Weather Underground Forecast for Monday, February 13, 2012.

The trough of low pressure that brought unsettled weather to the West on Sunday will advance into the Plains on Monday with more mixed precipitation. The trough will support a low and associated warm front moving eastward into the Southern Plains. As the system progresses, rain showers with periods of heavy rain and isolated thunderstorms will spread from parts of central/eastern Texas into western Louisiana, mixed precipitation will develop in parts of Oklahoma and Arkansas, and snow will blanket parts of the Central Plains, Mid-Mississippi Valley, and parts of the western Ohio Valley. Areas from eastern Texas through Arkansas should expect the heaviest precipitation totals. Heightened winter weather conditions will allow Winter Weather Advisories and a few Winter Storm Warnings to remain in effect through the day. Elsewhere east of the Continental Divide, lake-effect snow showers will continue along parts of the Lower Great Lakes Snowbelt.

In the West, a Pacific cold front pushing across the Pacific Northwest will drop southward across northern California, bringing coastal and valley rain and significant snowfall to the Sierra Nevadas.

Winter Weather Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:42 AM CST on February 13, 2012

... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 PM CST this
evening...

* precipitation... a combination of light snow and light freezing
drizzle will fall into the afternoon. Locations north of
Interstate 80 should eventually experience more snow than
freezing drizzle... especially during the afternoon. North
central Kansas and southern Nebraska will experience more in the
way of freezing drizzle... until temperatures rise above
freezing. The precipitation will end from west to east from mid
to late afternoon.

* Snow and ice accumulation... total snowfall accumulations of 1
to 2 inches are anticipated... with the best potential for 2
inch amounts focused north of Interstate 80 in south central
Nebraska. In addition... freezing drizzle is expected to
produce a thin glaze of ice in many areas.

* Impact... the combination of snow and freezing drizzle will
create slick conditions on roadways and outdoor surfaces.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of snow... sleet... or
freezing rain will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for
slippery roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while
driving.
