AVIATION
PANC...A strong southeasterly Turnagain Arm wind will persist over the terminal through early Saturday morning. Winds and gusts are likely to be strongest, with gusts 35 to 50 mph, through 4 PM before slowly diminishing, with gusts 25 to 40 mph, through around midnight. While wind are expected to continue to slowly weaken through the overnight hours into Saturday morning, occasional gusts to around 25 kt are likely to remain over the terminal through Saturday morning.
Rain showers are expected to fill back in over the terminal by late this afternoon. MVFR ceilings are likely with MVFR visibilities possible in heavier showers. The precipitation will likely taper off by around midnight. However, another round of scattered showers is likely by early Saturday morning. While VFR conditions are expected to prevail during this time, any heavier showers could result in brief periods of MVFR ceilings and visibilities.
