High Surf Advisory: Southern Seward Peninsula Coast

retained text

High Surf Advisory — Southern Seward Peninsula Coast
Severity: Minor. Certainty: Likely.
* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 2 to 4 feet above the normal high
tide line.

* WHERE...Southern Seward Peninsula Coast.

* WHEN...Until 4 AM AKDT Tuesday.

* IMPACTS...For Nome and Golovin, water levels have peaked and
will begin to gradually drop on Saturday. While water levels
remain near their apex, in Nome, this can result in water
approaching low-lying homes in Belmont Subdivision with
standing water expected in the port area. For Golovin, water may
inundate any beach property but the roads, buildings and
residences shouldn't be impacted as the water remains below the
berm. Even though water levels drop somewhat, they will remain
normal through early next week. Localized beach erosion may
occur.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...South to southwest winds will continue to
gust up to 40 mph through the weekend. Strong winds continue
into early next week.
