AREAS AFFECTED : KUSKOKWIM DELTA
* WHAT...Water levels up to 4 feet above the normal highest tide
line.
* WHERE...Kuskokwim Delta coast, especially Kwigillingok and
Kongiganak.
* WHEN...The highest water levels from the storm will coincide
with high tide from tonight through tomorrow morning.
* IMPACTS...Impacts could be similar to those from the recent
January 10 flood event. Water could push up through gaps in
the ice and cause localized flooding for coastal communities,
particularly between Kipnuk and Kwigillingok. Strong onshore
winds could also push pieces of sea ice up onto the shoreline.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Coastal flooding is possible as a second
storm moves into the Kuskokwim Delta this evening through
tomorrow morning with south to southeast winds gusting as high
as 40 to 50 mph. This storm surge is looking to coincide with
the timing of high tide.
