.DISCUSSION...
Abnormally cool conditions with periods of snow and rain showers
will persist for the next few days. A low near the Alaska
Peninsula dissipating tonight, and a larger storm advancing along
the Aleutian Chain will promote offshore flow and breezy
conditions through terrain gaps intermittently through late
Friday. The larger storm will reach southwest Alaska by Friday
evening, allowing for showery activity into Saturday.
