The National Weather Service expects 4 to 6 inches of snow to fall in Juneau and around Southeast today, continuing through Monday.<\/p>\n
A weather front is moving across the eastern Gulf of Alaska, carrying snow and rain into the Panhandle, according to an NWS winter storm warning issued Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n
The front is expected to combine with cold air already in place to produce heavy snowfall. A new weather system is expected to move in the Southeast region on Monday, when NWS expects the snow to turn to rain.<\/p>\n
Confidence levels are below average for the exact snow amounts, the storm warning stated. The forecast will be updated as more information becomes available.<\/p>\n
