...RESUSPENDED ASH FROM KATMAI-NOVARUPTA EXPECTED OVER KODIAK
ISLAND THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...
Strong northwesterly winds with gusts up to 55 mph are expected
across Shelikof Strait and the waters around Kodiak Island through
Friday night. These winds have resuspended ash from the 1912
Katmai- Novarupta eruption aloft, potentially causing haze and
trace amounts of ash accumulation at the surface. The communities
of Karluk, Akhiok, and Larson Bay are most likely to be affected.
Those with respiratory ailments in these areas are encourage to
avoid or reduce outdoor activity to avoid inhaling the ash. Those
in sensitive groups and with respiratory ailments are encouraged
to avoid or significantly reduce time outdoors through Friday to
reduce the amount of ash inhaled.
Winds are expected to diminish Saturday, which should cause the
ash to settle out of the atmosphere.

...Elevated Water Levels Saturday and Sunday...
A strong low pressure system moving into the Western Bering Sea
will bring elevated water levels 1 to 3 feet above the normal high
tide line on Saturday and Sunday. The highest water levels will be
with the high tide each afternoon from Nunam Iqua south including
Scammon Bay, Hooper Bay, and Chevak. Winds will be primarily
offshore from the southeast, but larger than normal tide cycles
due to the nearly full moon and the strength of the storm will
bring in elevated water. The strongest winds will not coincide
with the highest water levels, so significant wave run-up or
coastal flooding are not expected.
