AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
540 PM AST WED NOV 7 2007
.MODEL DISCUSSION...THE GFS MODEL SEEMS TO BE THE MOST CONSISTENT
CHOICE. PREFER HOW THE GFS/UKMET HANDLES TRIPLE POINT DEVELOPMENT
OVER THE SOUTHERN GULF THU NIGHT AND MOVES TO THE NORTHERN GULF FRI
AFTN/NIGHT. GFS INITIALIZATION ON CURRENT CENTERS OVER BRISTOL BAY
AND NEXT STORM SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS IS VERY GOOD. GFS IS FAIRLY
CONSISTENT WITH STORM ENTERING THE SOUTHERN GULF SAT NIGHT...THOUGH
THIS RUN IS A LITTLE SLOWER AND SLIGHTLY DEEPER. MODELS STILL HAVING
PROBLEMS IN THE MID-LONG TERM WITH SOLUTIONS OVER THE BERING SEA.
.SYNOPSIS...
980S LOW OVER SW ALASKA THIS AFTERNOON MOVES OVER THE INTERIOR
TONIGHT AND WEAKENS. ASSOCIATED FRONTAL TROUGH EXTENDING OVER THE
DELTA...KUSKOKWIM VALLEY...SOUTHERN COOK INLET...TO OVER KODIAK
ISLAND MOVES THROUGH NORTH AND EAST TONIGHT. EXPECT FRONT WILL MOVE
