Winter Weather Advisory issued January 8 at 7:45AM AKST until January 9 at 9:00AM AKST by NWS Juneau AK

Effective: Thu January 8, 2026, 7:45 AM
Expires: Thu January 8, 2026, 3:45 PM

An atmospheric river will be impacting the area starting early Friday morning. Temperatures are expected to be slow to warm around Haines and Skagway Friday; possibly not warming above freezing until Friday evening near sea level when southerly winds with gusts to 50 mph could develop. Inland and higher elevation areas of the Haines and Klondike highways could remain snow through the entire event. For the Icy Strait corridor, warm, moist air overrunning the arctic boundary south of the area will bring accumulating snow. * WHAT...Wet Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 3 to 6 inches. * WHERE...Glacier Bay, Eastern Chichagof Island, Cape Fairweather to Lisianski Strait and City and Borough of Juneau. * WHEN...From 9 PM this evening to 9 AM AKST Friday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. Heavy wet snow will be difficult to manage due to high water content. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow will be dependent on how strong warm air aloft moves into the area. If warm air moves in quicker, bringing temperatures up faster, then less snow will accumulate and the transition to rain will be faster.

Slow down and use caution while traveling. People are urged to prepare their property before the onset of winter weather. For the latest road conditions, where available, call 5 1 1 or visit 511.alaska.gov.

Flood Watch issued January 7 at 10:50PM AKST until January 10 at 9:00PM AKST by NWS Juneau AK

An atmospheric river is expected to arrive across the panhandle starting late Thursday night and lasting through early Saturday morning. Precipitation is expected to start as snow for many areas, but will be transitioning to rain for many sea level areas into Friday. Southern panhandle is expected to switch over first Thursday night with the central and northern inner channels switching to rain sometime Friday morning. Total rainfall amounts from late Thursday night through Friday night may range around 1 to 4 inches. In addition, there is a very deep snow pack in place in the northern and central panhandle that is potentially blocking storm drains and generally allowing for ponding of rain and snowmelt in areas that they normally would not collect. * 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...From Friday morning 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... - An atmospheric river is forecast to impact the panhandle late Thursday night into Friday night. Areas around Icy Strait and Juneau may see a couple inches of snowfall before a transition to rain is expected Friday morning. Heavy rain may fall on the existing snowpack leading to increased runoff. Around 1-3 inches of rainfall is possible Friday into Friday night.

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.

An atmospheric river will be impacting the area starting early Friday morning. Temperatures are expected to be slow to warm around Haines and Skagway Friday; possibly not warming above freezing until Friday evening near sea level when southerly winds with gusts to 50 mph could develop during the transition to rain. Inland and higher elevation areas of the Haines and Klondike highways, specifically above 1000 ft, could remain snow through the entire event. For the Icy Strait corridor, continued snow showers followed by warm, moist air overrunning the arctic boundary south of the area will bring accumulating snow. * WHAT...Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 4 to 6 inches. * WHERE...Eastern Chichagof Island, Cape Fairweather to Lisianski Strait and City and Borough of Juneau. * WHEN...From 9 PM this evening to 9 AM AKST Friday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. Heavy wet snow will be difficult to manage due to high water content. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow will be dependent on how strong warm air aloft moves into the area. If the warm air takes longer to move in, snow accumulations could be up to 8 inches. If warm air moves in quicker, bringing temperatures up faster, then less snow will accumulate and the transition to rain will be faster.

An atmospheric river is expected to arrive across the panhandle starting late Thursday night and lasting through early Saturday morning. Precipitation is expected to start as snow for many areas, but will be transitioning to rain for many sea level areas into Friday. Southern panhandle is expected to switch over first Thursday night, Icy Strait during the morning hours of Friday, and Friday evening at the lastest for Haines and Skagway. Total rainfall amounts from late Thursday night through Friday night may range around 3.0 to 4.5 inches extreme southern panhandle, including Ketchikan and Metlakatla, 2.0-3.5 inches for the central inner channels including Petersburg, Wrangell, and Kake, 2.0-3.5 inches for the Icy Strait corridor including Juneau, and 1.0 to 1.5 inches for the northern panhandle near sea level. Furthermore, any snowfall accumulations on areas cleared of the deep snow pack, such as sidewalks or roadways, may cause additional runoff from melting snow. Currently expecting the snowpack to absorb most rainfall from this weekend system and produce minimal runoff. Therefore, snow, ice, or other debris could potentially blocking storm drains and allow for ponding of rain and snowmelt in areas that they normally would not collect, such as roadways. * 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...From Friday morning 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... - An atmospheric river is forecast to impact the panhandle late Thursday night into Friday night.

Heavy wet snow will be difficult to manage due to high water content. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Ongoing moderate to heavy snow showers continue through this evening before a more organized system arrives. These continued snow showers will bring another 2 to 5 inches before the larger system arrives. Snow will be dependent on how strong warm air aloft moves into the area. If warm air moves in quicker, bringing temperatures up faster, then less snow will accumulate and the transition to rain will be faster.
