It is still a ways off, but models are suggesting that rain, snow and ice could threaten Southern cities this weekend. A strong system from the Southwest will move east by the weekend, interacting with the cold air over the South and Southeast. Some models are suggesting snow from northern Texas to northern Georgia, with Atlanta potentially seeing a wintry mix. Ice is possible for cities like Dallas, Oklahoma City and Little Rock. Most of these cities do not usually see weather like this, so travel could be impacted. Here’s the latest forecast.
