Details

* WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations up to 3 inches and ice accumulations up to one tenth of an inch. Winds gusting as high as 45 mph, mainly along the Inlet.
* WHERE...NW Kenai Peninsula, SW Kenai Peninsula, and Skilak Lake.
* WHEN...Until noon AKST Tuesday.
* IMPACTS...Travel could be difficult. Along the coast, gusty winds could bring down a few tree branches. Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will likely become slick and hazardous overnight into early Tuesday morning.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Areas of light snow will transition to freezing rain before becoming all rain with above freezing temperatures Tuesday morning. There is increased confidence in a quicker warm-up, meaning less snow accumulation and a quicker changeover to rain. Areas at sea level will likely see little snow accumulation, with most of the accumulation expected at higher elevations, including the Homer Bluffs.
