Weather Summary
Kari Kiefer
Weather Underground midday recap for Thursday, February 09, 2012.

Areas of active weather developed over the West on Thursday, while Texas saw a mix of snow, freezing rain, and rain. A trough of low pressure moved off the Southern Rockies and into the Southern Plains. This allowed for snow showers to end over New Mexico and moved into northern Texas and Oklahoma. Snowfall accumulation in northern New Mexico ranged from 1 to 3 inches, while the panhandle of Texas saw an inch of snow and ice accumulation up to a tenth of an inch. Winter weather advisories have been issued for parts of the Southern Plains as this system created dangerous road and travel conditions. To the south, onshore flow from the Gulf of Mexico pushed moist air into eastern Texas. This kicked up scattered showers and thunderstorms from northeastern Mexico and through southeastern Texas. These storms have not yet turned severe.

In the West, a low pressure system in the Gulf of Alaska continued pushing a warm front into the Pacific Northwest. Temperatures increased as this system moved onshore, which increased snow levels across the Washington Cascades. Precipitation remained as rain showers in most areas. Rainfall totals ranged around 1 inch, with heaviest rainfall totals up to 1.12 inches in Chehalis, Washington.

Back East, a ridge of high pressure covered the Mississippi River Valley and Eastern US. This pushed cool and dry air in from Canada and created sunny skies with brisk conditions. High temperatures ranged in the 30s across the Great Lakes region, while the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states reached into the upper 40s.

Lake Effect Snow Watch
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:09 PM CST on February 09, 2012

... Lake effect snow watch remains in effect from Friday afternoon
through Saturday afternoon...

* timing... lake effect snow is expected to develop Friday
afternoon and continue through Friday night and Saturday morning
before shifting east of the watch area by mid afternoon
Saturday. North to northeast winds will initially focus the most
numerous snow showers along the Illinois shore Friday
afternoon... with the focus then expected to shift more into lake
and Porter counties in Northwest Indiana overnight Friday night.
Winds will eventually back to the northwest on Saturday...
allowing the bands of lake effect snow to move east of Porter
County in the early afternoon. The period of heaviest lake
effect snow and fastest accumulation will occur from late Friday
afternoon into the predawn hours of Saturday.

* Snow accumulations... while lake effect snow can be highly
localized... current forecasts are for total accumulations from 3
to 5 inches in far northeast Cook County... 4 to 7 inches across
downtown Chicago and the south suburbs... with 5 to 8 inches from
the far southeast side of Chicago east across central and
Northern Lake and Porter counties of Northwest Indiana. Isolated
higher amounts are possible if the heaviest snow bands can
become stationary for an extended period of time.

* Other impacts... slippery snow covered roads... intense snowfall
leading to rapid snow accumulation and severely reduced
visibility... blowing and drifting snow... and single digit wind
chills.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A lake effect snow watch means there is a potential for a large
amount of snow in only a few hours. Visibilities and depth of
snow can vary greatly... impacting travel significantly. Continue
to monitor the latest forecasts.
