Western Alaska will continue to see storm after storm as we
progress through the week. There is increasing likelihood that a
much stronger storm will impact the West Coast and Western
Interior Thursday into Friday. Potential impacts from this storm
include southerly high winds of 40 to 55+ mph and blowing snow,
heavy snowfall transitioning to rain, and then a changeover back
to more snowfall along a strong arctic front into the weekend.
Given the warmth of the airmass and the amount of liquid
precipitation, travel will become quite difficult late week into
the weekend.
There is still some uncertainty regarding the strength and
positioning of the storm. Stay tuned for future updates as details
are ironed out in future forecasts.
