WHERE...Eastern Aleutians.
WHEN...From Tuesday morning through early Thursday morning.
IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow starting Tuesday morning picks up in intensity throughout the day along with the gusty northerly winds. The worst conditions look to be between Tuesday late afternoon/early evening through early Wednesday evening before snow rates decrease. However, gusty northerly winds, snow showers, and poor visibility could linger into Thursday morning. Unalaska could see the worst conditions and most snow accumulation with this storm. Akutan will also see some snow, but warmer air looks to change precipitation over to rain/snow mix potentially Tuesday afternoon and evening. Nikolski will be cold enough for all snow but looks to be a little too far west of the best moisture axis which will be over Unalaska.
