Description
Overview
A strong system is expected to move through the area Sunday night into Monday. Temperatures below freezing combined with snow levels below 1,000 ft are indicative of snowfall for upper elevations. Mid-level southeasterly flow suggests potential for White Pass to be sheltered from much of the precipitation, but would allow for ample moisture to make it into the Haines Borough, falling as snow at the border. The winter storm watch will be upgraded to a winter storm warning for the upper elevations of the Haines Highway near Haines Customs, and replaced with a winter weather advisory for the Klondike Highway near White Pass.
What
Heavy snow possible. Total snow accumulations of 8 to 12 inches possible.
Where
The Haines Highway, near Haines Border Crossing.
When
From 3 AM to 6 PM AKST Monday.
Impacts
Travel could be very difficult.
Additional details
The upper elevations of the Haines Highway, near Haines Customs. Snow levels will steadily increase from around 500 ft to 2000 ft by Monday evening.

If you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food, and water in your vehicle in case of an emergency. For the latest road conditions where available call 511 or visit 511.alaska.gov.
