Answer:

A. Rain is likely.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have no idea of the temperature that the city is observing, nor if there are cold winds surrounding the clouds, we couldnĀ“t assume or safely predecit snow, but what we know is that the clouds are moving 30 miles per hour to the east, so in the next 24 hours theuy might be reaching the city, so rain is likely.
