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 9:24 PM CST on February 12, 2012

... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 am CST
Monday...

* timing... the threat of accumulating snowfall will diminish
through the remainder of the evening. However... freezing drizzle
and fog will continue to result in hazardous travel conditions
overnight... especially in areas where snow pack exists.

* Main impact... patchy freezing drizzle and fog will deposit a
thin ice layer on snow packed roads and surfaces. Ice
accumulations will be less than one quarter inch. Roadways...
especially bridges and overpasses will remain slick and hazardous
where the heaviest wintry precipitation will accumulate.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of snow... sleet... or
freezing drizzle and fog will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared
for slick and hazardous roads and highways as well as limited
visibilities. Travel is not recommended.






Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:23 PM CST on February 12, 2012

..precipitation tapering but hazardous conditions expected through
the night...

Much of the area experienced snowfall on Sunday with widespread
totals from 1 to 3 inches with isolated totals to 4 inches. While
the period of heaviest precipitation has passed... hazards will
continue overnight in the form of light freezing drizzle and
freezing fog which will create a thin glaze of ice on top of the
snow pack. With these conditions... travel will be difficult through
the overnight hours and improve after sunrise on Monday morning as
temperatures rise to above freezing.

Hundreds of traffic accidents have been reported with this storm
and non-essential travel is discouraged.






Record Report
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 12:28 am CST on February 13, 2012

... Record daily maximum snowfall set at Lubbock...

a record snowfall of 2.8 inch(es) was set at Lubbock yesterday.
This breaks the old record of 2.5 set in 1997.

Public Information Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 11:00 PM CST on February 12, 2012

... Preliminary summary of Sunday/S winter storm...

A winter storm impacted portions of the Texas South Plains region
Sunday. This as an upper air storm system emerged from the Desert
Southwest and southern rockies... causing a surge of relatively warm
and moist air aloft to overspread a low level Arctic airmass
entrenched over West Texas. Snow showers began over the western
South Plains during the pre-dawn hours Sunday morning... with
snowfall beginning in the Lubbock vicinity around 730 am CST.
Periods of heavy snow then translated from west to east across the
region throughout the day before diminishing during the late evening
hours.

Preliminary media and law enforcement reports indicate that nearly
250 weather-related vehicle accidents were recorded on South Plains
roadways and highways. Fortunately... no serious injuries or
fatalities have been reported. A majority of the incidents occurred
in Lubbock... where 188 auto accidents were reported on city streets
as of early evening.

The following snow accumulations were reported by various NWS coop
observers and first responders. These reports are preliminary... and
official snow totals will be recorded early Monday morning.

4 inches at Floydada
4 inches at Matador
3-4 inches at Childress
3-4 inches at Muleshoe
3 inches at Dimmitt
3 inches at Friona
