Weather Summary

Weather Underground midday recap for Friday, February 10, 2012.

Snow showers moved through the Midwest, thunderstorms developed in the South, and cold air poured into the Plains on Friday. A trough of low pressure moved eastward from the Southern Plains and continued to push a cold front eastward, which extended from the Great Lakes into the Gulf states. The southern end of this system pulled moisture in from the Gulf of Mexico and triggered scattered showers and thunderstorms over the Lower Mississippi Valley. Severe storms have not been reported over the region, but rainfall totals reached over an inch in eastern Texas and southern Louisiana. Heaviest rainfall was reported at Angleton, Texas with a mid-day total of 1.12 inches of rain.

To the North, cool air over the Great Lakes and Midwest allowed for snow showers to develop along the northern side of this cold front. Snowfall accumulation ranged from 1 to 2 inches from southern Wisconsin and Michigan, through Ohio and the Central Appalachians. Some of these areas saw a messy combination of freezing rain and sleet.

Behind this system, a strong ridge of high pressure built into the Plains. This pushed in cool and dry air from central Canada and brought cold and breezy conditions to most of the Plains. The Northern Plains and Upper Midwest saw highs in the single digits, with overnight lows temperatures near 10 degrees below zero. Parts of the Southern Plains saw highs in the 40s, with overnight lows in the 20s.

Out West, a trough of low pressure pushed another cold front toward the Pacific Northwest. Moisture poured in ahead of this system, kicking up more rain showers over Oregon and Washington, with a few sprinkles in northern California. The Northern Rockies saw light and scattered snow showers as moisture reached over Idaho and Montana. Snowfall accumulations ranged from 2 to 4 inches in these areas.

Public Information Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 2:20 PM EST on February 10, 2012

... Severe weather awareness week day five...
... A checklist of severe weather safety rules...

On this last day of severe weather awareness week, here is a
checklist of safety rules for severe weather.

Be sure you have an all hazards weather radio with an alarm. The
National Weather Service activates theses alarms for severe weather,
civil emergencies, and National emergencies that affect the local
area.

When thunderstorms are approaching, move to a sturdy building or
car. Do not take shelter in small sheds, under isolated trees, or in
convertible automobiles. If lightning is occurring and a sturdy
shelter is not available, get inside a hard top automobile and keep
windows up and do not park under trees. Get out of boats and away
from water.

Telephone lines and metal pipes can conduct electricity. Unplug
appliances not necessary for obtaining weather information. Avoid
using the telephones, except in emergencies.

If caught outside, find a low spot away from trees, fences and
poles. Stay away from open areas like soccer fields, baseball
diamonds and especially Golf courses. When thunder roars, go indoors.
Lightning can strike up to 10 miles away!

During a tornado, move to an interior room or hallway on the lowest
floor and get under a sturdy piece of furniture if possible. Stay
away from windows. Get out of automobiles and into a ditch or
depression. Leave a Mobile home and get into a reinforced building.

During flash flooding, never drive your car into areas where water
covers the Road. Many people are killed this way each year. Turn
around, dont drown.

These simple safety rules can save your life during a severe
weather situation. We hope you have found the information presented
during this week helpful and the tornado drill gave you a chance to
practice what you would do during a tornado emergency. If you would
like more information on severe weather write to,
