The National Weather Service said an Arctic cold front today could produce as much as 4 inches of snow in Fairbanks and as much as 6 inches in parts of the Alaska Range by Thursday morning. A wind advisory also is in effect through today for Fairbanks.
Denali Park could get 2 to 4 inches of snow, and parts of the eastern Alaska Range near Tok could get as much as 6 inches, said meteorologist Scott Berg with the National Weather Service in Fairbanks.
If that’s not bad enough, temperatures are expected to drop dramatically and remain below normal through the middle of next week.
“There are two fronts coming down, the first one with moisture and the second one with cold air,” Berg said. “We could actually see a little bit of rain before it mixes in with or turns to snow (tonight). It depends on when the cold air comes in.”
Once the cold gets here, it’s expected to stick around for several days, Berg said. Temperatures are expected to be 10 to 15 degrees below normal, with highs in the 30s and lows in the single digits, at least into early next week, Berg said.
“I don’t see a whole lot of warm air even into the middle of next week,” he said.
That means there’s a good chance the temperature will not hit 50 degrees in the month of April. The high so far this month has been 47, which it hit Tuesday.
The average temperature of 15 degrees so far this month is 14.9 degrees below normal as of Tuesday, according to the weather service.
The new snow could push Fairbanks’ total winter snowfall above average. As of Tuesday, 62.1 inches of snow had fall so far this winter at Fairbanks International Airport. The normal snowfall through that date is 63.6 inches.
Fairbanks has received 5.4 inches of snow this month, which is almost double the normal snowfall — 2.9 inches — for the month.
Yeah it was snowing this morning. Jeeeez. It feels like Texas out when cold fronts would come through there. It amuses me how everyone worries about their Ice Classic tickets when it's colder than normal haha
Mmm Enya..
