Juneau itself appears to be safe — for now at least.
Tom Ainsworth in the Juneau office of the National Weather Service says, “For the Juneau area, it’s highly unlikely that there will be significant waves felt this far in the inner channels.”
Capital City Fire Rescue reported on their Facebook page that there is “no local evacuation ordered in Juneau.”
