Winter Weather Advisory issued November 26 at 2:08PM AKST until November 28 at 12:00PM AKST by NWS Juneau AK

…SNOW POTENTIAL CONTINUES FOR PORTIONS OF SE ALASKA…

.Lingering low pressure over the NE Gulf of Alaska will cause
bands of showers to track over the area. Lack of moisture with
the system thus far has caused lower snowfall, reducing the
expected storm total accumulation.

For Petersburg, a strengthening system incoming from the west will
push warm air northward Wednesday afternoon with a wintry mix.
Overnight, northerly, cold air is expected to move in and
transition any mix over to wet and dense snow. As more cold air
moves in, snow will become increasingly fluffy and dry.

For Hyder, an all snow event from the aforementioned system will
move inland, bringing the main moisture feed to the Misty Fjords
area, including Hyder. Cold, continental air from the east will
keep snow dry and fluffy throughout the event, accumulating
quickly Thursday morning.

* WHAT…Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 4 to 5
inches.

* WHERE…Petersburg Borough.

* WHEN…From 9 PM Wednesday to noon AKST Thursday.

* IMPACTS…Travel could be difficult.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…Wintry mix transitioning to snow Wednesday
evening will begin to accumulate as wet and dense snow. Through
the night, snow characteristic will begin to shift drier as
colder air moves in.
