UPDATE...Update for the long term and aviation sections
MARINE
Inside(Inner Channels): Winds across the inner channels have come down quite a bit through Monday afternoon and will continue to do so through Monday night. Two exceptions will be at opposite ends of the panhandle, with southerly winds up to 20 kt holding on a bit longer up near Taiya Inlet, and then a short wave moving through the southern panhandle bringing some gusty winds through the early evening hours along with some heavier rain showers. After tonight, another more organized system will move into the southern gulf and push another front up through the panhandle bringing widespread winds up to 25 kt northwards.
Outside (Gulf and Coastal Waters): Winds in the gulf continue to be 15 to 20 kt or less with the continuing onshore flow pattern but erratic gusts from heavier convective showers near the coastline cannot be ruled out. Significant wave heights that reached as high as 10 to 13 ft across the gulf will continue to subside north of Cape Edgecumbe before building once more with the approach of the next system. Winds of 25 to 30 kt are anticipated with the Tuesday front and along with seas building up to 10 to 15 ft, with highest seas expected in the southeast gulf. This low will bring in some more partially unstable air, so there is a chance for more scattered thunderstorms to develop Tuesday and Tuesday night.
