Additional details
The area of highest accumulation has been along the Tok Cutoff from around Chistochina to Slana. Much less snow has fallen from Glennallen down to Chitina. Snow will gradually taper off the remainder of the evening. However, gusty northwest to northeast winds will develop and lead to reduced visibilities as the freshly fallen snow is lofted and blown around. The gusty winds and blowing snow will likely continue through tonight and perhaps beyond.
