Summary

The wet pattern is only kicking into gear, but unfortunately, elevated snow levels mean that the lower mountains will be primarily rain. From Wednesday into Saturday, the Chugach and Alyeska will see nearly non-stop precipitation. Storms arrive on Wednesday afternoon, Thursday evening, and Friday night. Sunday's storm may hold off until the evening to leave dry conditions for most of the day.
