Rain rates have decreased overnight however, showers will continue through Saturday as an atmospheric river with multiple surges of moisture is expected to continue through the weekend. Heavy rain is rapidly melting the recently fallen snow in previously cleared areas. * WHAT...Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt continues. * WHERE...Downtown Juneau, Douglas, Mendenhall Valley, Lemon Creek. * WHEN...Until 900 PM AKST Saturday. * IMPACTS...Storm drains and ditches are clogged with snow, ice, and other debris. Ponding of water in areas is occurring. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - At 129 AM AKST, Numerous reports across the Juneau area indicate street flooding and ponding of roadways with minor flooding is ongoing. Between 1.0 and 2.0 inches of rain have fallen in the last 24 hours. Additional rainfall amounts of 0.5 to 1 inches are possible through Saturday night, with locally higher amounts within heavier showers. The existing deep snowpack is not expected to produce much, if any, runoff. Recently fallen snow on areas previously cleared of the existing snowpack are expected to produce the highest runoff from rapid snowmelt.

Flood Watch issued January 9 at 9:30PM AKST until January 10 at 9:00PM AKST by NWS Juneau AK

Effective: Fri January 9, 2026, 9:30 PM
Expires: Sat January 10, 2026, 9:30 AM

An atmospheric river with multiple surges of moisture has moved into the panhandle and is possible to last into Sunday evening. Precipitation has mostly transitioned to rain past the Icy Strait corridor, and is still expected to transition for the northern inner channels overnight Friday. Snow levels are roughly 1500 to 2500 feet above sea level along the Icy Strait corridor through the southern panhandle. A brief, distinct lull in heavy rainfall is expected overnight Friday night into Saturday morning for the southern half of the panhandle, before another surge of moderate to heavy rain. Additional rainfall amounts from Friday night through Saturday night look to range around 1.5 to 3.0 inches in the southern panhandle, including Ketchikan and Metlakatla, 1.0 to 2.0 inches for the central inner channels including Petersburg, Wrangell, and Kake, 0.75 to 1.5 inches for the Icy Strait corridor, 1.0 to 2.0 for the Juneau area, and 1.0 to 1.5 inches for the far northern inner channels near sea level. Currently, expecting the snowpack to absorb most rainfall from this weekend system and produce minimal runoff in the northern half of the panhandle with a deep sea level snowpack. Therefore, snow, ice, or other debris could potentially block storm drains and allow for ponding of rain and snowmelt in areas that they normally would not collect, such as roadways or walkways. Another surge of moisture is looking increasingly likely for the southern half of the panhandle overnight Saturday and continuing through Sunday, and therefore, the flood watch was extended. There is growing confidence that very strong rain rates during the morning hours for the Ketchikan, Metlakatla, and Prince of Wales Island, with around a 40-60% chance for 3 hour rates exceeding 0.4 inches. This surge in precipitation may coincide with another surge of wind gusts, with sea level gusts possibly reaching as high as 50 mph Sunday evening. The southern panhandle could see 1.5 to 3.0 additional inches, the central inner channels could receive 1.0 to 2.0 additional inches, the Icy Strait corridor could receive 0.75 to 1.5 additional inches, and the Juneau area could receive 1.5 to 2.5 additional inches. Stay tuned for more information. * WHAT...Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt continues to be possible. * WHERE...The following areas, Eastern Gulf Coast and Central Inner Channels. This includes the cities of Gustavus, Hoonah, Tenakee Springs, Elfin Cove, Pelican, Angoon, And Juneau. * WHEN...Through Saturday evening. * IMPACTS...Storm drains and ditches are clogged with snow that may cause ponding of water in these poor drainage areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Around 0.75" to 1.50" of rain occurred today along the Icy Strait corridor and Juneau area. Numerous reports of ongoing flooding over roadways and parking lots due rain and runoff across the Juneau and Hoonah areas today. Heavy rain will continue to fall on the existing snowpack which lead to increased runoff and ponding of water in poor drainage areas during the watch time frame. Through Saturday evening, an additional 0.75 to 1.25 inches for the Icy Strait corridor, with localized higher amounts possible, especially for Juneau. Depending on how culverts and storm drains behave during this upcoming rain, along with the additional rainfall of around 0.75 to 2.5 inches, with higher amounts near Juneau, the flood watch may be extended into Sunday.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop. Flooding may occur in poor drainage areas. Storm drains should be kept clear of debris as much as possible. Stay tuned to further developments by listening to your local radio, television, or NOAA Weather Radio for further information.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
