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.

Winter Weather Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:51 AM CST on February 13, 2012

... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 PM CST this
evening...

A Winter Weather Advisory for snow and freezing drizzle remains in
effect until 6 PM CST this evening.

* Location... west central and northwest Missouri as well as
adjacent areas of Kansas... including the greater Kansas City
metropolitan area.

* Timing... areas of light snow will continue this morning... tapering
off to patchy light snow or freezing drizzle this afternoon into
this evening.

* Snow amounts as of 9 am have averaged around one to two inches from
Kansas City to St. Joseph to the Iowa border... with locally higher
amounts up to around three inches over the northern Kansas City
Metro area. Additional snow accumulations will average around a
quarter inch or less for most of the advisory area through this
morning. Light snow or a light glazing of ice is possible through
the remainder of today and evening... but is not expected to be
significant.

* Impacts... this is the first accumulating snowfall of the winter
season for many areas. Although the snowfall will be tapering off
this morning... roadways will remain slick and hazardous. Numerous
accidents... some serious... have been reported this morning. Allow plenty
of extra time to reach your destination.Ensure that wiper Blades
are in working order... tire treads are sufficient for winter
weather... and that you have ample windshield fluid.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

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