in durham, raleigh, sanford, 48 there in fayetteville. normal high, 53. so obviously we're going to be a little below the average temperature. cloudy skies are expected. and most of the rain is going to be for our eastern areas as opposed to those north and west and it looks like the potential for the most snow will likely be south and east of clinton and aoest of i -- also wayne county and sampson county although many other areas could also see a dusting. we're going to break it down for you and make it more simple. essentially if you're all the way toward roanoke rapids and western side of i-95 you will likely see a rain event. i'm not seeing you won't see snow. you may. see snow showers mixing in but likely more rain than snow. down to the southeast, you could see more of a rain-snow mix. at times it could be more snow than rain. and i do think you have the potential of seeing a slight amount of accumulation. although with rain mixing in, event either way. rain tends to waub away snow so not looking at anything really major around here
