... Blizzard watch in effect from late tonight through Wednesday
morning along the coast...
... Wind Chill Advisory remains in effect until noon akst today
along the coast...
The National Weather Service in Anchorage has issued a blizzard
watch along the coast... which is in effect from late tonight through
Wednesday morning. A Wind Chill Advisory remains in effect until
noon akst today along the coast.
A strong weather front will approach the Kuskokwim Delta late
tonight bringing strong east to southeasterly winds to the area.
Winds will increase overnight to 25 to 40 mph while snow begins to
fall associated with the frontal boundary. Snow and blowing snow
may reduce visibility to one quarter mile or less at times for a
period until temperatures warm up to near freezing... bringing an
end to the blizzard conditions.
A blizzard watch means there is a potential for falling and/or
blowing snow with strong winds and extremely poor visibilities.
This can lead to white-out conditions and make travel very
dangerous.
North winds of 10 to 20 mph combined with temperatures well below
zero are resulting in wind chills of 25 to 45 below zero this
morning along the coast.
A Wind Chill Advisory means that very cold air and strong winds
will combine to generate low wind chills. This will result in
frost bite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not taken.
