AVIATION

PANC...A frontal system moving into Southcentral will lead to breezy and rainy conditions for much of the TAF period today into tonight. Generally MVFR ceilings and visibility are expected as precipitation begins at the terminal early this morning. There could still be a rain-snow mix at the very onset in the early morning, but temperatures will otherwise be warm enough for rain for the rest of the day. Gusty southeast winds will continue to pick up ahead of the front through this afternoon, with peak gusts around 30 kt with potential for 35 kt anticipated during the early to mid afternoon.

Conditions will likely improve to VFR as the front passes through this evening around 03 to 06Z as rain ends and ceilings rise. Gusty winds will turn more out of the south at about the same time, with 20 to 30 kt gusts expected to persist overnight tonight into early Monday morning.
