The wider storm

Tight presure gradient associated with a low over Kotzebue Sound, combined with Bering Sea moisture created blizzard conditions over the western Seward Peninsula and high winds across St Lawrence Island. Blizzard conditions were reported at Tin City, and winds gusted to 60 mph at the Gambell AWOS.
