A storm that forecasters are describing as unusually strong for this time of year is on track to bring rain and heavy winds to parts of Anchorage as well as the eastern Kenai Peninsula and Kodiak this weekend.
“What we have is a pretty well-developed low center that’s moving up along the Alaska Peninsula, and bringing along some heavier rains and gustier winds,” said Michael Kutz, a forecaster with the National Weather Service’s Anchorage office. “It’s going to be some pretty significant weather.”
On Anchorage’s Upper Hillside winds up to 35 mph with gusts up to 55 mph were likely late Sunday morning through the afternoon, the weather service said in the statement. The eastern Kenai Peninsula can expect to see winds between 15 and 30 mph and gusts to 45 mph with the strongest gusts likely Sunday morning. In Portage Valley and along eastern Turnagain Arm, gusts up to 60 mph were possible Sunday morning.The National Weather Service urged Seward Highway drivers in the Turnagain Arm area to use caution, especially in higher-profile vehicles, due to the potential for wind gusts to be “very strong and erratic” from Saturday night through Sunday.
