UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WITH AXIS EXTENDING NORTH OVER THE GULF OF
ALASKA TO THE CENTRAL INTERIOR WILL PERSIST THROUGH SAT

WEST SIDE OF THE RIDGE WILL BRING SNOW NORTH OVER THE WEST COAST
ON SATURDAY...WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF FREEZING RAIN MIXING FOR
ZONES 214...215...AND 216. THE RIDGE WILL DRAW WARMER AIR OVER THE
ALASKA RANGE WHICH WILL ALSO GIVE A CHANCE FOR FREEZING RAIN
MIXING WITH SNOW OVER ZONES 221...222...223...225...AND 226 FOR
SUNDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. DOWN SLOPING WILL LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF
PRECIPITATION TO THE NORTH OF THE RANGE.

...FREEZING RAIN POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY...

A STRONG LOW PRESSURE CENTER DEVELOPING OVER THE NORTH PACIFIC
WILL MOVE NORTH THROUGH THE BERING SEA SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. THIS
SYSTEM WILL RESULT IN STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW ACROSS MAINLAND ALASKA
OVER THE WEEKEND WITH TEMPERATURES RISING ABOVE FREEZING IN SOME
LOCATIONS FROM THE LOWER YUKON RIVER VALLEY AND PORTIONS OF THE
SOUTHERN INTERIOR.

IN ADDITION TO THE WARM TEMPERATURES...THIS WEATHER SYSTEM WILL
BRING A MIXED BAG OF PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE REGION. SNOW AND
LIGHT FREEZING RAIN OR RAIN ARE POSSIBLE OVER THE LOWER YUKON
RIVER VALLEY AND SOUTHERN INTERIOR BEGINNING SATURDAY NIGHT AND
PERSISTING INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.

FROM FAIRBANKS EAST...THE ALASKA RANGE WILL BLOCK MUCH OF THE
PRECIPITATION AND THERE STILL IS SOME UNCERTAINTY HOW MUCH OR IF
ANY FREEZING RAIN WILL OCCUR. WEST OF FAIRBANKS THE LIKELIHOOD FOR
A PERIOD OF FREEZING RAIN IS MUCH HIGHER.

THIS WEATHER PATTERN IS MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE THAT BROUGHT THE
GREAT FREEZING RAIN EVENT OF NOVEMBER 2010. IF FREEZING RAIN DOES
OCCUR...AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT.
