What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this gale warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this gale warning went out at Sep 20, 9:00 AM AKDT, 14 hours earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 20, 9:00 AM AKDT, 14 hours before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA 200 PM ADT TUE SEP 20 2005 .DISCUSSION...FALL IS IN FULL SWING OVER THE STATE AS A SERIES OF STRONG LOWS IS SET TO BLAST THROUGH THE BERING SEA THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE FIRST LOW IS CURRENTLY NORTH OF ATTU AROUND 988 MB. IT WILL MOVE JUST WEST OF ST LAWRENCE ISLAND WEDNESDAY AND THEN RAPIDLY WEAKEN AS THE SECOND...AND MORE POWERFUL...LOW DEVELOPS NEAR ATTU WEDNESDAY. THE SECOND LOW WILL RAPIDLY MOVE AND STRENGTHEN TO AROUND 968 MB THURSDAY AS IT REACHES ST LAWRENCE ISLAND. IN THE UPPER LEVELS THE 250 MB JET STRETCHES OF NORTHERN JAPAN UP TO THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS WHERE IT REACHES A MAXIMUM OF ABOUT 135 KNOTS. THE JET THEN WEAKENS FROM THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS TO SOUTH OF THE GULF OF ALASKA. THIS JET WILL FEED THE DEVELOPING LOW AND HELP PUSH IT BELOW 970 MB. BY LATE IN THE WEEK THE JET WILL EXTEND FROM THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS NORTHEASTWARD INTO SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA. WHAT THIS MEANS IS A LOT OF SOUTHWEST FLOW OVER MOST OF THE STATE THROUGH LATE IN THE WEEK. LOOKS FOR QUITE A BIT OF RAIN AND STRONG WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THESE SYSTEMS. HOWEVER THE MOST SIGNIFICANT IMPACT OF THESE STORMS WILL PROBABLY COME FROM THE STORM SURGE THAT WILL MOVE INTO SOUTHWESTERN ALASKA OFF THE BERING SEA. THERE WILL BE TWO DISTINCT SURGES. THE FIRST ONE WILL COME WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AS THE WAVE SWELL FROM THE FIRST LOW REACHES THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA AND NORTON SOUND. A SECOND...AND LARGER..SURGE WILL COME TO THESE SAME AREA THURSDAY AS THE SECOND LOW PUSHES THROUGH THE BERING SEA. BY THURSDAY THE BERING SEA WILL NOT ONLY HAVE A STRONG LOW IN IT TO GENERATE A WAVES BUT IT WILL HAVE A NUMBER OF DAYS WITH PERSISTANT SOUTHWEST WINDS OVER IT TO ASSIST WITH A SIGNIFICANT SURGE. FROM THE 12Z RUN THIS MORNING THE NAM AND GFS MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH BOTH THE STRENGTH AND MOVEMENT OF THESE LOWS. THE ONLY CONCERN IT THE CONSISTENCY IN FORECAST DEPTH OVER THE LAST THREE RUNS. THERE WAS A 10 TO 12 MB DEEPENING OF THURSDAYS LOW BETWEEN RUNS YESTERDAY, BUT THIS MORNINGS RUN PUTS THE DEPTH RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PREVIOUS RUNS. SINCE THE MOVEMENT HAS REMAINED GOOD I AM WILLING TO ACCEPT THE AVERAGED DEPTH ON THIS MORNINGS 12Z RUN AND BELIEVE IT WILL BE IN THE BALLPARK. THE RENEGADE MODEL IS THE UKMET MODEL THAT WANTS TO SPLIT THE LARGE LOW INTO TWO SMALLER LOWS THURSDAY. THIS DOES NOT SEEM VERY LIKELY AS THERE IS NO APPARENT REASON TO SPLIT THE LOW AND DYNAMICS INDICATE THAT IT WILL STAY AS ONE LOW DURING THAT TIME FRAME. .AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY PUBLIC...NONE.
