What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory 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 small craft advisory went out at Jan 16, 12:00 AM AKST, 4 hours earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 16, 12:00 AM AKST, 4 hours before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
500 AM AST MON JAN 16 2006

.DISCUSSION...
THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN CONSISTS OF A DEEP TROUGH SOUTHWEST OF THE
WESTERN ALEUTIANS AND ANOTHER SOUTH OF CHIGNIK. A SHORT WAVE RIDGE
STRETCHES EAST TO WEST ACROSS SOUTHERN ALASKA. ALSO OF NOTE IS A WEAK
TROUGH OVER THE BERING SEA STRETCHING INTO EXTREME NORTHEAST SIBERIA.
THIS BERING SEA TROUGH WILL MOVE EAST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS
INTO WESTERN ALASKA. IT WILL THEN BEGIN TO DEEPEN STARTING MID WEEK
AND CONTINUE TO DEEPEN INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS PATTERN WILL FAVOR
CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION EVEN FOR INLAND AREAS AS SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW
ALOFT PUSHES SURFACE LOWS INTO THE KENAI PENINSULA AND PRINCE WILLIAM
SOUND AREA.

THIS WILL BE A FAIRLY COLD UPPER LOW WITH HEIGHTS DROPPING TO NEAR
500 DM OR LOWER. 850 MB TEMPS ARE FORECAST DOWN TO -28C NEAR MCGRATH
AND POSSIBLY -20C OR COLDER FOR ANCHORAGE BY FRIDAY...THIS WOULD BE
SOME OF THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON SO FAR. TEMPERATURES WILL BEGIN
TO DROP OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WEST OF THE ALASKA RANGE AND THEN
EXPECT A DOWNWARD TREND INTO THE WEEKEND FOR AREAS EAST OF THE ALASKA
RANGE. CURRENT FORECASTS ARE FAIRLY CONSERVATIVE AS CLOUD COVER AND
PERIODIC PRECIPITATION SHOULD KEEP RADIATIVE COOLING IN CHECK...BUT
SUBTLE CHANGES IN THE POSITION OF THAT LOW COULD ALLOW SURFACE
TEMPERATURES TO DROP WELL BELOW GUIDANCE.

.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...NONE.
MARINE...STORM WARNING 176.
         GALE WARNING 120 130 138 170 171 172 175 179 180.
