With some dry air in place, as precipitation tries pushing in, it will probably hit a wedge of cold and dry air near the surface.
As temperatures drop back below freezing, we'll likely see light snow.
For a time on Sunday, there is a possibility for sleet before changing back over to a mix of rain and snow.
Rain and snow could be with us to start off Monday, but warm enough air will move in and change everything over to just plain rain, mid-late morning.
