UPDATE

The next round of widespread rain (transitioning to showers) along a weakening front is moving across SEAK today, although rainfall amounts, while locally heavy at times, will still be less than what we saw across portions of the area Thursday into Friday. We are watching a weak area of low pressure move just south of Yakutat today, with cool midlevel air east of the low steeping midlevel lapse rates just enough to warrant keeping convection/showers with a few thunderstorms in the forecast for today into this evening. Visibile satellite imagery from GOES 18 is also indicating scattered TCU buildups over the eastern GulfAK this morning as expected moving generally to the east and northeast. Growth in the TCU is not tall enough to get lightning it seems so far today, but we will continue to monitor. 05/garmon

AVIATION UPDATE

It going to be another one of those days where we go from upper MVFR to low end VFR to upper end IFR to lower end MVFR as scattered showers move across each TAF site. Showers today are not producing gusts to near gale force like yesterday, as column growth on the showers are not high enough and the environment is a bit different. The widespread showers will continue into the evening and overnight. We could see enough low level clearing tonight for some fog again south, but confidence at this point is not high for more fog. 05/Garmon
