Area forecast discussion, Feb 10, 10:00 AM AKST, 13 hours before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA 300 PM AST SAT FEB 10 2007 .DISCUSSION... IN THE EAST...THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE THAT HAS BEEN OVER THE GULF OF ALASKA IS BEGINNING TO WEAKEN AS A UPPER LEVEL TROUGH IN THE INTERIOR OF THE STATE STRENGTHENS. THIS RIDGE WILL FINALLY DISSIPATE MONDAY NIGHT AS AN UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVES INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF OF ALASKA. FOG AND STRATUS REMAIN AN ISSUE OVER A LARGE PART OF THE AREA. THE COPPER RIVER BASIN AND EASTERN PART OF COOL INLET HAVE A LARGE AMOUNT OF FOG AND STRATUS. MOST OF THE SUSITNA VALLEY HAS CLEARED OUT POSSIBLY DUE TO THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH INCREASING THE VERTICAL MIXING OF THE AIR. GUSTY WINDS THROUGH PASSES HAVE CLEARED OUT THE VALDEZ SEWARD AND WHITTIER AREAS. IN THE WEST...AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH NEAR THE WESTERN ALEUTIAN ISLANDS WILL DEVELOP INTO A CUT OFF LOW NEAR THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS SUNDAY. THIS LOW WILL SLOWLY WORK ITS WAY INTO THE BERING SEA BY TUESDAY AND DISPLACE A WEAK RIDGE THAT IS IN THE NORTHERN BERING SEA. THE SURFACE LOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LOW IS SOUTH OF ATKA AND WILL BECOME A COMPLEX LOW THAT REMAINS OVER THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS UNTIL AROUND THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK NEXT WEEK. THE FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW IS BRING GUSTY WINDS UP TO 55 MPH TODAY. THESE WINDS WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN SUNDAY. PRECIPITATION WILL BE SNOW IN THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL ALEUTIAN ISLANDS WHILE THE TEMPERATURES ARE WARM ENOUGH FOR RAIN OVER THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS. THE GENERAL TREND WILL BE FOR THE ATMOSPHERE TO COOL OVER THIS AREA WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE UPPER LOW AND TURN ALL PRECIPITATION TO SNOW OVER THE ALEUTIANS BY SUNDAY NIGHT. IN THE MAINLAND PART OF SOUTHWEST ALASKA LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL BE AN ISSUE THE NEXT DAY OR TWO. THE JET STREAM WILL REMAIN A NON FACTOR OVER THE STATE THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK AS IT REMAINS WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA. MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN THE EASTERN SECTION OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH MONDAY. THE GFS BRINGS IN A STRONGER LOW TO THE GULF THAN DOES THE NAM AND THE GFS SOLUTION IS PREFERRED IN THE GULF OF ALASKA AREA PAST MONDAY.
