This Wednesday afternoon featured a rather localized hail and heavy rain event across far southwest portions of South Central Nebraska, mainly impacting northern Furnas and southern Gosper Counties. For nearly 3.5 hours mainly between 130 and 5 PM CDT, a cluster of strong to severe elevated storms drifted slowly north, at times becoming nearly stationary. Early in the event, copious amounts of hail ranging from pea to quarter size were reported in the Holbrook area, with slick spots developing on Highway 6 as a result. Although no hail reports were received farther north into Gosper County, radar continued to depict a mix of hail and heavy rain affecting mainly southwest and south central portions of the county. A limited number of rain gauges in the area reported less than 2 inches, but radar estimated that at least 3 inches of rain likely fell across a small, rural portion of southwest Gosper County. After going strong for several hours, this storm cluster abruptly dissipated by 530 PM CDT. Later in the evening mainly between 930 and 1130 PM CDT, a new area of strong storms flared up in southeast portions of South Central Nebraska affecting counties such as Thayer, but these storms did not become severe.
The afternoon round of severe elevated convection evolved from a narrow line of light showers that first developed around 12 PM CDT on the Nebraska-Kansas border. This activity was driven by a subtle mid level shortwave passing through quasi-zonal flow aloft, and within a zone of modest mid level warm air/moisture advection lifting north of a well-defined surface warm stretched east-west across north central and northeast Kansas. The mesoscale environment during the afternoon featured around 1000 J/kg of most unstable CAPE but only around 30 knots of deep layer vertical wind shear.

In the early morning hours of the 27th, an 850mb warm front was draped west to east across southeast North Dakota and west central Minnesota. A strong low level jet kept redeveloping bands of strong thunderstorms, which dropped heavy amounts of rain from Moorhead to Perham to Wadena. A wide swath of two to six inches of rain fell along this line, which resulted in water flowing over fields and roads as well as streets in towns. The highest rainfall total, 5.75 inches, fell about three miles north-northwest of Wadena, Minnesota.

Intense northwest winds buffeted much of South Central Nebraska for several hours on this Thursday, with the strongest sustained speeds around 40 MPH and gusts of at least 50-55 MPH primarily focused west of a line from Ord-Kearney-Holdrege. A few of the highest measured gusts at automated airport sites within the local area included 56 MPH at both Ord and Lexington and 52 MPH at Hastings. These winds resulted in at least minor damage, including a small grain bin blown over in Lexington. Just to the west of the local area, the Broken Bow airport measured a 67 MPH peak gust.
These strong winds occurred in the wake of a cold front that passed through during the early morning hours, and were driven by the combination of a tight surface pressure gradient and deep low-level mixing up to at least 800 millibars. The strongest winds focused between the mid-morning and late afternoon hours, as a surface low pressure system deepened to around 990 millibars over southern Missouri. Surface observations at 12 PM revealed a 16-millibar gradient across the state of Nebraska, ranging from 1010 mb in the western Panhandle to around 994 mb in the far southeastern corner of the state.

The first significant, and overdue, winter storm of the 2011-2012 winter season developed over the central Appalachian region on Sunday, February 19, 2012. Temperatures had been unseasonably warm in the days leading up to the event,  resulting in warm ground conditions. It took a timely combination of colder air filtering back into the region from the north throughout the day Sunday, and then heavier bands of precipitation moving across the region late enough in the afternoon and into the evening, to get snow to begin sticking in earnest. At the conclusion, an average of five to nine inches of snow covered most of southeast West Virginia.
