...Snow and Blowing Snow Tuesday Through Thursday...

A strong weather front will begin to impact the west coast
on Tuesday. Southerly winds will increase to 30-40 mph with gusts
to 55 mph by Tuesday evening. Light snow arrives around midnight
in Point Hope and there will likely be blowing snow with lowered
visibility. By midday Wednesday, the snow may try to mix with rain
at times which would put an end to any blowing snow concerns, but
winds will continue gusting to 55 mph through Thursday morning
before subsiding during the afternoon.

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