Weather Summary
Weather Underground Forecast for Friday, February 10, 2012.

Expect active weather to move into the East on Friday, as a trough of low pressure moves from the Southern Plains and into the Eastern Valleys. Flow around this system will pull moisture and energy in from the Gulf of Mexico. This will produce scattered showers and thunderstorms over the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi River Valley throughout the day. There is a slight chance that these storms will turn severe with strong winds and heavy downpours. The northern side of this system will push a cold front into the Midwest, which will move through the Great Lakes and into the Ohio River Valley. Expect light and scattered snow showers to develop along the front as it passes through northern Michigan and into the eastern Ohio Valley and the Central Appalachians. Warmer temperatures ahead of this system will allow for rain showers to develop in parts of the Mid-Atlantic states and the Tennessee Valley.

Out West, a weak trough of low pressure moves onshore from the Pacific Ocean, bringing some moisture onshore with it. This will produce more rain and high elevation snow showers over the Pacific Northwest. Some of this moisture will stretch southward into northern California, allowing for light rain and high elevation snow showers to spread into the northern Sierras.

Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 4:33 AM EST on February 10, 2012

... Strong cold front to bring a brief... yet significant surge of
cold air to Georgia during the weekend...

An Arctic cold front... really only the second one this entire winter
season... will sweep through all of Georgia by early Saturday. The
cold front will be followed by sharply following temperatures and
very gusty northwest winds.

Temperatures Saturday will fall from the 40s during the morning to
the 30s by late afternoon... then well into the 20s by early
Sunday... with teens possible in the far north and mountains. In
addition... northwest winds of 15 to 25 mph with gusts of 30 to 35
mph are also expected. These winds will combine with the sharply
falling temperatures to create significant wind chills by Saturday
evening in the teens... then dropping to near 10 early Sunday as
winds begin to diminish.

Given that this has been a very mild winter overall with only one
similar brief cold snap in early January... the wind and cold will be
more noticeable than usual. In addition... the extended warm weather
this winter has resulted in extremely premature budding of Flowers
and plants... many a month or more ahead of their normal blooming
schedule.

Finally... snow showers will be possible in the north Georgia
mountains... as well as the higher elevations of north central and
northwest Georgia Saturday into Saturday evening. A minor dusting of
snow will be possible in the higher elevations... mainly above 2500
feet... with up to 1/2 inch possible in the highest elevations.

The expected weather conditions Saturday will most certainly warrant
a Wind Advisory that will be issued later today or tonight. A Winter
Weather Advisory may also be required should snowfall in the north
Georgia mountains be more than currently anticipated. Residents of
north and central Georgia should continue to monitor this upcoming
winter weather event.
