...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON...

A stronger atmospheric river is expected to move over the panhandle
beginning early Thursday morning and continuing through at least
Friday morning. Multiple waves moving up will bring persistent
moderate to heavy rain for much of the southern half of the
panhandle. Past early Friday morning, additional periods of heavy
rain are possible, but confidence is moderate to low at this time.
Prolonged periods of moderate to heavy rain will produce significant
river rises with the potential for at least minor flooding.

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.

* WHERE...The following area, Southern Inner Channels. This includes
the cities of Ketchikan And Metlakatla.

* WHEN...From Thursday afternoon through Friday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, other low-lying areas and flood-prone locations.
Street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Rain totals between early Thursday morning and late Friday
morning for the Ketchikan and Metlakatla area are currently
expected around 4 to 6 inches, with higher rain totals favoring
southern facing mountainsides. Highest rain rates are currently
expected during the late morning through evening timeframe on
Thursday, where rates could exceed 0.3 inches per hour.

If the additional heavy rain moves into the southern panhandle
late Friday morning and continue through Friday afternoon, up to
an additional 1.5 inches is possible. The chances of this to
occur are around 30% at this time.
