Weather Summary
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.

Winter Weather Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 2:43 PM CST on February 09, 2012

... Winter Weather Advisory in effect from 6 PM EST /5 PM CST/
Friday to noon EST /11 am CST/ Saturday...

The National Weather Service in Louisville has issued a Winter
Weather Advisory for accumulating snow and hazardous driving
conditions... which is in effect from 6 PM EST /5 PM CST/ Friday
to noon EST /11 am CST/ Saturday.

* Timing: a mix of rain and snow will overspread the advisory area
during the day on Friday. By Friday evening... colder air will
push into the region resulting in the rain and snow changing
over to snow. The snow is expected to continue Friday night and
into Saturday morning.

* Main impact: as surface temperatures fall below freezing Friday
evening... snowfall is expected to accumulate across the region.
Snowfall amounts of around an inch will be possible across
south-central Kentucky. Snowfall amounts generally north of the
western Kentucky and Bluegrass parkways will likely average 1 to
2 inches.

* Other impacts: the combination of the anticipated snowfall along
with temperatures falling into the 20s Friday night will lead to
hazardous driving conditions across the area. If you have travel
plans for Friday night... allow yourself plenty of time to reach
your destination.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Weather Advisory for snow means that periods of snow
will cause primarily travel difficulties. Be prepared for snow
covered roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while
driving.

Stay tuned to NOAA all hazards weather radio and your local media
for the latest updates on this winter weather situation.
