Probabilities will likely happen.
Possibilities could happen if chances go right.
Plausibilities could, within reason, happen, but are not necessarily likely.

They’re not just different ranges of probability.
Probable = likely to happen
Possible = able to happen
Plausible = able or likely to happen according to reasonable inference
