AVIATION

PANC...VFR conditions will persist through the period, with ceilings generally remaining above 5,000 ft. An approaching front will likely lead to gusty southeasterly winds out of the Turnagain Arm this evening, peaking around 30 kt between about 06Z to 12Z tonight. While winds diminish around 12Z, there is some uncertainty with the wind direction. Have leaned towards a weaker southeasterly wind; however, if these light winds becoming more northerly, there could be a period of low-level wind shear between about 12Z and 21Z tomorrow morning. After 21Z, gusty southeasterly winds return.
