But however, the southern Panhandle will likely see some strong winds continuing into the overnight period into Friday. And as such, we have issued a high wind warning for Ketchikan and Annette Island through Friday morning with wind gusts up 60 miles per hour expected, potentially some wind gusts up to 70, uh, at elevations around 1,000 feet, 500 feet or less. And still messaging the possibility of isolated landslides in the southern Panhandle in that combination of moderate to heavy rainfall and those 40 to 60 mile per hour wind gusts.
