Weather Underground Forecast for Thursday, February 09, 2012.

A disturbance dropping southeastward across the Great Basin will reach the southern Rockies on Thursday. The system will kick up light snow showers in the Central and Southern Rockies. Snow accumulation is expected to fairly light, with only an inch or two at best over the San Juans and

southern Sangres mountains. Meanwhile, another disturbance moving out of northeastern Mexico will move into Texas. This energy will interact with moisture from the Gulf of Mexico will produce light rain showers in the Southern Plains. Elsewhere in the West, a warm front will move through western Washington, bringing light showers to the Pacific Northwest through the morning. Offshore flow and ridging could give clearing and

warmer temperature to the region by the afternoon.

In the East, a cold front from southern Canada will drop into the Great Lakes and Central Plains during the day. This system will kick up snow showers in parts of the Upper Great Lakes, primarily in northern Michigan. Elsewhere, high pressure builds over the Eastern Valleys with generally calm and dry weather conditions.

... Michigan NOAA Weather Radio all hazards awareness week
continues...

February 5th through the 11th is NOAA Weather Radio all hazards
awareness week in Michigan. All Michigan residents are urged to
learn more about NOAA Weather Radio all hazards this week.

The National Weather Service provides emergency weather
information used to alert the public to dangerous conditions.
Linking the NOAA Weather Radio all hazards network electronically
with the nations emergency alert system (eas) helps the National
Weather Service save lives by reaching more people with timely...
site specific severe weather warnings.

As part of the eas... the National Weather Service has employed a
alerting system called weather radio specific area message encoding
(same). Same uses digital coding to activate only those special
receivers programmed for specific emergency conditions in a specific
area... typically a County. Same can activate specially equipped
NOAA Weather Radio all hazards receivers... and provide a short text
message that identifies the location and type of emergency. Same is
the primary weather activator of the emergency alert system.

NOAA Weather Radio all hazards broadcasts warning and Post event
information for all types of hazards... both natural and
