Advisory

Winter Weather Advisory until 10:00AM Monday

* WHAT...Blowing snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 1 to 3 inches. Southeast winds gusting as high as 50 mph. Visibilities reduced to one half mile.

* WHERE...Kuskokwim Delta coast and Nunivak Island.

* WHEN...From 10 PM this evening to 10 AM AKDT Monday.

* IMPACTS...Travel may be difficult. Areas of blowing snow will significantly reduce visibility.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Southeast winds develop this evening ahead of a front expected to bring snow to the Kuskokwim Delta tonight. The areas at greatest risk of low visibility due to blowing snow are along the coast. However, blowing snow may spread as far inland as Bethel as snow pushes from west to east through the morning hours on Monday. By late morning, the front exits east and steady snowfall will transition to snow showers. In combination with warming temperatures, this will lead to an end to the blowing snow threat by midday Monday.

* AFFECTED AREAS: KUSKOKWIM DELTA

Instructions:

Slow down and use caution while traveling.
