Weather Summary
Weather Underground Forecast for Monday, February 13, 2012.

The trough of low pressure that brought unsettled weather to the West on Sunday will advance into the Plains on Monday with more mixed precipitation. The trough will support a low and associated warm front moving eastward into the Southern Plains. As the system progresses, rain showers with periods of heavy rain and isolated thunderstorms will spread from parts of central/eastern Texas into western Louisiana, mixed precipitation will develop in parts of Oklahoma and Arkansas, and snow will blanket parts of the Central Plains, Mid-Mississippi Valley, and parts of the western Ohio Valley. Areas from eastern Texas through Arkansas should expect the heaviest precipitation totals. Heightened winter weather conditions will allow Winter Weather Advisories and a few Winter Storm Warnings to remain in effect through the day. Elsewhere east of the Continental Divide, lake-effect snow showers will continue along parts of the Lower Great Lakes Snowbelt.

In the West, a Pacific cold front pushing across the Pacific Northwest will drop southward across northern California, bringing coastal and valley rain and significant snowfall to the Sierra Nevadas.

Wind Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 11:10 AM MST on February 13, 2012

... Wind Advisory remains in effect until midnight PST /1 am MST/
tonight...

A Wind Advisory remains in effect until midnight PST /1 am MST/
tonight for much of San Bernardino County... Death Valley National
Park... southern Nye County... western and southern Clark County and
southern Mohave County.

* Winds: south to southwest 25 to 40 mph with gusts to 50 mph.

* Timing: the strongest winds are expected across the western
deserts of San Bernardino County and then spread east this
afternoon. The stronger winds are expected to continue this
evening before tapering off by midnight.

* Locations: Barstow... furnace creek... Pahrump... desert rock...
Amargosa Valley... Searchlight... Primm... Kingman.

* Impacts: difficult driving conditions due to strong
Crosswinds and possible reduced visibility in blowing dust
and sand.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that Crosswinds are expected to be strong
enough to 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.
