Including the cities of Thompson Pass
416 AM AKST Sat Dec 6 2025
...BLIZZARD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 AM AKST SUNDAY...
* WHAT...Blizzard conditions expected. Total snow accumulations
between 5 and 10 inches possible. Winds could gust as high as 60
mph. Wind chills falling to as low as 35 below zero by Sunday
morning.
* WHERE...Thompson Pass.
* WHEN...Until 6 AM AKST Sunday.
* IMPACTS...Visibilities reduced to one quarter mile or less due to
snow and blowing 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, along with additional snowfall
expected and strong gap winds, will likely lead to snow and
blowing snow that may severely reduce visibility. Snow is likely
to taper off starting Sunday morning, however, gusty winds will
persist.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are
expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds
and poor visibilities are likely. This will lead to whiteout
conditions, making travel very hazardous. Persons should delay
travel if possible. If you must travel, have a winter survival kit
with you, and make sure your car is winterized and in good working
order. If you get stranded, stay with your vehicle.
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.

1030 AM AKST Sat Dec 6 2025
...SNOW FOR THE NORTHERN PANHANDLE THIS WEEKEND...
.A pattern change is bringing colder temperatures and strong
outflow winds extending southward through the weekend. This

dense as the event goes on following the drying trend. Cold
temperatures are expected to continue to spread southward into
early next week, increasing potential for a long duration snowfall
event.
