.DISCUSSION...
.UPPER AIR...
THE MILD TREND CONTINUES OVER SOUTHCENTRAL AND MAINLAND SOUTHWEST
ALASKA. THE UPPER LEVELS RIDGE CONTINUES TO BUILD ALONG THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST COAST INTO B.C. WITH A TROUGH THROUGH THE AK WEST COAST AND
CENTRAL ALEUTIANS. OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS THE PATTERN AMPLIFIES WHILE
THE RIDGE SLIDES OVER THE SOUTHEAST PANHANDLE. THIS WILL PRODUCE A
SLIGHTLY WEST OF DUE SOUTH FETCH PROGRESSING DIRECTLY INTO THE CAPE

FEATURE OF CONCERN WILL INTENSIFY IN THE UPPER LEFT QUADRANT OF THE
