Weather Summary

Weather Underground Forecast for Friday, February 10, 2012.

Expect active weather to move into the East on Friday, as a trough of low pressure moves from the Southern Plains and into the Eastern Valleys. Flow around this system will pull moisture and energy in from the Gulf of Mexico. This will produce scattered showers and thunderstorms over the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi River Valley throughout the day. There is a slight chance that these storms will turn severe with strong winds and heavy downpours. The northern side of this system will push a cold front into the Midwest, which will move through the Great Lakes and into the Ohio River Valley. Expect light and scattered snow showers to develop along the front as it passes through northern Michigan and into the eastern Ohio Valley and the Central Appalachians. Warmer temperatures ahead of this system will allow for rain showers to develop in parts of the Mid-Atlantic states and the Tennessee Valley.

Out West, a weak trough of low pressure moves onshore from the Pacific Ocean, bringing some moisture onshore with it. This will produce more rain and high elevation snow showers over the Pacific Northwest. Some of this moisture will stretch southward into northern California, allowing for light rain and high elevation snow showers to spread into the northern Sierras.

Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 4:50 AM CST on February 10, 2012

... Light snow expected from mid afternoon into early evening
followed by lake effect snow showers... .

A strong cold front will move through the region today... ushering
in a blast of colder air that will persist into the weekend. Light
snow is expected to develop along and behind the front with the
most favorable time frame for accumulating snowfall between 4 PM
and 8 PM EST /3 PM and 7 PM CST/. Accumulations from a dusting to a
few inches of snow can be expected.

As the cold air moves over Lake Michigan... a strong band of
lake effect snow is expected to develop across portions of lake
and Porter counties and potentially shift eastward with time into
portions of La Porte... Starke... Pulaski and white counties
overnight. Several uncertainties remain as to how this band of
snow may unfold. At least an inch or two of snow may fall... in
addition to the afternoon and evening snowfall... with the
potential for several inches of snow if a more eastward trend of
the band occurs. Those planning travel later this afternoon into
tonight should monitor later forecasts for updates and possible
winter headlines as this event becomes better established.
