  NWS Freezing Rain Advisory

  Expires 12:00 PM AKST on December 20, 2005 Statement as of 8:00 AM AST on December 20, 2005 ... Freezing Rain Advisory in effect until noon for the Juneau area... The National Weather Service in Juneau has issued a Freezing Rain Advisory until noon for parts of the Juneau area. Freezing rain and sleet are occurring in the Mendenhall Valley. Temperatures remain well below freezing north of the Airport early this morning. Rain falling into the cold air is expected to freeze on contact and will make roads extremely slippery. Exposed surface will quickly become coated with a layer of ice. Temperatures at higher elevations including Mount Roberts Tram... Eaglecrest... and downtown Juneau have already risen above freezing due to increased winds with only brief icing expected as rain comes in contact with the sub freezing ground. Temperatures north of the Juneau Airport will slowly warm through the morning and expected to be above freezing by noon. Motorists should be prepared for winter driving conditions. Slow down and keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Please stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio or your favorite local weather news source for updates on this situation. This statement will be updated by noon AST Tuesday or sooner if conditions warrant.

However many secondary roadways... especially in the back of the Mendenhall Valley and out-the-Road... remain a sheet of ice. Rain will stop freezing on impact late tonight as temperatures warm above freezing. An advisory means freezing rain is already occurring. Please slow down and keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Allow yourself extra time before braking into and making turns... especially if you are traveling secondary roadways. Please stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio or your favorite local weather news source for updates on this situation. This statement will be updated by 11 PM AST or sooner if conditions warrant.
