A strong storm system will move across the southeastern US Friday and Saturday with a cold rain developing across the Lowcountry.  To our northwest, mainly near and north of I-85, a major winter storm, with significant ice and snow accumulations, is possible. 

We may see a couple of inches of rain out of this system if everything comes together just right.  Saturday will be a cold, breezy, and rainy day with most areas only seeing the thermometer climb into the middle 40s at best with falling temperatures possible by late afternoon. After the storm departs, you can expect a cold and sunny day on Sunday with highs likely holding in the 40s.

One side note:  Some guidance is trying to develop some precip across the region Saturday night.  If this occurs, we will have to monitor trends carefully for potential winter precip .  For now the chance of that occurring is very low, as guidance sometimes over plays wrap around moisture.  The forecast will continue to indicate a decreasing chance of rain Saturday afternoon and dry conditions overnight Saturday as much colder air filters into the region.  However, we will continue to monitor trends.
