    WIND ADVISORY  


Wind Advisory issued August 27 at 2:35PM AKDT until August 28 at 4:00PM AKDT by NWS Anchorage AK

WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 4 PM AKDT FRIDAY


Areas Affected: Kuskokwim Delta Coast and Nunivak Island; Interior Kuskokwim Delta; Western Capes; Northern Bristol Bay Coast

Urgency: Expected

Severity: Moderate

Certainty: Likely

Alert Sent: Thursday 2:35pm AKDT

Alert Effective: Thursday 2:35pm AKDT

Alert Expires: Friday 8:15am AKDT (expect updated alert by this time)

Event Onset: Thursday 2:35pm AKDT

Event Ends: Friday 4:00pm AKDT

Issued by: NWS Anchorage AK


Details:
...WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 4 PM AKDT FRIDAY...

* WHAT...South to southwest winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 50
mph expected, mainly near the coast.

* WHERE...Kuskokwim Delta, Western Capes, and Northern Bristol Bay
Coast.

* WHEN...Until 4 PM AKDT Friday.

* IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects and a few
power outages may result. Travel could be difficult.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A strong front pushing inland into Southwest
Alaska will continue to bring southerly to southwesterly winds with
gusts to 50 mph expected, mainly for coastal areas. The strongest
winds look to push into Kuskokwim Bay and across the Delta this
afternoon through this evening. Following the frontal passage,
gusty onshore winds continue through Friday morning and slowly
weaken through Friday afternoon. With a long fetch of high end
small craft and gale force winds, this will result in higher waves
and rough seas along the Kuskokwim Bay coast. Even though winds are
expected to slowly decrease late Friday morning into Friday
afternoon, high seas coinciding with high tide Friday afternoon
will likely push water levels 1 to 2 feet above the normal high
tide line for the Kuskokwim Bay coast.

Information:
Secure outdoor objects.
