...STRONG WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN FOR SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...

Strong wind gusts up to 55 mph and periods of heavy rain with
total amounts as high as 2 inches are expected. The strongest
winds and highest rainfall totals will be along the outer gulf
coast and the southern panhandle as a developing low moves up
along the NE Gulf Coast. This will increase the risk of impacts
across SE Alaska before the low makes landfall near Yakutat. A
developing front associated with the low will bring the highest
wind gusts and the greatest rainfall rates beginning during the
early morning period on Monday and lasting through the day before
conditions begin to improve through Monday night. Another strong
system will arrive in the area Wednesday and Thursday bringing
more impactful weather.
