Details

* WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations between 3 and 8 inches and ice accumulations around a light glaze.
* WHERE...NW Kenai Peninsula.
* WHEN...Until 7 AM AKST Monday.
* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditions will impact the Monday morning commute. Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will likely become slick and hazardous. Heavy wet snow and ice accumulations could lead to power outages.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow will develop by early Sunday morning and continue into early Monday morning. Warmer air will work in aloft by late Sunday night resulting in areas of mixed snow and freezing rain. There is increasing confidence in a band of steady snow falling across this region later today. If this band remains over the Kenai and Soldotna area for an extended period of time, there is a greater chance (40-50%) for higher end snowfall amounts.
