Warning Description: Winter Storm Warning

Warning Date: 10:26 PM EST on February 8, 2010/

WarningSum:...Winter Storm Warning Remains In Effect Until Noon Cst /1 Pm
Est/ Wednesday...

Warning Message:A Winter Storm Warning is in effect.
* Timing...snow will continue across the region overnight and
  increase in intensity somewhat. The snow will continue through
  Tuesday night. Blowing and drifting snow with near blizzard
  conditions in open areas can be expected Tuesday night into
  early Wednesday.
* Accumulations...snowfall rates will generally be light to
  moderate...however the very long period that the snow will be
  falling over will allow storm total snowfalls of 8 to 10 inches
  to accumulate by late Tuesday night.
* Hazards...in addition to the long duration accumulating 
  snowfall...northwest winds will increase to 15 to 25 mph with 
  gusts to 35 mph late Tuesday and will continue through 
  Wednesday morning resulting in significant blowing and 
  drifting snow. The potential exists for ground blizzard and 
  near white out conditions to develop in rural areas late 
  Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. 
* Impacts...travel is likely to be significantly hampered during
  the snow storm overnight through Wednesday morning. Due to the
  long duration of light to moderate snowfall even major roads and
  highways may become snow covered. Blowing and drifting snow
  Tuesday night into early Wednesday will result in near ground
  blizzard conditions in outlying areas making travel extremely
  dangerous.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A Winter Storm Warning means significant amounts of snow...
sleet...ice...or strong winds are expected or occurring. This
will make travel very hazardous or impossible. If you must
travel...keep an extra flashlight...food...and water in your
vehicle in case of an emergency.
