Area forecast discussion, May 5, 12:00 AM AKDT, 11 hours before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA 500 AM ADT FRI MAY 5 2006 .DISCUSSION... BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH CENTERED OVER THE BERING STRAIT THIS MORNING WITH A CUT-OFF LOW OVER THE EASTERN BERING AND BRISTOL BAY. A STRONG JET IS TAKING THE GREAT CIRCLE ROUTE FROM THE CENTRAL PACIFIC TO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST...REMAINING BETWEEN 40 AND 50 N. RIDGES ARE OVER THE ROCKIES AND WEST OF THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA. AT THE SURFACE A LOW IS OVER BRISTOL BAY AND AN ASSOCIATED WARM FRONT IS MOVING ACROSS THE KENAI PENINSULA. THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT IS MOVING ACROSS THE AKPEN. A SECOND LOW IS SOUTH OF ATKA WITH AN OCCLUDED FRONT STRETCHING NORTHEAST TOWARD THE BRISTOL BAY LOW. A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE IS DEVELOPING ALONG THE NORTHEAST GULF COAST. MODELS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT. IN THE EAST..THE WARM AND COLD FRONTS MERGE INTO AN OCCLUDED FRONT OVER THE EASTERN GULF THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH SLOWLY MOVES INLAND OVER SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING. THE ATKA LOW MERGES WITH THE BRISTOL BAY LOW TODAY. A NEW LOW FORMS NEAR KODIAK ISLAND SAT MORNING NEAR THE LEFT FRONT QUADRANT OF THE JETMAX MOVING ACROSS THE GULF. THIS LOW REMAINS IN THE NORTHERN GULF BEFORE WEAKENING INTO A TROUGH SUN MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS INTO THE GULF SUN NIGHT AND PERSISTS THROUGH MON. IN THE WEST THE BRISTOL BAY LOW MOVES INLAND TONIGHT AND PERSISTS OVER WESTERN ALASKA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A BROAD AREA OF CYCLONIC FLOW REMAINS OVER THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS THROUGH THE SAME PERIOD...ALTHOUGH A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE RACES ACROSS THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS SAT THROUGH SUN. ON SAT AFTERNOON A NORTH PACIFIC LOW BEGINS TO MOVE ALONG 50N JUST SOUTH OF THE CHAIN...REACHING THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS MON AND THE AKPEN TUE. AS THIS LOW MOVES EAST...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE WESTERN BERING. IN THE EAST...RAIN WILL OVERSPREAD MUCH OF THE KENAI AND THE NORTHERN GULF COAST AND SUSITNA VALLEY TODAY...ALTHOUGH SIGNIFICANT DOWNSLOPING WILL KEEP THINGS FAIRLY DRY ON LEEWARD SLOPES AND THE ANCHORAGE BOWL THROUGH TONIGHT. AFTER THE FRONTS MERGE AND MOVE EAST TONIGHT...DOWNSLOPING WILL DIMINISH AND SHOWERS SHOULD BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD LATER ON SAT...WHILE STEADY ONSHORE FLOW BRINGS STEADY RAIN TO COASTAL AREAS THROUGH SUN. PRECIP WILL TAPER OFF OVER THE AREA MON BENEATH BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE. THIS ENDS LATER MON AS THE NORTH PACIFIC LOW BRINGS ONSHORE FLOW BACK INTO THE NORTH GULF COAST THROUGH TUE. IN THE WEST...RAIN AND SNOW WILL AFFECT WESTERN ALASKA THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEKEND BENEATH THE BRISTOL BAY LOW. NORTH TO NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE BERING WILL BRING SHOWERS TO THE REST OF THE WEST INTO SAT. DRIER CONDITIONS WILL ACCOMPANY THE BERING RIDGE AS IT RACES ACROSS THE CHAIN LATE SAT THROUGH SUN.
