==DISCUSSION==
BLIZZARD CONDITIONS WITH POOR VISIBILITY IN SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW
CONTINUE.
HEAVY SNOW COMBINED WITH EASTERLY WINDS GUSTING UP TO 60 KM/H TODAY
ARE BRINGING BLIZZARD CONDITIONS TO ARVIAT. AS THE SNOW TAPERS OFF
LATER THIS EVENING AND WINDS EASE, VISIBILITY WILL IMPROVE.
TRAVEL WILL BE HAZARDOUS DUE TO NEAR-ZERO VISIBILITY. LIMIT TRAVEL
AND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES, IF POSSIBLE.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO MONITOR ALERTS AND FORECASTS ISSUED BY
ENVIRONMENT CANADA. TO REPORT SEVERE WEATHER, SEND AN EMAIL TO
