It’s a wintry mess Friday across Southcentral and areas of the Interior. A few avalanches occurred overnight across the state, with the avalanche danger remaining high in Southcentral. While rain, freezing rain and snow are still impacting Alaskans, the bigger impacts are shifting to the roads into Friday night.

Numerous school districts across Southcentral Alaska, including in Anchorage, the Kenai Peninsula, and the Mat-Su, closed their doors on Friday due to ongoing weather conditions that have created hazardous and icy roads.

After a weeks-long cold snap, warmer weather has reached Interior Alaska, with temperatures approaching freezing.
