NWS Special Statement
Statement as of 4:06 PM AKST on November 20, 2012
A developing low pressure system in the northeast Pacific will
intensify as it moves into the southeast Gulf late Wednesday night
or early Thanksgiving day. This incoming low will produce strong
winds and potentially heavy precipitation over Southeast Alaska
from late Wednesday night through Saturday.
As of Tuesday afternoon...the storm is expected to move north
across the eastern Gulf and slowly weaken there through late
Saturday night. Persistent high pressure over western Canada in
conjunction with low pressure over the Gulf will continue to
generate strong northeasterly offshore winds. Winds will continue
to be strongest over the northern Inner Channels and in the
vicinity of the Coast Mountains. At the same time...the incoming
storm will bring strong southerly winds over the central and
southern Panhandle. The adjacent coastal marine areas will be
affected with near hurricane force winds.
A relatively warm air mass will accompany the low as it moves
onshore over the Panhandle. With persisting Arctic air to the
north...potential for significant over running and heavy snowfall
cannot be ruled out completely...especially across the central
Panhandle.

NWS Special Statement
Statement as of 5:36 AM AKST on November 20, 2012
A developing low pressure system in the northeast Pacific will
intensify as it moves into the southeast Gulf on Thanksgiving
day. This incoming low will produce strong winds and precipitation
over the Alaskan Panhandle from late Wednesday night through
Saturday.
At this time...the storm is expected to move north across the
eastern Gulf and slowly weaken there through late Saturday night.
Persisting Arctic high over the Yukon will enhance northerly
strong winds across the northern Panhandle...while the incoming
storm will bring strong southerly winds over the central and
southern Panhandle. The adjacent coastal marine areas will be
affected with possible storm force winds.
A relatively warm air mass will accompany the low as it moves
onshore over the Panhandle. With persisting Arctic air to the
north...potential significant snowfall cannot be ruled out
completely...especially across the central Panhandle.
The exact track of the system is still uncertain at this moment
but confidence is increasing with each forecast update to
determine exactly which areas will see the strongest winds. If the
system tracks a little farther west than current forecasts...the
strong winds and precipitation may not reach as far to the
