AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
500 AM ADT WED SEP 6 2006
.DISCUSSION...
AMPLIFIED PATTERN OVER THE AREA WITH A LOW OVER THE NORTHERN GULF...
A RIDGE SOUTH OF THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS...A LOW JUST WEST OF THE
ALEUTIANS...AND A VERY STRONG BLOCKING RIDGE OVER THE WESTERN CONUS
EXTENDING NORTH THROUGH BRITISH COLUMBIA AND THE NORTHWEST
TERRITORIES. SOUTHERN ALASKA WILL CONTINUE IN CYCLONIC FLOW...AND
THUS MORE PERIODS OF CLOUDS AND SHOWERS...FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF
DAYS AS THE GULF LOW REMAINS LOCKED IN PLACE BY THE NORTHWEST
BLOCKING RIDGE.
THE FEATURE THAT IS RAPIDLY BECOMING THE DOMINANT WEATHER SYSTEM IN
THE AREA IS THE LOW WEST OF THE ALEUTIANS...WHICH CONTAINS THE
REMAINS OF FORMER SUPER TYPHOON IOKE. THIS LOW WILL BOMB OUT TODAY
OVER THE BERING SEA. CENTRAL SURFACE PRESSURE WILL BOTTOM OUT AT
AROUND 963 MB EARLY THURSDAY. BEING A FORMER TYPHOON...THIS LOW
CONTAINS COPIOUS MOISTURE AND WILL BRING DECENT AMOUNTS OF RAIN OVER
THE NEXT FEW DAYS TO THE ALEUTIANS AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA ALONG WITH
STRONG WINDS. AS THIS LOW APPROACHES THE WEST COAST OF ALASKA IT
WILL FINALLY KICK OUT THE GULF LOW THURSDAY NIGHT...AND THEN CROSS
THE AKPEN AND DROP INTO THE GULF SATURDAY TO TAKE ITS PLACE. THE
MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE ABOVE SCENARIO THROUGH
ABOUT SUNDAY.
BY EARLY NEXT WEEK THE GLOBAL MODELS BEGIN TO SING THEIR OWN SONGS
AND CONFIDENCE IN THE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE BECOMES VERY LOW. THE
NORTHERN GULF HAS BEEN A SWEET SPOT FOR LOWS THIS SUMMER AS THE
WESTERN NORTH AMERICA BLOCKING RIDGE HAS NOT ALLOWED THEM TO PASS
EASTWARD. SO IT SEEMS LIKELY THE LOW WILL REMAIN IN THE GULF INTO
AT LEAST THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK AND THE FORECASTS FOR THAT PERIOD
WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW A CHANCE OF SHOWERS.
