Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Juneau AK Issued by National Weather Service Anchorage AK 330 PM AKDT Wed Apr 23 2025
SHORT TERM...A low continues to track into the central Gulf this afternoon, extending a warm front over the panhandle.
Currently, light precipitation has been observed over a majority of the panhandle as of this discussion, having spread from south to north with the approaching system. Precipitation is keeping as rainfall near sea level, with some light snow at higher elevations. Area roadways, such as the Klondike Highway near White Pass, may see low accumulations of wet snow. The front is expected to stall and train over the area, which will continue to overspread light to moderate precipitation over the panhandle through the remainder of the work week. A weak barrier jet has formed along the eastern Gulf coast, promoting near gale-force winds along the Gulf coast waters. For the inside waters, particularly east west oriented channels will see fresh to moderate breezes with gusts to strong breeze as the front lifts inland this evening.
LONG TERM
/Friday through Wednesday/
The low currently in the Gulf is expected to continue tracking northeast in the Gulf by Friday. Showers will diminish into the evening Friday as the low center moves inland and weakens. Relatively drier conditions are expected for Southeast Alaska into the weekend given the exiting low pressure system. Light rainfall may persist as the axis of moisture shifts increasingly over the southern portion of the region, including Sitka and Prince of Wales Island. Ensembles trend towards the open wave trough solution. From there operational models diverge. Another surface low and associated front is expected in the western gulf and impacting SE AK early Monday into Tuesday. Model agreement is increasing towards a elongated northwest oriented trough to push over much of SE AK, bringing a return to widespread rainfall and near gale-force winds along the Gulf coast waters.

AVIATION...A warm front settled over the panhandle has deteriorated conditions, with widespread MVFR conditions predominant. Conditions will occasionally dip to IFR for a few locations, particularly for places like Haines and Yakutat, as moderate bands of rain move through. Expect SE-ly LLWS near 30kts around 2000ft and turbulence associated with the approaching front over the outer coast through the remainder of this afternoon.
Conditions will largely remain similar tonight into Thursday for the outer coastal areas and the northern half of the panhandle, though the southern panhandle will see some improvement during this time frame.
MARINE...Near gales along the N and NE gulf coast have developed this afternoon as a low takes up station in the central gulf and pushes a warm front into the panhandle. Winds to gradually diminish as the low shifts north and inland out of the area. Fresh breezes will extend SE along the gulf coastal waters and continue into Thursday. Seas 8 to 10 ft for coastal waters by this afternoon to maintain this evening, with increasing SSW swell tonight into Thursday as follow on cold front impacts the panhandle.
Inside waters will largely see fresh breezes develop, with moderate breezes limited to east west oriented channels as the front approaches. Slight slackening of winds this evening before picking up once more with the approaching cold front.
