The wider storm

A low pressure system moving into Bristol Bay brought strong northeasterly flow and snowshowers to the Bering Sea, along with several fronts moving through SouthCentral Alaska. This caused blizzard conditions in the Pribilof Islands, blizzard conditions in the Kuskokwim Delta, and heavy snowfall along the Edgerton Highway.
