On Sunday, there’s a chance of snow, but current forecasts indicate it could be light, the weather service said. “Even if it develops, the system will be rather weak and progressive, so snowfall totals and resulting impacts appear minor,” the weather service said in its Thursday morning forecast discussion.

Snow will turn into sleet and freezing rain along parts of the Southeast, as well as southern Arkansas, the weather service reported. Forecasters warn that icy conditions, between a tenth and a quarter inch of ice, will make travel dangerous for many. Power outages and downed branches are also a concern.

"People don't understand the consequences." A new winter storm will bring rain and some of the coldest temperatures of the season to the southeastern United States, including much of Florida. LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNINGS TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT-ERIE & CHAUTAUQUA
