A Pacific storm is bringing areas of low elevation rain, moderate to heavy mountain snow, and high winds to the Northwest. Strong Santa Ana winds and very dry conditions are producing elevated to critical fire weather conditions in southern California. Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible through early Wednesday morning across parts of northeast Texas into western Tennessee. Read More >
A long duration snow event took place across much of the upper Midwest from Sunday night, February 7th through Tuesday night, February 9th. The heaviest snow fell across an area from Minneapolis south across southern Minnesota into central Iowa toward Des Moines. Generally, about 6 to 12 inches of snow fell over the 3 day period across southeast Minnesota and northeast Iowa, with about 3 to 6 inches falling across southwest Wisconsin. Strong winds on top of the fresh snow also made drifting snow an issue in some areas.
