sleet and snow for at least a little while in the areas that are currently under advisories and warnings today. There will be reduced visibilities at times today and some slick spots could develop on the roadways. The most likely areas where the winter precipitation could accumulate include grassy areas, cars, bridges, overpasses and less traveled roadways. Be careful if you have to travel around the area today. Stay tuned to KRBC for the latest weather updates.

Have a safe Sunday!
