Later in the day, showers will become heavier and more widespread. Weather computer models consistently keep the freezing temperature line near and just south of US-10. This will translate to mainly snow in that area and north, with southern locations getting mostly rain. Light freezing rain is also possible where the snow-rain line sets up.

An isolated thunderstorm is possible in southeastern communities.
