A Winter Storm Watch for blizzard conditions means there is a potential for falling and/or blowing snow with strong winds and extremely poor visibilities. This can lead to whiteout conditions and make travel very hazardous.

* WHAT...Blizzard conditions possible. Total snow accumulations between 2 and 6 inches possible. Winds could gust as high as 45 mph. Visibility as low as one quarter mile. * WHERE...Kuskokwim Delta Coast and Nunivak Island. * WHEN...From this evening through Wednesday evening. * IMPACTS...Visibilities reduced to one quarter mile or less due to blowing snow. Travel could be very difficult. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The best chance for blizzard conditions will be north and west of Kipnuk, including Toksook Bay, Mertarvik, and Mekoryuk. For locations from Kipnuk south and east, temperatures are expected to rise into the 30s during the day Wednesday. The warmer temperatures will likely limit the severity of blowing snow and may allow for rain to mix in with the snow by Wednesday afternoon.
