Hurricane force wind warning. Totally normal for Alaska, lol. Something with the word hurricane being issued by the Anchorage forecast office. Maybe that does happen occasionally, but it still seems so weird. I keep forgetting about Hurricane Arthur in the lower 48 earlier this year, but I think the last two states have had more hurricane-ish weather around them this year.
