DISCUSSION
A FRONT WILL BE MOVING WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE AREA TODAY WITH
WESTERLY TO SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT, WHICH WILL FAVOR HATCHER
PASS, THE CHUGACH FRONT RANGE, AND COASTAL VALDEZ/THOMPSON PASS.
HI-RES MODELS MAY BE OVERDOING QPF AMOUNTS DUE TO UPSLOPE FLOW FOR
THESE AREAS WITH THE MOST LIKELY SOLUTIONS PRODUCING 5-7 INCHES
OF SNOW FOR HATCHER PASS AND 3-5 INCHES OF SNOW FOR THE FRONT
RANGE. THE FRONT WILL BEGIN IMPACTING VALDEZ/THOMPSON PASS MID-
DAY AND LINGER THROUGH THE NIGHT FOR 3-5 INCHES OF TOTAL SNOW
ACCUMULATION. SIMILARLY TO THE PREVIOUS SNOW EVENT, THERE IS
POTENTIAL FOR SNOW TO TRANSITION TO FREEZING DRIZZLE AS
PRECIPITATION COMES TO AN END AS THE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE BECOMES
UNSATURATED.
LOOKING AHEAD, A ROBUST ARCTIC TROUGH WILL DRIVE DOWN FROM
SIBERIA AND BRING DEEP NORTHERLY FLOW ACROSS SOUTHCENTRAL ON
THURSDAY, DROPPING TEMPERATURES AND INCREASING GUSTY NORTHERLY
WINDS. EXPECT STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS FOR ALL AREAS THROUGH FRIDAY,
WITH ESPECIALLY STRONG WINDS THROUGH WHITTIER, SEWARD, AND
THOMPSON PASS.
