Thompson Pass-
Including the cities of Thompson Pass
436 AM AKST Sun Dec 7 2025
...BLIZZARD WARNING NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL NOON AKST TODAY...
* WHAT...Blizzard conditions. Additional snow accumulations less
than an inch. Winds gusting as high as 60 mph.
* WHERE...Thompson Pass.
* WHEN...Until noon AKST today.
* IMPACTS...Visibilities reduced to one quarter mile or less due to
blowing and drifting of snow. Travel could be very difficult.
Frostbite may occur in as little as 10 minutes on exposed skin.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...An arctic airmass will continue to drive
colder air and strong winds through Thompson Pass. The combination
of snow already on the ground and strong gap winds will continue
to produce areas of blowing snow that may severely reduce
visibility. Winds will gradually start to decrease this afternoon.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are
expected or occurring. Blowing snow with strong winds and poor
visibilities are likely. If you must travel, have a winter survival
kit with you. Leave plenty of room between you and the motorist
ahead of you, and allow extra time to reach your destination. Avoid
sudden braking or acceleration, and be especially cautious on hills
or when making turns. Make sure your car is winterized and in good
working order. If you get stranded, stay with your vehicle.
For the latest road conditions call 5 1 1 or visit 511.alaska.gov.
Persons are urged to stay indoors until conditions improve. If you
must go outside, dress in layers. Several layers of clothes will
keep you warmer than a single heavy coat. Cover exposed skin to
reduce your risk of frostbite or hypothermia. Gloves, a scarf, and a
hat will keep you from losing your body heat.

350 AM AKST Sun Dec 7 2025
...EXTREME VESSEL ICING POSSIBLE FROM NORTH AND WEST OF NUNIVAK
ISLAND TO CAPE NEWENHAM THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON...
Northeasterly winds in combination with Arctic Air surging south
across the Bering Sea is likely to lead to extreme vessel icing
at rates of 4 cm per hour or greater.
As colder air filtering in from the Arctic, northerly winds will
intensify across the eastern Bering Sea. These factors will cause
extreme freezing spray to spread south and west from the Kuskokwim
Delta. Heavy to extreme freezing spray will extend from Cape
Newenham to north and west of Nunivak Island beginning Saturday
morning. Extreme freezing spray is also possible out of Kvichak
Bay as far west as Cape Constantine. Winds diminish on Monday,
which should cause icing rates to decrease by Monday afternoon.
Operating a vessel in heavy to extreme freezing spray is
hazardous. Freezing spray may render mechanical and electronic
components inoperable. Rapid ice accretion on decks and
superstructures may result in catastrophic loss of stability.
