Description
What
Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations up to 3 inches and ice accumulations up to one tenth of an inch. Winds gusting as high as 45 mph, mainly along the Inlet.
Where
NW Kenai Peninsula, SW Kenai Peninsula, and Skilak Lake.
When
From 11 PM this evening to noon AKST Tuesday.
Impacts
Travel could be difficult. Along the coast, gusty winds could bring down a few tree branches. Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will likely become slick and hazardous overnight into early Tuesday morning.
Additional details
The timing of precipitation has changed and the advisory start time has been pushed back to tonight. For mid to late this afternoon, expect a brief period of light snow with little to no accumulation. The evening hours will then be mostly dry before precipitation moves back in during the overnight hours. Snow will transition to freezing rain overnight before becoming all rain with above freezing temperatures Tuesday morning. There is increased confidence in a quicker warm-up, meaning less snow accumulation and a quicker changeover to rain. Areas at sea level will likely see little snow accumulation, with most of the accumulation expected at higher elevations, including the Homer Bluffs.
Instructions
Slow down and use caution while traveling. For the latest road conditions call 5 1 1 or visit 511.alaska.gov.
