Juneau is part of Alaska
Every Alaska region shares one system — the same maps, the same live radar, the same climate record. Southeast is a temperate rainforest hung on the side of a mountain range, and it is the wettest ground in the country: Ketchikan averages over 140 inches a year and parts of Baranof Island take more than 200. The wind is the other half of the story — the Taku comes off the icefield at hurricane force in winter, and the channels funnel every gale that crosses the Gulf.
