...Windy With Snow and Blowing Snow Tuesday into Wednesday...

A strong weather front will begin to impact the west coast
on Tuesday. Southerly winds could gust between 30 and 50 mph and
there could be near blizzard conditions in snow and blowing snow.
The strongest winds and lowest visibility are expected in the
Bering Strait and Saint Lawrence Island. Snow and strong winds
will develop over the Seward Penninsula, Yukon Delta coast
and Northwest Alaska Tuesday evening into Wednesday.

There is still much uncertainty on this exact storm track,
so forecasted conditions could change.

Residents near the coast should be vigilant of these potential
impacts and stay tuned to the latest forecast updates at
