...WIDESPREAD PROLONGED RAINFALL THROUGH TUESDAY AND STRONG ONSHORE
WINDS THROUGH MONDAY...

A storm moving in from the Bering Sea will bring widespread,
prolonged rainfall to Southwest Alaska through Tuesday.

- Rain amounts: Through Tuesday afternoon, widespread rainfall
  amounts of an additional 1 to 2 inches are expected across
  Southwest Alaska, with locally higher amounts possible (up to 3
  inches for the Western Alaska Range).

- Timing of heaviest rain: For Kuskokwim Delta and Bristol Bay,
  this morning. For Alaska Peninsula and Southwest interior (Lake
  Iliamna region and along the Western Alaska Range), Monday into
  Tuesday.

- Winds and water levels: For coastal areas from west of
  Dillingham to the Western Capes (including the communities of
  Togiak, Goodnews Bay, and Platinum), southerly sustained winds
  of 25 to 35 mph will persist through Monday afternoon. This
  could bring water levels up to 1 foot above the mean high tide
  line. Winds will be strongest early Monday morning.

Preparedness: Check the forecast for the latest updates, especially
if you plan to be outdoors or traveling. Along Bristol Bay, beware
of gusty winds and high water levels along the coast.
