High pressure will bring another fairly quiet day across southeast Alaska. Marine layer remains along the coast and could bring low stratus or fog. Further inland, expect passing high clouds and mild temps with highs generally in the 60s. Winds will remain light, with afternoon sea breezes 5 to 10 mph. Pattern change coming by mid week as a front brings rain to Yakutat by Tuesday night, then pushing into the panhandle on Wednesday.

Posted Sunday September 13th, 2026 at 9pm:

Hope you enjoyed the nice weather over the weekend because it will be ending rather soon. One more day of drier weather expected for the panhandle Monday before we dive straight back into an active weather pattern. A weakening front will be arriving mid week bringing rain and some wind (mainly for the northern panhandle). Active weather looks to continue after that point with onshore flow and a series of fronts moving into the panhandle for late week into next weekend. Temperatures will also be cooling down to closer to normal for this time of year (upper 50s to near 60 for highs).

The patchy fog along the outer coast and under the marine layer have dissipated, and sunshine has started to make an appearance where the clouds were. Rest of the panhandle will see sunny weather for rest of today.

Dense fog has developed near Yakutat and across portions of western Prince of Wales Island (Klawock, Craig, Tokeen, and Naukati Bay area), with visibilities down to a quarter mile or less at times. If you're traveling this morning, slow down, use your low beams and fog lights, and leave extra following distance.

The fog and marine layer will retreat through themorning, giving way to another day of mostly sunny skies with highs in the low 60s to low 70s by this afternoon.

Blue skies can be seen across the panhandle this morning as benign weather dominates the forecast. Some high clouds will filter over the northern panhandle Saturday, but for the most part the entire panhandle will remain dry and sunny this weekend. A low marine layer along the coast is now starting to pull out of Yakutat, but is still lingering along the northeastern Gulf Coast. This is expected to push back inland along the Gulf Coast and into Cross Sound overnight.

Today was definitely a warm start to the weekend! Take a look at some of the high temperatures across the panhandle. Klawock was our winner today with a record breaking daily high temperature of 79°F, beating the previous record high temperature of 70°F on this day in 2013. Elsewhere, we saw mid to upper 60s, some low 70s, and clearing skies. Enjoy the next few days as we settle into this dry pattern. Chances for rain increase going into next week.

Good evening Southeast AK, enjoy the dry and mostly sunny weekend! Satellite imagery shows clouds moving south out of the panhandle, bringing an end to the recent rainfall. High pressure building in the Gulf will clear skies and warm temperatures through the next few days. Expect highs tomorrow in the mid 60s across a majority of the region, with inland and southern areas reaching the low 70s.

For mariners, winds within the inner channels will remain elevated tonight into early tomorrow morning, with 15 to 25 knot northerlies likely within our north-south oriented channels, trending on the decline through the day.
