A weak disturbance on Sunday resulted in a seeder/feeder process and a period of light snow across much of the area with up to an inch falling. Bands of occasionally moderate sleet pushed across north Mississippi into southeast West Tennessee during Sunday evening, February 14th.  The main mid-level trough rapidly strengthened and became negatively titled as it approached the Mid-South during the morning hours of Monday, February 15th.  Precipitation rapidly developed over the Lower Mississippi Valley and spread northeast into the Mid-South by sunrise. Strong lift and deep moisture through the dendritic growth zone resulted in heavy winter precipitation during the morning hours before the system lifted to the northeast by mid-afternoon. Mainly snow fell across east Arkansas, the Missouri Bootheel, and Northwest Tennessee. A warm layer aloft, due to the rapidly strengthening nature of the system, resulted in a period of heavy sleet from northwest Mississippi into the Memphis area through southwest Tennessee before precipitation changed to all snow. A mixture of sleet, snow and a little freezing rain fell across northeast Mississippi. Four to seven inches of snow and sleet fell across areas west of a Tunica, MS to Somerville, TN to Union City, TN line.  One to three inches of sleet and some snow fell to the southeast of this line.
