Heavy rainfall is expected to impact Southcentral by early
Saturday morning through late Saturday evening. The heavy
rainfall is expected to begin first across the Eastern Copper
River Basin, then spread westward through the afternoon. This
swath of rainfall will continue to move westward into the
Talkeetna Mountains and the Matanuska and Susitna Valleys,
Anchorage Bowl, and the Kenai Peninsula by midday Saturday
through late Saturday evening.
Outdoor recreators and commuters are encouraged to use extra
caution when traveling this upcoming weekend. Ponding of water,
rapid local stream rises, and water runoff are a possibility where
heavy rainfall occurs. Look for the rainfall to diminish by early
Sunday morning.
