On Sunday, the high will be 22 degrees and the low will be 15.

Clouds will increase later on Sunday night as moisture moves into the region. Snow will begin to accumulate early Monday AM for parts of the area, at least a couple of inches is expected.

"The wind will then shift out of the south and begin to filter in warmer air. This will cause the snow to transition to sleet/freezing rain, at times, until it gets warm enough for plain rain," says Ingram.
