...Snow Squalls Possible Saturday and Sunday...

A couple waves of energy will bring the potential for snow squalls
Saturday through Sunday night. Squalls are notoriously quick in
nature, but can bring brief heavy bursts of snow and wind gusts up
to 35 mph which can reduce visibility below 1 mile at times. Snow
accumulations of 1 to 3 inches is possible, with the heaviest
expected in the Western Seward Peninsula and most of it coming
Saturday night through Sunday.
