Heavy snow, high winds Tuesday morning
Rain and wind for Southeast
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) - A Winter Storm Warning is now in effect for Anchorage until 1 p.m. Tuesday.
Six inches of snow fell Monday in the Anchorage area and an additional 3 to 6 inches is expected Tuesday morning.
A Winter Storm Warning means severe weather could make travel hazardous. The heavy snow will also reduce the visibility so drive with headlights on and give the person in front of you some extra space.
This storm is toward Southeast Alaska. Expect rain, heavy in some areas, as well as increased winds. There is a High Wind Warning in place for Sitka and Prince of Wales Island with wind gusts out of the Southeast to 60 mph.
Yakutat will also see winds to about 45 mph and Juneau is looking at easterly winds to 25 mph and gusts to 40 mph.
