Wet Stormy weekend, followed by winter mix?

It looks like we'll be in for more wet weather this weekend, with strong to severe storms developing Saturday afternoon and lasting into Sunday morning.  Sunday and Monday are forecast to see additional rainfall in the area.  Late Monday, there is a chance that rain could turn into freezing rain, but this is uncertain as of this writing.  As the NWS said, confidence isn't very high, but it's worth a mention in the forecast.  As always, we'll keep you updated as conditions develop.
