...Snow Showers and Gusty Winds Friday through Saturday...

A strong Bering Sea low will move into the southern Bering by
Friday morning producing strong northerly winds gusting up to 55
mph across St Lawrence Island, Bering Strait and the YK Delta
Coast. There will be elevated water offshore and high wave
heights but not expecting coastal flooding due to the northerly
wind direction. There will be occasional snow squalls producing
low visibility. Winds will gradually weaken during the day Sunday
as the storm gradually shifts into the Gulf of Alaska.
