Here&#8217;s my latest breakdown:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Temps this afternoon rebound toward the freezing mark or a little above in the south and west.<\/li>\n<li>Those temps drop back to freezing or a few degrees below as precipitation moves in. That sets the stage for our wintry mix.<\/li>\n<li>With the ground frozen solid and road temps in the low 20s, anything that falls is going to create slick travel conditions by Monday morning.<\/li>\n<li>Even with temps above freezing, the frozen ground is going to make things icy. That&#8217;s especially true for untreated roads, sidewalks and parking lots.<\/li>\n<li>Pinpointing specific amounts of each precipitation type is a tough thing to do, even on a general scale.
