.DISCUSSION...
A series of warm systems continue to bring high elevation snow and
low elevation rain to southcentral Alaska. Another round of heavier
precipitation will move across this evening and overnight with snow
levels generally remain in the 2500 to 3000 foot range. This places
Thompson Pass in a tricky forecast position. Rain is expected to
fall from Valdez up to the pass, with rain/snow mixing near the top
of the pass itself. Near or even just over an inch of liquid
equivalent is expected to fall... so areas that remain snow should
receive near a foot or more of dense, heavy snowfall with snow
ratios struggling to reach 10:1. Strong winds at ridge-level today
will abate tonight, but the lull will be short-lived as winds
increase again Thursday afternoon into the overnight hours.
Precipitation will be near continuous for the coastal mountains as
another wave moves in Thursday evening into early Friday as a front
associated with a low moving northward in the Gulf pushes north.
Snow levels will gradually fall to about 1-2kft Friday. Little, if
any, precip will make it far north as the Talkeetnas or even the
Chugach front.
