What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Juneau, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Feb 9, 3:08 PM AKST, 13 hours 18 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 9, 3:08 PM AKST, 13 hours 18 minutes before
Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Juneau AK
308 PM AKST Tue Feb 9 2021

.SHORT TERM...A frigid air mass has parked across our region,
sending some of the coldest air in some parts in several winters.
Downtown Juneau and Douglas has only managed the mid-single
digits. Skagway has failed to make it above zero as best we can
tell. Petersburg and Wrangell have barely eclipsed above ten
degrees. Sitka and Ketchikan have been stuck in the teens all
day. While normal and ho-hum in other parts of Alaska, in a region
dominated by mild onshore flow with consistent adjacent warm pools
through the Inner Channels, it is very impressive. But to place in
perspective, records have not been an issue, although close in
some spots. Sounding climatology, too has been impressive with
temperatures at 850 mb at Annette among the coldest ever seen for
the date in the decades of data, -14 C. The cold has impacted
some. Auke Bay elementary switched to online instruction due to a
frozen pipe issue.

Winds have presented an issue as well with strong wind gusts
reported in Downtown Juneau and Douglas as well as Skagway and the
Klondike Highway. Along with the frigid temperatures, estimated at
the teens below zero we have some serious wind chill issues at
White Pass. Given strong winds and persistent cold, we extend the
wind chill advisory at White Pass through 3 PM Wednesday afternoon
with a potential option later of extending it into Thursday. Will
other locations have wind chills? Certainly, we expect 20 below
around Juneau. Heavy freezing spray looks a solid bet through
Wednesday evening. Satellite confirms freezing spray through
portions of the Inner Channels and in outflow plumes across the
gulf. Near constant northerly gradients should support consistent
gales through Lynn Canal and small crafts in other northern Inner
Channels and Sumner Street.

There could be some shallow training of light snow showers in
localized areas of northeast Chichagof, eastern Baranof,
Kupreanof, and Prince of Wales Island. Webcams confirmed, but
spotter calls have proven there has been little in the way to show
for it. Thus we think these bands will be too light to be
impactful. Few changes were made as the forecasts looks good.

.LONG TERM.../Thursday through Tuesday night/...Outflow winds
subside throughout the the first half of the period and any Taku
winds impacting Juneau and Douglas will subside, as well, as the
high to our northeast in northwestern Canada weakens. It looks
like the high could get as strong as 1064mb according to model
guidance. It looks like southeast Alaska will have continued high
and dry conditions through the weekend as it stays under the high
pressure's dominance. Use extra caution, especially for the first
half of the forecast period due to the cold temperatures the very
low wind chills from what will be left of the outflow winds from
the aforementioned strong high over northwestern Canada. For
mariners, heavy freezing spray will be a possibility as well
because of the strong winds and very cold temperatures. Dress and
make any other preparations accordingly. One positive note is
that under the continued decreased cloudiness, there will be more
opportunities to see the aurora as long as the space weather
conditions are right.

Toward the end of the period, chances of light precipitation may
return as the ridge begins to slowly break down and a storm system
approaches the Panhandle. The models are slowly coming into
agreement for this solution, but the exact location and strength
of the low are still to be determined. This begins to occur around
the Monday into Monday night timeframe. The ECMWF and the GFS
have the low tracking to the south and impacting the southern
Panhandle the most. The Canadian has it tracking toward the
northern/central Panhandle. Shortly thereafter, a ridge looks to
build in from the west for up to about a day and then another
system looks to approach the area right around the Wednesday
timeframe, just beyond our forecast period. Understandably, model
agreement isn't that great on this, yet, as it is so far out in
time, but the agreement is there that there will be something
impacting our area around the end of the period. The location and
strength of the system are still up in the air.
