Weather Summary
Weather Underground Forecast for Saturday, February 11, 2012.

Precipitation will spread across the East Coast on Saturday, while more rain and mountain snow showers are anticipated for parts of the West. A trough of low pressure and associated cold front continue moving eastward across the Eastern Valleys into the Eastern Seaboard. Cool temperatures to the north will allow for snow showers to develop across the Northeast and New England, while rain showers are likely over the Mid-Atlantic states. Rain showers over the Southeastern states should wind down in the early morning hours as the tail end of the system pushes offshore early in the day. Expect the New York metropolitan area to see 1 to 3 inches of snow, while the Washington D.C. area will see a messy combination of snow and freezing rain as high temperatures reach into the lower 40s.

Behind this system, a ridge of high pressure continues to build in from the Plains, pushing cold and dry air in from Canada. This allows for plenty of sunshine to spread from the Plains over the Mississippi River Valley and into the Eastern Valleys. Expect the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest to see highs in the teens again, while the Midwest will see highs in the 20s. Strong winds will accompany this system, pushing windchill values below zero in these areas. The Southern Plains will remain in the 40s on Saturday.

Out West, a trough of low pressure pushes a cold front over the Pacific Northwest and continues pulling moisture onshore with it. This will kick up more rain showers with high elevation snow showers likely in the Cascades. The tail end of the frontal boundary will sweep through California, bringing light rain showers to the coasts and interior valleys. Expect light snow showers in the Sierra Nevadas by Saturday evening.

Hard Freeze Warning
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 4:32 AM CST on February 11, 2012

... Hard freeze warning in effect from 9 PM this evening to 9 am
CST Sunday...

The National Weather Service in New Orleans has issued a hard
freeze warning... which is in effect from 9 PM this evening to
9 am CST Sunday. The freeze watch is no longer in effect.

* Timing... temperatures will fall below freezing around 9 PM and
not warm above freezing until around 9 am Sunday morning.

* Temperature... minimum temperatures of 23 to 26 are expected for
2 to 3 hours mainly between 5 am and 8 am.

* Impacts... prematurely blooming or emerging plants are at most
risk of damage or being killed if not properly protected. Very
dry air with low humidity levels will also pose a higher than
usual fire risk... particularly with the use of heaters.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A hard freeze warning means sub-freezing temperatures are
imminent or highly likely. These conditions will kill crops and
other sensitive vegetation.

Pets are also subject to the extreme cold. Keep pets indoors as
much as possible. If this is not possible... make sure outdoor pets
have warm dry shelter... and provide sufficient food and fresh
unfrozen water.

Be particularly careful with portable heaters... there is a
danger of fire or poisonous fumes.
