Winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.
-
WHAT: Coastal flooding, with water levels of 1 to 2.5 feet above the normal highest tide line, and 30 to 40 mph southwest winds with gusts up to 40 to 55 mph.
-
WHERE: Kuskokwim Delta Coast, including Kipnuk, Kwigillingok and Kongiganak.
-
WHEN: Until 10 AM AKDT Wednesday, highest water levels expected during each upcoming high tide through Wednesday morning.
-
IMPACTS: Coastal flooding of low lying areas and erosion are possible.
-
ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Steady south to southwesterly flow is expected to continue for the Kuskokwim Delta coastline through Wednesday morning as a series of low pressure systems track across the Bering Sea. Coastal erosion and minor coastal flooding will be possible with each upcoming high tide due to the persistent onshore winds, during which maximum water levels will reach between 1 and 2.5 ft above the normal highest tide line, including in and around Kipnuk and Kwigillingok. The strong winds may reduce the ability for flood waters to recede during and close to low tide, possibly leading to prolonged higher than normal water levels along the coast and near the mouth of the Kuskokwim River. There will be a break in strong winds between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning, however, we are monitoring the potential for another strong storm system that could cause additional coastal impacts towards the end of this week.

A coastal flood advisory indicates that onshore winds and tides will combine to generate flooding of low areas along the shore.
