Weather Summary
Weather Underground midday recap for Friday, February 10, 2012.

Snow showers moved through the Midwest, thunderstorms developed in the South, and cold air poured into the Plains on Friday. A trough of low pressure moved eastward from the Southern Plains and continued to push a cold front eastward, which extended from the Great Lakes into the Gulf states. The southern end of this system pulled moisture in from the Gulf of Mexico and triggered scattered showers and thunderstorms over the Lower Mississippi Valley. Severe storms have not been reported over the region, but rainfall totals reached over an inch in eastern Texas and southern Louisiana. Heaviest rainfall was reported at Angleton, Texas with a mid-day total of 1.12 inches of rain.

To the North, cool air over the Great Lakes and Midwest allowed for snow showers to develop along the northern side of this cold front. Snowfall accumulation ranged from 1 to 2 inches from southern Wisconsin and Michigan, through Ohio and the Central Appalachians. Some of these areas saw a messy combination of freezing rain and sleet.

Behind this system, a strong ridge of high pressure built into the Plains. This pushed in cool and dry air from central Canada and brought cold and breezy conditions to most of the Plains. The Northern Plains and Upper Midwest saw highs in the single digits, with overnight lows temperatures near 10 degrees below zero. Parts of the Southern Plains saw highs in the 40s, with overnight lows in the 20s.

Out West, a trough of low pressure pushed another cold front toward the Pacific Northwest. Moisture poured in ahead of this system, kicking up more rain showers over Oregon and Washington, with a few sprinkles in northern California. The Northern Rockies saw light and scattered snow showers as moisture reached over Idaho and Montana. Snowfall accumulations ranged from 2 to 4 inches in these areas.

Hard Freeze Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 3:49 PM CST on February 10, 2012

... Hard freeze watch remains in effect from late Saturday night
through Sunday morning...

* timing... Sunday between midnight and 8 am for temperatures
near 20 or possibly below 20.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A hard freeze watch means there is a significant risk temperatures
will fall to near 20 degrees or lower Saturday night into Sunday
morning. These conditions could kill crops and other cold sensitive
vegetation. Check on elderly neighbors to make sure they have
adequate heat. Area shelters should make preparations for extra
demand. Pets and livestock should be protected.

All should take adequate safety precautions with heating systems.
Use Carbon monoxide detectors in enclosed spaces. Extra caution
should be used with portable space heaters. Make sure they are not
left unattended and are not used near flammable materials such as
curtains or bed coverings. Listen to NOAA Weather Radio or your local
news media outlets for later updates on the developing cold weather
situation over the next day or two.

Temperatures such as these especially after a prolonged warm period
can bring on complacency. Remember sensitive plants... exposed water
pipes... and water cooled engines needing antifreeze.





Fire Weather Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 2:12 PM CST on February 10, 2012

... Fire Weather Watch remains in effect from Sunday morning
through Sunday afternoon for south central and southwest Alabama
due to risk of long duration of low relative humidity below 25
percent...

* affected area... fire weather zones 051... 052... 053... 054...
055... 056... 057... 058... 059... 060... 061... 062... 063 and 064.

* Humidity... lowering to below 15 percent on Sunday.

* Impacts... any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly.
Outdoor burning is not recommended.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Fire Weather Watch means that critical fire weather conditions
are forecast to occur. Listen for later fire weather forecasts
and possible red flag warnings.
