 Special Weather Statement
Statement as of 3:24 PM AKST on January 6, 2009 |
... Another winter storm likely later this week...
Another weather system moving into the area will likely bring
heavy snow over much of the Panhandle Thursday night into Friday.
Snowfall amounts... while still uncertain at this time... may
exceed one foot in some areas by Friday evening. The higher water
content of the snow will increase stress on roofs already covered
by heavy snow from previous events. People with flatter roofs are
encouraged to clear off the snow that is already on their roof to
minimize the risk of damage.
