The weekend remains a 50/50 split, and it’s quite a contrast from Saturday into Sunday. We start off with mostly sunny skies for Saturday, and highs in the mid 50s to low 60s. Sunday sees our next round of scattered showers, some of which could even mix with a little high-elevation snow early in the day. A winter weather advisory is in place for Sunday morning in the high elevations of Yancey and Mitchell counties for up to an inch of snow accumulation and a tenth of an inch of ice.

The best chance for rain is Sunday morning, then showers taper off for the afternoon. Highs will be very chilly in the 40s!
