National Weather Service ANCHORAGE AK
319 AM AKDT Tue Aug 13 2024

Forecast is based on forecast start time of 0300 AKDT on August 13.
.DISCUSSION...

Northwest of Unalaska Island, expecting mostly light and variable
winds with wave heights around 4 feet this morning gradually
diminishing through the day. Overcast skies with very low stratus
and possibly fog will persist through the morning hours until
southeasterly winds begin to increase in the region through the
day. Expecting terrain to block most of the wind on the northwest
side of the island, but gusts out of the southeast will become
more likely over time, especially by the afternoon. This will
allow the low stratus/fog to become scoured out through the day.
