Weather Summary
Kari Kiefer
Weather Underground midday recap for Tuesday, February 14, 2012.

Multiple areas of wet weather developed over most of the nation on Tuesday. In the East, a weak trough of low pressure brought snow, freezing rain, and rain showers to the Upper Ohio River Valley, Central and Northern Appalachians, and the Northeast. Snowfall accumulation over the region remained light and varied around an inch in most places. Meanwhile, a cold front extended south from this system and extended over the Southeast. This pulled in moisture and energy from the Gulf of Mexico, and triggered showers and thunderstorms over the Gulf coast. Heaviest rainfall accumulation reached up to 0.96 inches in Key West, Florida.

Out West, light snow showers developed across most of the Rockies as a trough moved in from the West Coast. This brought light snow to the Northern and Central Rockies, with winter weather advisories issued for parts of Utah, Colorado, and northern New Mexico. The southern side of this system brought a messy combination of rain and snow to Arizona and New Mexico. Heaviest snowfall accumulation ranged from 3 to 5 inches in parts of Utah. Further West, a low pressure system offshore pushed a cold front into the Pacific Northwest, which produced more rain and high elevation snow showers.
