A potent weekend storm features chance for storms and snow: A county-by-county breakdown for sections of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama – 1/14/22

As we move through the day on Saturday and into Sunday, a pretty potent system is going to swing through the area bringing a chance for storms, the threat for a few stronger storms close to the coast, then some pretty stout cold, and the potential for some wintry precip.

On some of these counties you may see “up to XX” possible” and please know that “up to” means that nothing is also an option. In this case, the range of potentials includes zero accumulations. And in fact, zero accumulations is most likely in most places.
