...CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PANHANDLE SNOW SATURDAY WITH POTENTIAL FOR MORE SNOW SUNDAY... .Light scattered to numerous snow showers will pass over the region Friday night with accumulations of up to 2 inches. Through Saturday morning, a low will track across the central gulf and bring steady accumulating snow to the area with rates increasing through the afternoon. As the low center tracks eastward through Saturday afternoon and evening, south to southwest wind will cause temperatures to warm over the southern outer coast with a mix or change to rain. Snow will then end on the NW side of the low, from Sitka to Juneau northward. Moisture will decrease overnight Saturday across the south, but then redevelop on Sunday as another system moves in. The rain/snow line will likely hover in vicinity of Sumner Strait Sunday into Monday with potential additional heavy snow for the Petersburg and Wrangell areas and lighter snow northward. A separate low pressure system looks to affect the region on Tuesday with potential for snow to push northward again. * WHAT...Heavy snow expected.
