Bulletin details
We are monitoring the potential for a coastal storm around Thursday of this week. There is high uncertainty with the track of the storm as it could be anywhere from the Yukon Delta to Bering Strait. Fortunately, it doesn't appear to be a storm that would come with major impacts. However, there is a chance for minor coastal impacts and high surf due to gusty southeast winds during the first half of the storm, then west-northwest winds as the low passes through. We will continue to update as necessary throughout the week.
