Weather Summary
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.

Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 5:05 PM EST on February 11, 2012

... Lake Wind Advisory now in effect until 6 am EST Sunday...

* locations... foothills and Piedmont of the Carolinas and
northeast Georgia.

* Hazards... windy conditions on area lakes.

* Timing... gusty northwest winds will continue through the
overnight hours. The strongest gusts will occur through the
middle to late part of the evening.

Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 3:22 PM EST on February 11, 2012

... Increased fire danger from Sunday morning through Sunday
evening...

Gusty northwest winds will continue to usher in a very dry and
cold air mass across the area through the weekend. Very low
dewpoints will result in relative humidity falling to 15 to 25
percent Sunday afternoon across northeast Georgia... upstate South
Carolina... and the foothills... western Piedmont... and southern
mountains of North Carolina. Northwest winds of 10 to 15
mph... with gusts around 20 mph will combine with the low relative
humidity to enhance the potential for the spread of wildfire.

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn tomorrow. If you do burn... use extreme caution since
fires can quickly get out of hand under these conditions.
