Good afternoon, Southeast Alaska. I'm meteorologist Zoe Kaplan, and I'm here to talk to you about the strong front that we have moving in starting Wednesday night, but mainly impacting the Panhandle Thursday and into Friday morning. So we have this low in the western Gulf that's sending a strong front up directly into the Panhandle, and that's going to bring a lot of moisture with it. And so we're expecting heavy rainfall starting late Wednesday night for the far southern Panhandle and moving north to northeastward into the rest of the Panhandle through Thursday morning, and that will continue into Friday morning. So flood watches have been issued for this time frame for parts of the southern and central Panhandle.
