Winter Weather Advisory until 07:00AM Friday
* WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations of 2 to 5 inches and ice accumulations of up to one tenth of an inch.
* WHERE...Anchorage.
* WHEN...From 7 AM Thursday to 7 AM AKDT Friday.
* IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the morning and evening commutes.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Light snow will develop this morning. Warmer air aloft moving over the region is expected to change the snow to a wintry mix of snow and freezing rain sometime around noon Thursday. The wintry mix may then change back to all snow by late Thursday evening before tapering off early Friday morning. This is a complex setup. The amount of snow and ice accumulation will depend on the extent of warm air aloft. Higher snow totals and less ice accumulation are likely if colder air remains in place over the region.
* AFFECTED AREAS: ANCHORAGE
Instructions:
Slow down and use caution while traveling. For the latest road conditions call 5 1 1 or visit 511.alaska.gov.
