An area of low pressure rapidly intensified as it moved from the Mid-Mississippi Valley northward into the Great Lakes from late in the evening of February 24th and into the morning hours of February 25th. The low then tracked northeastward into Canada during the remainder of the 25th. A secondary area of low pressure also developed along the Mid-Atlantic coastline and moved into New England. Strong winds associated with the system led to high wind gusts across northern and western Virginia.
