    Alaska Weather March 5 Morning - Blizzard Warning
    Mar 5 2026
    Good morning. Alaska. I'm Aaron Jolly. Six degrees outside right now, but here's the wild part. Alaska's temperature spread this morning? Seventy degrees. From the Interior's deep freeze to Southeast's almost-spring warmth. In the next 24 hours. Let's start where it hurts. The Interior woke up at minus 27 degrees. Wind chills hit minus 42. That's the kind of cold where your breath freezes mid-air. Sunshine today pushes you to 2 degrees by afternoon. Tonight, clouds roll in with snow showers developing. Friday brings the real action — 1 to 3 inches of snow likely, with highs climbing to 11 degrees. Southcentral starts at minus 5 under clear skies. Wind chills near minus 18 early. Clouds move in by mid-morning. And snow's possible after 9 A.M. You'll hit 17 degrees today. Friday looks snowier — 70 percent chance with 1 to 2 inches and highs jumping to 29 degrees. Now Southeast. Practically balmy. Snow showers early flip to rain by mid-morning as temperatures climb to 40 degrees. Friday brings heavy rain with highs near 44. That's 45 degrees warmer than the Interior's morning low. Two different planets. The alerts matter. A Blizzard Warning kicks in at 6 P.M. For Bristol Bay — 3 to 11 inches of snow, gusts to 40 miles an hour, whiteout conditions. The Western Kenai Peninsula gets a Winter Storm Warning starting at 11 P.M. — 5 to 10 inches with blowing snow killing visibility. Looking ahead. Friday and Saturday bring storms statewide. Then bitter cold returns early next week. The Interior could see minus 40 again by Tuesday morning. Spring equinox is two weeks away, but winter's not done with us yet. If you're in the Interior. That cold doesn't negotiate. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

  • Blizzard Warning | Alaska Weather

    Blizzard Warning | Alaska Weather
    Feb 26 2026
    Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Alaska Weather Podcast — it's Thursday, February 26th. Folks, this is the kind of cold that doesn't just bite. It claws. An arctic airmass has clamped down on Alaska. And it's digging in hard. The numbers are brutal, but the wind chills? They're what'll get you. Here in Southcentral, you stepped outside to minus 5 degrees this morning. But that north wind gusting to 25 miles an hour? It makes it feel like minU S Two6. That's frostbite-in-minutes territory. We climb to 5 degrees this afternoon under sunny skies. Tonight drops to minU S One4. Now push north to the Interior. Fairbanks hit minus 35 degrees overnight. Wind chills could sink to minus 35 degrees by this evening. Your high today? MinU S One7. Tonight crashes back to minus 35 degrees. This is the kind of cold where your breath freezes mid-air. Down in Southeast, it's a completely different story. Snow showers are dumping 1 to 3 inches through this morning before tapering off. Highs reach 26 degrees. Tonight falls to 12, but that northeast wind makes it feel like zero. A Blizzard Warning is up for Isabel Pass through 3 P.M. today. Whiteout conditions from blowing snow. Thompson Pass is seeing gusts to 85 miles an hour. If you're traveling those passes, delay your trip. Looking ahead.. This deep freeze isn't budging. Southcentral slowly warms into the teens by early next week. The Interior stays locked in the minus 30s and minus 40s through the weekend. Southeast gets more snow Saturday into early next week. We're gaining nearly 6 minutes of daylight today. Spring equinox is three weeks out. But winter? It's got unfinished business. Cover every inch of skin if you're heading out. Seriously. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
