Description

What

Rain and snow showers with pockets of freezing rain and freezing drizzle at times.

Where

Central/Eastern Arctic Coast/Plains.

When

Through Wednesday Morning, September 16th.

Impacts

Travel could be difficult at times. Pockets of freezing rain and freezing drizzle could lead to light ice accumulations and, as a result, slippery travel and surface conditions.

Additional details

A warm front lifting northward will allow for warmer air to overrun the colder air already in place at the surface. Precipitation will initially begin as a freezing rain/snow mix, transitioning to predominantly snow throughout the daytime hours.

Instructions

Slow down and use caution while traveling. Visit 511.alaska.gov or call 5 1 1 for the latest road conditions.
