A band of heavy snow will likely develop Monday night and Tuesday morning across the YK Delta and move north up across Norton Sound and to the Foothills of the Brooks Range. This band of snow will be forming along a narrow arctic front, with some uncertainty of the exact position of this frontal zone. However, wherever this band of snow sets up, locations along the front will see the potential of 6 to 12+ inches of snow. Currently, the best chance for the heaviest snow will be across the YK Delta to E Norton Sound to the Kobuk Valley, but there remains uncertainty, so stay tuned to the local forecast.
