...HEAVY RAIN THIS WEEKEND FOR YAKUTAT AND THE NORTHERN GULF COAST... A low pressure system will bring increased moisture toward Yakutat and the northern gulf coast Saturday night and Sunday. This event will not be long in duration, with the heaviest rain starting around midnight Saturday night and lasting through Sunday afternoon. It will bring heavy rain during most of the event, with the most likely scenario being 2 to 4 inches of rain through Sunday afternoon. There is a 20% chance that rainfall totals approach or even slightly exceed 4 inches. That being said, no flooding is expected at this time. There are likely to be rises in river levels, but soil moisture is still low (around 50% to 60%). This means that most of the rain will be absorbed into the ground. We will continue to monitor the development of this system and any possible impacts. Additionally, the low pressure system is expected to bring deteriorating marine conditions into Sunday afternoon. Seas could build to 10 to 15 ft, with gale force easterly winds possible along the northern Gulf coastal waters through sunday morning.
