* WHAT...Southeast winds 40 to 50 mph with gusts up to 75 mph
possible.
* WHERE...Aleutians East Borough, including Cold Bay and King Cove.
* WHEN...From Friday morning through Saturday morning.
* IMPACTS...High winds could move loose debris, damage property, and
cause power outages. Travel could be difficult.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A storm force Bering front will bring strong
southeast winds to Cold Bay and King Cove. As winds are enhanced
through the southeast to northwest oriented gap, there is medium

or greater. Uncertainty remains as to the exact orientation of the
winds as they move in, and if they will be enhanced by the
aforementioned favored gap.
