NWS Special Statement Statement as of 12:14 PM AKDT on June 20, 2012 ...Warmer temperatures to make an appearance Friday and Saturday but do not hide the jackets yet... Temperatures are expected to rise into the 70s Friday and Saturday is looking to be even warmer...potentially into the low 80s especially over the northern Inner Channels regions. Coastal locations should expect sea breezes during the afternoons and evening to inhibit the warm temperatures there. The very warm temperatures are due to a very warm pool of air moving from British Columbia to the Panhandle. The last time the temperature rose to 70 degrees or warmer in Juneau was last July. These warm temperatures will increase snow melt in the mountains and raise water levels of streams and rivers. Some notable rivers expected to see significant rises include the Alsek, Chilkat, Taiya, Skagway, Mendenhall, Taku, Stikine, and Salmon. A few of these rivers could see near bank full water levels and we will continue to monitor them for any potential statements. Taking a dip in the water on such a warm day may be tempting but use caution since the water will be cold. The warm temperatures will be limited to just a couple of days before cooler air moves inland from the ocean. High temperatures on Sunday will be roughly 10 to 15 cooler than Saturday and Mondays highs will be back to the upper 50s.
