... Extremely unusual late-season snowfall Friday evening through
Saturday morning...

Confidence is increasing for a significant late season snowfall
Friday evening through Saturday morning across southcentral Alaska.
Cold air sweeping in from the northwest will interact with abundant
moisture over the area to produce significant snowfall. Winter
weather advisories for snow have been issued for the Anchorage
bowl... Matanuska Valley... and the Susitna Valley from Talkeetna
north. Friday should start with a mixture of rain and snow across
these areas. Precipitation will change to predominately snow as cold
air arrives late Friday afternoon or early evening. Snow should
increase in intensity Friday night and continue through early
Saturday afternoon. Grassy areas will see the most snow... with paved
surfaces taking the longest to cool down enough for snow to stick.

Please stay tuned to the latest National Weather Service forecasts
for the most up-to-date information about this unusual late season
event.
