A National Emergency Management Agency release says the threat level s now downgraded to a beach and marine threat for all areas that were previously under land and marine threat. It says all people who were evacuated can now return. The advice remains for all areas under beach and marine threat, to stay off beach and shore areas. Doubtless Bay residents in the Far North reporting seeing a surge of water come into the harbour. The surge came!, one resident posted on social media. Over the past hour a strong surge has been flowing into Mangonui Harbour. No tsunami wave as such but more like a strong flowing river stirring up the mud and sand in the harbour.

Midland: The Sonic Ranch documentary and soundtrack on March 19th.
The film documents the band s formation from the time the three friends reconnected at group member Cameron Duddy s wedding, along with how they create their unique sound.
Lead singer Mark Wystrach
says, “Midland was not so much a band as an experiment fueled by an assortment of spirits, but mostly tequila and the possibilities painted in our imaginations. We had no record label or manager, and we had never played a show together. These recordings capture three friends, at a live-in studio in the desert, trying to make a dream come true.
Print article Each morning, with my coffee, I read the ADN, especially the letters to the editor. What started out as a chuckle has now become a full belly laugh, reading opinions expressed against Sen. Dan Sullivan, and his vote to acquit former President Donald Trump. I ask these letter writers, “Was Sen. Sullivan less of a carpetbagger last August? or last April? Anytime since his election?” No. As a 45-plus year Alaskan who has seen politicians of both political parties state legislators, U.S. senators, Congressmen come and go, here’s my opinion. The Republican party has had a stranglehold on Alaska for many years; during that time, few politicians of that party stand out as honest, moral or looking out for fellow Alaskans. Gov. Jay Hammond and U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens are among those few.
