NWS Juneau: Multiple Systems to Impact the Panhandle Early Week | November 9th, 2026

Good afternoon, Southeast Alaska. I'm meteorologist Zoe Kaplan, and I'm here to talk to you about the very active weather pattern that we're going to have coming up for this week. So through the entirety of the early week, we're pretty much having low after low hit the Panhandle. We have a low pressure system in the Gulf right now, and I'm going to show you a video that shows pretty much the wind gusts from today and this morning and going all the way through Wednesday night. And that's just going to show how many systems we do have moving into the Panhandle.

Just to give you an idea of what we're looking at for this early week. So we have a low in the Gulf right now, and, uh, as of this very moment, it's a little bit further north, but I'll stop the video here. We have a very strong swath of winds that's just off the coast right now, and that's going to continue overnight and just continue to move west. And we have another low that's going to be jumping up into the southern Panhandle through the early morning on Tuesday. And as you can see, there's the, the low center coming up right there.

And we do have some pretty strong winds with this one as well. Not nearly as strong as the last system, but they are still going to be very gusty, especially for the southern Panhandle, as this low jumps up into the central Gulf. And that's just going to continue moving northward and then again following the previous low pattern and just go westward. And so that front is just basically going to sweep through the Panhandle. It's going to be less of an issue for the northern and interior Panhandle just because of how far that low is going to be off the coast, but the southern Panhandle and the outer coast is definitely going to feel the brunt of those winds through Tuesday morning.

And surprise, we have another low that's going to be jumping up into the southern Gulf during that time around Tuesday night, just following this previous low. And with this one, we are still expecting some pretty strong gusty winds. It may be a little bit less than the previous system again, but it is still going to be pretty strong for the southern Panhandle, and it's going to be another similar situation where the low starts to weaken and then move towards the west, and those winds won't make it all the way into the northern interior of the Panhandle, but the central Panhandle, the southern Panhandle, and the outer coast will definitely be pretty gusty during those times. And that goes all the way through Wednesday morning, and we're going to see those winds impacting the coast all the way into Wednesday night. So stay tuned for more updates.

We're going to keep putting out more updates as this— with this— these systems as it gets closer. And you can check back at www.weather.gov juno for more information. Thanks.
