THIS EVENING. THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE PANHANDLE IS STARTING TO
SEE THE STRONG NORTH WIND WITH HIGH GUSTS THIS MORNING NEAR
INTERIOR PASSES OVER THE NORTHERN GULF AND OVER THE NORTHERN

AGREEMENT WITH SLOWLY RETROGRADING UPPER HIGH ACROSS THE BERING
SEA AND BUILDING SURFACE HIGH OVER THE ALASKAN PANHANDLE THROUGH
