Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Thursday, February 23, 2012.

Unsettled weather will continue across the northern half of the nation on Thursday. IN the East, a disturbance from the Midwest will lift northeastward through the Ohio Valley into the Northeast. The system will bring widely scattered rain showers, periods of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms from the Tennessee and Ohio Valley into the Mid-Atlantic. A mix of precipitation is expected in the Northeast Thursday through Friday. Expect periods of localized significant wet snowfall across the higher elevation and east of Lake Ontario. In addition to snow, periods of heavy rainfall are anticipated in much of New England. To the south, there will be a slight risk of severe thunderstorms ahead of an associated cold front late Thursday into Thursday night across parts of the Lower Ohio and Tennessee Valleys into the Gulf States. Isolated supercells in these regions may produce large hail, damaging wind gusts, and tornadoes.

Behind this activity, energy from the Northwest will advance into the Upper Midwest. Moisture spreading into the Plains will aid in producing rain and snow in the Northern Plains and rain showers in the Mid-Mississippi Valley and western Ohio Valley. As this system advances southeastward, expect areas of snow showers to persist over portion of the Northwest and Central Rockies.

Elsewhere, warm temperatures will remain in place from the Central and Southern Plains through the Mid-Atlantic, before the next trough of low pressure arrives Friday with cooler weather.

Lake Wind Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 2:34 AM EST on February 23, 2012

... Lake Wind Advisory in effect from 1 PM this afternoon to 1 am
EST Friday...

The National Weather Service in Jackson has issued a lake Wind
Advisory... which is in effect from 1 PM this afternoon to 1 am
EST Friday.

* Gusty winds will increase in advance of an area of low pressure
with showers and thunderstorms to track across eastern Kentucky
this evening and continue through the early night time hours.

* Sustained winds between 15 and 25 mph are expected with gusts up to
35 mph.

* Gusty winds will make boating on area lakes hazardous. Boaters are
advised to exercise caution or to delay boating plans until the
wind diminishes. In addition... the gusty winds will create
difficult driving conditions for high profile vehicles.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A lake Wind Advisory indicates that winds will cause rough chop
on area lakes. Small boats will be especially prone to capsizing.
