Description

What

Mixed precipitation likely. Total snow accumulations between 6 and 15 inches. Ice accumulations around a trace.

Where

Ernestine.

When

From 11 AM this morning to noon AKST Tuesday.

Impacts

Travel could be very difficult. Visibility could be significantly reduced within heavy snow.

Additional details

A band of light snow is expected late this morning before tapering off this afternoon. A second round of heavier snow is likely this evening through Tuesday morning. The higher-end snow amounts are expected towards the north side of Thompson Pass with the lower-end snow totals expected to the north. Freezing rain potential is decreasing with this system, although it cannot be fully ruled out. There is a 10 percent or less chance of freezing rain mixing in with the snow as temperatures look cold enough for all snow. Tonsina is not expected to see much snow accumulation from this system.

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