.SYNOPSIS FOR NORTHWEST COAST...
High pressure will persist over the western Chukchi sea while low
pressure deepens over Interior Alaska. This will tighten the

and near Gale force winds through the Bering Strait through at
least Sunday night. Northerly winds will weaken slightly on
Monday, then strengthen overnight to sustained gale force winds on
Tuesday.
