What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this storm 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 storm warning went out at Dec 12, 12:30 AM AKST, 10 hours 30 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 12, 12:30 AM AKST, 10 hours 30 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA 530 AM AST MON DEC 12 2005 .DISCUSSION... UKMET INITIALIZES BEST THIS MORNING BUT SOLUTION QUICKLY DIVERGES FROM ETA AND GFS BY 24 HOURS. ETA AND GFS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH 48 HOURS BEFORE ETA COMPLICATES THE FORECAST BY NOT DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW AS DEEP AS THE GFS. CONFIDENCE IN ETA PAST 48 HOURS IS LOW GIVEN THAT THE WAVES ENTERING ARE FORECAST AREA ARE DEVELOPING OUTSIDE THE ETA DOMAIN. GFS SOLUTION IS THE BEST AND FORECAST WAS ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY TO REFLECT THAT. EXTENDED FORECAST WAS ONLY TWEAKED GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY AND POOR RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY PAST 60 HOURS. 500MB... MAIN UPPER FEATURE IS 501 DAM LOW IN THE BERING SEA RETROGRADING ALONG 55N FROM 175W ACROSS THE INTERNATIONAL DATELINE. UNRELENTING SUPPLY OF SHORTWAVES PIVOTING AROUND BASE OF UPPER TROUGH COINCIDING WITH 185 KT JET FLOWING W-E ALONG THE 40TH PARALLEL. UPPER RIDGE STILL BUILDING WITH AXIS ALONG THE BC COAST AND AK PANHANDLE. THIS RIDGE WILL EVENTUALLY SHIFT EAST BY FRIDAY AS NORTH PACIFIC JET BECOMES MORE AMPLIFIED DEEPENING THE TROUGH IN THE VICINITY OF 160W. SURFACE... THE SURFACE REFLECTIONS OF THE UPPER SHORTWAVES ARE STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS DEVELOPING OFF THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA AND REACHING MATURITY NEAR 170W. IT IS HERE WHERE THEY LOSE UPPER SUPPORT AND WEAKEN AS THEY TURN NORTH TOWARD THE AKPEN. THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK BEFORE THE UPPER TROUGH BEGINS TO DEEPEN.
