00:00Imagine waking up to winds so strong they can push cars off the road, and snow piling up higher than
00:06a house.
00:06That's exactly what Alaska's facing this weekend, as meteorologists warn of a monster winter storm bringing up to 7 feet
00:14of snow and terrifying 90-mile-per-hour winds.
00:18The National Weather Service says some mountain areas near the Chugich region could be buried under nearly 86 inches of
00:25fresh snow in just a few days.
00:27Meanwhile, places like the Alaska, Peninsula, and the eastern Aleutians are bracing for hurricane-force wind gusts, powerful enough to
00:36damage homes, knock down trees, and create total whiteout conditions.
00:41Forecasters are also warning about freezing rain and dangerously slick roads, making travel nearly impossible across several regions.
00:49In some areas, officials are already telling residents to avoid unnecessary travel and prepare for possible power outages.
00:57What makes this storm even crazier is the timing because it's hitting in May, when many people are already thinking
01:02about spring.
01:03And with another Pacific storm system already forming behind this one, experts say Alaska may not be out of danger
01:10anytime soon.
01:11And with another Pacific storm system, we're going to be out of danger.
