...MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL CONTINUES THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING... 

A series of fronts is bringing multiple rounds of moderate to heavy 
rainfall across the Alaska Panhandle as of early Friday morning. 
This second round of heavy rain has brought around 2 to 3 inches of 
rainfall to the area over the last 24 hours, with ongoing moderate 
rainfall rates of around 0.1 to 0.2 inches reported within the last 
hour. An additional 0.5 to 1 inch of rain is expected into late 
Friday morning as this system pushes out of the area. Highest rain 
amounts are expected for Baranof and Admiralty Islands, with locally 
lower or higher amounts possible due to terrain effects. Heaviest 
rainfall rates will come to an end through Friday morning with 
intermittent rain showers continuing through Friday afternoon across 
the area.

While these forecasted rain amounts are expected to bring rises to 
small creeks and rivers in the area, there is no flooding 
anticipated at this time.

Stay tuned to weather.gov/juneau as we continue to monitor the  
situation and update our forecast.
