Full Notification

...CORRECTION...

* WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations up to 3 inches and ice accumulations of a light glaze to one tenth of an inch.

* WHERE...Anchorage, Lower Matanuska Valley, and Southern Susitna Valley.

* WHEN...From noon today to 6 AM AKST Monday.

* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditions could impact the Monday morning commute.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Areas of mixed precipitation will return to Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valley this afternoon and continue into the overnight hours. A mix of rain, snow, and freezing rain can all be expected at some point on Sunday as temperatures in the lower atmosphere hover near the freezing mark. Typically-colder areas such as the Big Lake-Houston-Willow corridor and protected areas around Anchorage will be the most susceptible to ice accumulation. Windy conditions out of the Matanuska Valley may keep portions of Palmer-Wasilla above freezing and out of the freezing rain threat. Untreated surfaces may already be slick from freezing rain on Saturday. Additional precipitation me exacerbate the issue.

* AFFECTED AREAS: ANCHORAGE ... LOWER MATANUSKA VALLEY ... SOUTHERN SUSITNA VALLEY
