Sunday’s record-breaking precipitation has worked its way out of the region — just in time for another storm system to take its place.

The latest weather system will bring a chance for a rain-snow mix Tuesday morning and evening in the Omaha metro area. The western third of Nebraska could see 1 to 3 inches of snow. The snow also is expected to clip northeast Nebraska.

Riding in behind the system will be colder weather.
