Weather Underground Forecast for Sunday, February 12, 2012.

The East dries out on Sunday, but wet weather continues moving through the West. A trough of low pressure advances eastward over the Great Basin and Central Rockies, producing moderate snow showers over Utah and Colorado. Winter weather advisories have been issued for parts of western Colorado as snowfall accumulations may reach from 6 to 8 inches by Sunday evening. Most of Utah, western Wyoming, and northern New Mexico should see lighter snow showers with accumulation around 1 to 2 inches. The tail end of this trough will extend into western Texas, bringing snow and freezing rain showers into northwestern Texas. Precipitation from this system will move into the Texas Panhandle late Sunday into Monday morning. Winter storm warnings have been issued for the region as 3 to 5 inches of snow are possible, with ice accumulations from 0.10 to 0.30 inches by Sunday evening. This will cause dangerous roads and travel conditions.

Meanwhile, another trough of low pressure and associated cold front approach the West Coast on Sunday. This system will reach the coasts of the Pacific Northwest and northern California in the afternoon and evening hours, bringing more rain showers. Temperatures will remain cool over most of the West Coast as this system pushes clouds and moisture onshore.

In the East, a strong ridge of high pressure allows for dry, sunny, and cool weather to persist. This system creates strong flow from the north, pushing cold air into the Plains and Eastern Valleys. Expect highs to range in the 20s in the Midwest, while the Ohio River Valley and Tennessee Valleys will see highs in the 30s. Freeze advisories have been issued for the Gulf states as low temperatures will drop into the 20s Sunday night. Dangerous fire conditions spread over the Southeastern states due to high pressure creating a very dry airmas with strong winds.

Public Information Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 2:11 PM CST on February 12, 2012

... Continuing severe weather awareness week highlighting the
differences between a watch and a warning...

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch or a Tornado Watch is issued when
atmospheric conditions are favorable for the development of severe
weather.

Specifically...

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is issued when the primary concern is for
large hail and/or damaging thunderstorm winds. 1 inch (quarter-
sized) or larger hail is considered severe... as is thunderstorm
wind gusts of 58 mph or stronger.

A Tornado Watch is issued when severe weather is expected, which also
includes the possibility of large and/or multiple tornadoes.

After coordinating with affected National Weather Service forecast
offices... the watch is issued by the Storm Prediction Center in
Norman... Oklahoma. The typical size of a watch area is twenty
five thousand square miles and usually takes the shape of a four-
sided polygon. The watch typically lasts for six to eight hours.
When a watch is issued... it is important to be on the alert for
threatening weather and be prepared to move quickly to safety when
severe weather develops.

Severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings are issued by local National
Weather Service forecast offices when severe thunderstorms or
tornadoes are imminent... either as indicated by Doppler radar or
when observed & reported by reliable sources such as Skywarn
spotters. A warning usually covers a portion of one to several
counties or parishes and normally lasts for an hour or less. Pay
close attention to the information contained in the warning and
take immediate action to protect yourselves. Warnings include
important details such as which locations are at greatest risk and
what measures you should take to protect yourself.

Remember: in a watch... watch the sky. In a warning... take action to
protect yourself.

&&

across the four state region dating back to the 1978 Shreveport F4
tornado... please visit... www.Srh.NOAA.Gov/shv/events/
