...Additional Periods of Rain and Snow...

A second front approaches the West Coast this evening causing
another round of gusty southerly winds and snow. This next front
will be weaker and cooler than the first. Gusts peak around 25 to
35 mph south of the Bering Strait and up to 30 mph north of the
Bering Strait. Cooler temperatures will cause more precipitation
to fall as snow rather than rain, but there will still be areas of
rain/snow mix in the warmer valleys. Snow totals will generally
be 1 to 2 inches for most areas, but greater totals of 4 to 7
inches are possible along the Southern Seward Peninsula,
especially along south facing slopes.
