Prepare yourself for a wet, freezing end to the weekend.

A wintry mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain will descend on the region Sunday morning, the National Weather Service said.

Snow and freezing rain are likely before 10 a.m. Sunday, the NWS said, before things change over to rain.

Though little accumulation is expected, things could be slippery.

“As the rain begins, it is not out of the question for a brief period of icing to cause slick spots in the far northern and western suburbs of Philadelphia,” Accuweather said.

Temperatures will fall to 30 Sunday night, the NWS said, with winds of up to 11 mph.

“Overall, Sunday will be nasty with a cold northeasterly wind,” philly.com’s John Bolaris said.
