...VERY COLD WEATHER EXPECTED... Wednesday through the weekend, cold arctic air will return to the Panhandle, bringing single digit air temperatures to many communities in the central panhandle and NE Gulf Coast, with temperatures near 10F to 15F in the southern Panhandle. Current forecast reflects the coldest temperatures arriving to the central panhandle by late week and to the area around Kupreanof Island and Hyder by the weekend. These cold air temperatures, combined with gusty outflow winds, could bring dangerous wind chill values as well. Frostbite and hypothermia are possible if exposed to these temperatures for extended periods of time. Of particular concern are the elderly, along with those without adequate shelter. Make preparations now. Prepare vessels and homes for cold weather through the week.
