Light rain and snow will meander around the Interior. Locations above 2000ft have the highest chance for snow through Monday night but snow levels continue to drop to 1000ft Tuesday. Valley locations, including Fairbanks, may see some snowflakes mix in with rain beginning Tuesday night with flurries lingering into Wednesday. Little to no accumulation is expected in the valleys through Wednesday afternoon. Between 1000-2000ft, up to 1 inch of snow is possible but there will be melting as the snow reaches the ground. Above 2000ft, 1 to 3 inches of snow is possible through Wednesday afternoon. Another round of light snow is becoming more likely Wednesday night into Thursday with minor accumulations possible, even in Fairbanks.

When a severe thunderstorm warning is issued, the storm may produce damaging winds, large hail, dangerous lightning, and heavy rain. In some cases, heavy rainfall produced by a severe storm can also lead to flash flooding. Do not drive vehicles through flooded areas. The water depth or fast flowing water/mud/debris from a flash flood will make road conditions unsafe. Do not rely soley on data presented here or other third-party websites - always check your official national and local weather service agency website, socials, radio and/or TV stations for making critical decisions related to weather events.
