URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Juneau AK
356 PM AKDT Tue Mar 17 2026

...HIT OR MISS SNOW SHOWERS CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEK...

.The Winter Weather Advisories have been expanded in area and
extended in time through Thursday morning as scattered to
numerous bands snow showers are expected to continually push into
the panhandle through the late week. Another organized band is
likely to push through the area late Tuesday night through
Wednesday morning. Snowfall accumulations of 6 to 10 inches are
expected through Thursday, with some locally higher amounts
possible. However, accumulations will be limited during the
daytime due to warmer temperatures as we move into late March. In
addition, snowfall accumulations will be widely variable across
the advisory areas due to the hit or miss nature of the showers,
however rates as high as 1 inch per hour will be possible within
any heavier showers that repeatedly move over the same location.
Advisories could be upgraded to short-fuse Winter Storm Warnings
if heavier snow showers continue over the same area.
