NWS Special Weather Statement 400 PM AST Thu Nov 30 2006 ...Potential for another significant snowfall over portions of northern Southeast Alaska this weekend... ...Warmer temperatures will spread north through next week... The potential exists for another significant snowfall over the north-central and northern Panhandle this weekend as the cold air in place will be slow to moderate Saturday and Sunday. While it is too early to determine with confidence where and how much will fall before conditions warm up enough to change to rain...a band of heavy snowfall will likely develop somewhere over the north-central to northern Panhandle where 1 to 2 feet of snow is already on the ground. Preparation for removing snow from structures that cannot take heavy snow loads is recommended. In addition...a rapid warm up will occur over the southwest coastal sections from Salisbury Sound to Dixon Entrance...to include the Sitka area...by early Saturday. Freezing levels will quickly rise on Saturday to above 5000 ft with moderate to heavy rainfall possible through Sunday. Snow melt and heavy rain may cause mudslides and significant runoff into small streams...low lying areas...poor drainage areas...and culverts. A significant pattern change is forecast to continue through next week with temperatures moderating to normal or above with several systems bringing mainly rain into Southeast Alaska.

Subject: Tsunami Warning and Watch #3 issued 11/15/2006 at 4:46AM PST
A Tsunami Warning is in effect which includes the Alaska coastal
areas from Sand Point, Alaska to Attu, Alaska.
A Tsunami Watch is in effect for the Washington, British
Columbia and Alaska coastal areas from Cape
Flattery, Washington to Sand Point, Alaska.
A Tsunami Warning means that all coastal residents in the
warning area who are near the beach or in low-lying regions
should move immediately inland to higher
ground and away from all harbors and inlets
including those sheltered directly from the
sea. Those feeling the earth shake, seeing
unusual wave action, or the water level rising
or receding may have only a few minutes before
the tsunami arrival and should evacuate immediately.
Homes and small buildings are not designed
to withstand tsunami impacts. Do not stay
in these structures.
All residents within the warned area should
be alert for instructions broadcast from
their local civil authorities. This tsunami
warning is based solely on earthquake information
- the tsunami has not yet been confirmed.
A Tsunami Watch means that all coastal residents in the
watch area should prepare for possible evacuation.
A tsunami watch is issued to areas which
will not be impacted by the tsunami for at
least three hours. Watch areas will either
be upgraded to warning status or canceled.
At 3:14 AM Pacific Standard Time on November
15, an earthquake with preliminary magnitude 8.1 occurred near the Kuril Islands, Russia. This earthquake may have generated a tsunami. If a tsunami has been
generated, the waves will first reach Shemya,
Alaska at 4:24 AM AKST on November 15. Estimated
tsunami arrival times and maps along with safety rules and other information can be found on the WCATWC web site.
Tsunamis can be dangerous waves that are not survivable.
Wave heights are amplified by irregular shoreline
and are difficult to predict. Tsunamis often
appear as a strong surge and may be preceded
by a receding water level. Mariners in water
deeper than 600 feet should not be affected
by a tsunami. Wave heights will increase
rapidly as water shallows. Tsunamis are a
series of ocean waves which can be dangerous
for several hours after the initial wave
arrival. DO NOT return to evacuated areas
until an all clear is given by local civil
authorities.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Ewa Beach, Hawaii will issue messages
for Hawaii and other areas of the Pacific
outside the states and provinces listed above.
Additional messages will be issued every
half hour or sooner if conditions warrant.
This tsunami warning and watch will remain
in effect until further notice. For further
information stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio,
your local TV or radio stations, or see the
WCATWC web site.

The following list gives estimated times of arrival for locations along the North American Pacific coast from a tsunami generated at the given source location. The list is ordered geographically from the California- Mexico border to Attu, Alaska following the North American coastline. Since tsunami speed is directly related to water depth, tsunami ETAs can be computed independent of tsunami amplitude. THE LISTING OF A TSUNAMI ARRIVAL TIME BELOW DOES NOT INDICATE A WAVE IS IMMINENT.
