...MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN AND WINDY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
PANHANDLE MONDAY...

A system will bring a series of fronts across the panhandle
beginning Sunday night and lasting through the day Monday, with
heaviest precipitation across the southern panhandle. Heaviest
rainfall is expected during Monday afternoon associated with the
second front as it pushes into the southern panhandle. Rain rates up
to 0.15 inch per hour are possible as this heavier band moves
through. At this time, the highest confidence for seeing these
higher rain rates is for Annette Island and Ketchikan.

Confidence continues to increase for 24 hour rainfall totals on
Monday between 2.00 and 3.00 for Annette Island and Ketchikan, and
between 1.00 and 2.00 inches for Prince of Wales Island. Localized
areas may see either higher or lower amounts due to the terrain
influence.

Winds are expected to increase into Monday morning following the
first front, with gusts up to 40 mph possible during the day.
