Weather Summary

Weather Underground midday recap for Monday, February 13, 2012. A storm raced out of the Rockies and into the Plains on Monday, producing a good shot of Winter weather in the Plains and Mississippi Valley. Winter Weather Advisories were posted from eastern Oklahoma through the western Tennessee Valley in anticipation of several inches of new snow. Snow fell as far north as Minnesota and Michigan, but lighter snow was reported the farther north you went. In the warmer air closer to the Gulf Coast, rain fell in Louisiana and Mississippi.

Wet weather also greeted the West Coast as a Pacific storm slammed into California. This storm lacked a tremendous amount of moisture, but it has been a very dry Winter for the state thus far, and any precipitation is very much welcomed. Up to a foot of new snow is possible from this storm in the higher elevations of the Sierra Nevadas when all is said and done.

The East Coast was dry as a high pressure continued to dominate, but the region experienced another chilly day. By the afternoon, temperatures were still in the 20s and 30s for many areas in New England, while temperatures in the 30s were experience as far south as Arkansas. Morning temperatures were in the 20s in northern Florida.

The Northern Plains rose into the 20s and 30s, while the Northwest saw temperatures in the 30s and 40s. The Southwest rose into the 40s, 50s, and some 60s.

Wind Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 1:22 PM PST on February 13, 2012

... Wind Advisory remains in effect until midnight PST tonight...

A Wind Advisory remains in effect until midnight PST tonight.

* Affected area... Joshua Tree National Park... southwest and
north central portions of Imperial County... including the
Interstate 8 corridor from mountain Spring pass east to el
centro and gordons well... and higher elevations in Riverside
County bordering sections of Interstate 10.

* Timing... through midnight PST Monday night.

* Winds... west winds sustained at 25 to 35 mph... with gusts to
45 mph.

* Impacts... travel difficulties for high profile vehicles... and
the potential for areas of reduced visibilities due to blowing
dust or sand.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that sustained wind speeds of between
30 and 40 mph are expected... or wind gusts of between 40 and
58 mph. Winds this strong can make driving difficult... especially
for high profile vehicles. In addition... strong winds over desert
areas could result in briefly lowered visibilities to well under
a mile at times in blowing dust or blowing sand. Use extra
caution.
