NOAA special weather statement for Homer, through Mat-Su. A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE WEATHER IS ON THE HORIZON ACROSS THE AREA. CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING THAT ACCUMULATING SNOW WILL RETURN TO INLAND AREAS OF THE KENAI PENINSULA UP THROUGH ANCHORAGE AND INTO THE MAT-SU VALLEY THURSDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY. SOME ACCUMULATING SNOW IS VERY LIKELY...BUT THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR THIS TO TURN INTO THE MOST SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL OF THE YEAR SO FAR FOR MANY AREAS. THERE REMAINS CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY WITH SOME KEY ASPECTS OF THE FORECAST...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THE EXACT DETAILS SHOULD CONTINUE TO IMPROVE WITH TIME. THE SECOND ASPECT OF THIS CHANGING WEATHER PATTERN WILL BE THE ARRIVAL OF WHAT WILL LIKELY BE THE FIRST PERIOD OF SIGNIFICANTLY BELOW- AVERAGE TEMPERATURES FOR THE YEAR SO FAR. BY LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY STRUGGLE TO RISE ABOVE THE SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE ZERO...WITH NIGHTTIME TEMPERATURES BELOW OR PERHAPS SIGNIFICANTLY BELOW ZERO.
