...WINTER STORM WATCH IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING...

* WHAT...Heavy snow and blowing snow possible. Total snow
  accumulations of 10 to 20 inches possible. Northerly winds could
  gust as high as 50 to 65 mph. Visibility reduced to one-half mile
  of less at times.

* WHERE...Eastern Aleutians.

* WHEN...From Tuesday morning through early Thursday morning.

* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. Areas of blowing snow
  could significantly reduce visibility.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow starting Tuesday morning picks up in
  intensity throughout the day along with the gusty northerly winds.
  The worst conditions look to be between Tuesday late
  afternoon/early evening through early Wednesday evening before
  snow rates decrease. However, gusty northerly winds, snow showers,
  and poor visibility could linger into Thursday morning. Unalaska
  could see the worst conditions and most snow accumulation with
  this storm. Akutan will also see some snow, but warmer air looks
  to change precipitation over to rain/snow mix potentially Tuesday
  afternoon and evening. Nikolski will be cold enough for all snow
  but looks to be a little too far west of the best moisture axis
  which will be over Unalaska.
