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 Apr 21, 3:29 PM AKDT, 12 hours 38 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 21, 3:29 PM AKDT, 12 hours 38 minutes before
Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED
National Weather Service Juneau AK
329 PM AKDT Thu Apr 21 2022

.SHORT TERM.../Through Friday night/...After finally seeing some
seasonably warm daytime temperatures to go along with the sunny
skies, things will change during this short term forecast period. A
large gale force low currently south of the Aleutians will
continue moving east into the Gulf of Alaska by Saturday
afternoon. The associated front and attendant precipitation will
arrive sooner, to be over the outer coast by late Friday afternoon
and then moving inland Friday night. Cloud cover will increase in
advance of the front with mostly cloudy or overcast conditions
across all of Southeast Alaska by daybreak on Friday. With that
cloud cover not here yet, overnight lows for tonight will be
getting back down to near, or below freezing once again. Cloud
cover will restrict daytime highs for tomorrow to a few degrees
cooler than what was observed today.

As the precipitation moves in, so to will small craft and gale
force winds over the eastern Gulf waters. A small craft response
to the front on the inside will not happen until Friday night and
is expected to be limited to Cross Sound, Southern Chatham Strait,
wester Sumner Strait, and Clarence Strait. Elsewhere on the
inside, look for winds in the 15 to 20 kt range.

.LONG TERM.../Saturday through Tuesday night/...The mid-range
forecast consists of mainly cloudy and rainy/showery weather.

Due to forecast highs in the 40s to 50s and lows in the 30s to
40s, we should see mostly rain from this event at sea level.
Exceptions would include higher elevation areas, like White Pass,
where some snow is possible.

Area of low pressure will track southeast through the entirety of
the mid-range forecast. A front will have already arrived in SE
AK so a rainy day is looking like a pretty good bet for Saturday.
PoPS were increased based on the NBM’s 10th and 50th percentile
of QPF (and later in the forecast period, lowered based on the
NBM’s 90th percentile of QPF).

The rain switches to on/off rain showers on Sunday as low lingers
in the gulf on that slow SE track. Sunday night into Monday, the
low will keep it’s track southeast and weaken. Because of that,
PoPS were allowed to decrease from north to south. There is some
evidence of wrap around showers so chance wording was allowed to
stay in the forecast. High uncertainty in the forecast for Tuesday
but ensemble averages have surface pressure increasing so kept
the decreasing PoPS trend going. The Monday and Tuesday PoPS
forecast is when I used the NBM’s 90th percentile of QPF to
lower chances. Though process was, if the 90th percentile is
barely picking up on 0.01 inches of QPF, then PoPS can probably be
lowered.

As far as QPF amounts, greatest amounts are still on Saturday.
And it’s the south that could see the most overall. Saturday
amounts range from a quarter to a third of an inch in the north to
half inch to an inch and a half in the south. Sunday’s amounts
range from a tenth to a third of an inch in the north with a third
to three-quarters of an inch in the south. Monday’s amounts are
looking minimal with just a few hundredths over a 24 hour period.

For marine areas – Saturday’s inner channel winds will be around
10 to 20 kts but as the low weakens through the weekend, winds
should calm. So for now, expect 5 to 15 kt winds by Sunday
afternoon. Lighter winds repeat on Monday and Tuesday.

&&

.AVIATION...Ceilings associated with the approaching front will
not be much of a factor through at least mid day Friday with no
indication of CIGS getting down below 5K ft. MVFR CIGS expected
across all of Southeast Alaska by Saturday morning with IFR over
the eastern Gulf and northeast Gulf Coast as conditions
deteriorate. Wind shear and low level turbulence will also become
an issue beginning by Friday afternoon along the outer coast and
spread inland through Friday night. Currently, thunderstorm
activity not expected with this front.
