Area forecast discussion, Nov 25, 8:15 AM AKST, 1 hour 45 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
115 PM AST SUN NOV 25 2007
.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...IN THE UPPER ELEVLS THERE IS A HIGH
AMPLITUDE LONG-WAVE TROUGH CENETRED OVER THE BERING SEA AND NORTH
PACIFIC WITH A RIDGE CENETRED OVER THE WESTERN US/CANADA. A STRONG
SUBTROPICAL JET EXTENDS ALONG THE NORTH PACIFIC NEAR 30N TO 180 AND
THEN CURVES NORTHEASTWARD UP THE WEST SIDE OF THE RIDGE INTO THE
GULF OF ALASKA. SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS AN IMPRESSIVE PLUME OF
MOISTURE BEING TRANSPORTED FROM THE WESTERN TROPICAL PACIFIC TO THE
GULF OF ALASKA...FEEDING INTO A STRONG LOW MOVING INTO THE SOUTHERN
GULF. THIS IS ONE OF THREE VERY STRONG LOWS EMBEDDED WITHIN THE
LONG-WAVE TROUGH. WITH A FAIRLY WARM AIR MASS OVER THE REGION MUCH
OF PRECIPITATION IS IN THE FORM OF RAIN. THE BIG STORY WITH THIS LOW
IS THE WINDS WITH WIDESPREAD STORM FORCE WINDS BEING OBSERVED ACROSS
THE GULF WATERS. AS FRONT APPROACHES NORTHERN GULF THIS AFTERNOON
EXPECT WINDS TO REACH HURRICANE FORCE FROM THE NORTH GULF COAST TO
THE BARREN ISLANDS REGION...ESPECIALLY THROUGH CHANNELED AREAS. THE
AMATULI ISLAND C-MAN STATION HAS ALREADY OBSERVED A PEAK WIND OF 64
KT. HIGH WIND WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT FOR PORTAGE VALLEY AND TURNAGAIN
ARM. LIKE THE PAST COUPLE SYSTEMS EXPECT THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE
OBSERVED AT PORTAGE AS THE FRONT NEARS. TILTING OF ISOBARS TO A NW
TO SE ORIENTATION HAS REDUCE THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS TURNAGAIN
ARM SO THAT WESTERN TURNAGAIN ARM WINDS HAVE DIMINISHED SIGNIFICANTLY
THIS MORNING. THE OTHER TWO LOWS HAVE SURFACE PRESSURES DOWN IN THE
LOWER 970S...BUT ARE HAVING LITTLE IMPACT ON THE ANCHORAGE FORECAST
AREA. ONE LOW IS WEST OF THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS AND THE OTHER IS ABOUT
500 MILES SOUTH OF THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS. THE LATTER LOW IS THE ONE
TO WATCH BECAUSE IT HAS COLD AIR FEEDING IN THE BACK SIDE OF IT AS
WELL AS GOOD UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT.
.MODEL DISCUSSION...NONE OF THE MODELS INITIALIZED THE GULF LOW VERY
WELL. NAM MODEL WAS CLOSEST ON THE POSITION WITH THE OTHER MODELS
TOO FAR NORTH AND WEST...SO PREFER IT FOR THE FIRST 12 HOURS OR SO.
AFTER THIS GFS HAS BEEN CONSISTENT IN MOVING THE LOW OVER KODIAK
ISLAND AND THEN MAKING A SHARP TURN IN DIRECTION BY MOVING THE LOW
OFF TO THE EAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF ON MONDAY. THIS MAKES SENSE
AS RIDGE BUILDING AHEAD OF DEVELOPING LOW SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS
PUSHES EVERYTHING EASTWARD. UKMET MATCHES UP WITH GFS WHILE NAM/ECMWF
WEAKEN LOW OVER COOK INLET. SINCE ALMOST ALL GFS ENSEMBLE MEMBER SHOW
A SIMILAR TRACK AS OPERATIONAL GFS DECIDED TO GO WITH THAT SOLUTION.
ALSO WENT HEAVILY TOWARD NEW GFS SOLUTION WITH SYSTEMS OUT WEST.
MODELS ARE ALL IN THE SAME GENERAL REGION FOR TRACK AND DEPTH OF
LOWS SO FELT IT WAS PRUDENT TO GO WITH NEW SOLUTION THROUGH THURSDAY
NIGHT. THIS BLENDED FAIRLY WELL INTO THE EXISTING EXTENDED FORECAST
PERIOD.
.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHCENTRAL...LOTS OF WINDS AND RAIN ALONG THE GULF COASTAL REGION.
DO NOT EXPECT AND FLOODING PROBLEMS BECAUSE SMALL STREAMS HAVE HAD A
LONG ENOUGH BREAK IN RAIN TO DRAIN MUCH OF THEIR WATER. WILL HOWEVER
MONITOR RAINFALL RATES AND STREAM LEVELS CLOSELY. HIGH WIND WARNINGS
FOR TURNAGAIN ARM/PORTAGE VALLEY (ZONE 101 AND 125) CURRENTLY GO
THROUGH 10 PM...BUT IF LOW REALLY MAKES IT TO SOUTHERN COOK
INLET/BARREN ISLANDS LATE TONIGHT THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR THESE WINDS
TO LAST LONGER...ESPECIALLY OVER WESTERN TURNAGAIN ARM. THERE WILL
BE A BRIEF SHOT OF PRECIP LATE TONIGHT INTO MONDAY AS UPPER
SHORT-WAVE MOVES ACROSS SOUTHCENTRAL ALONG WITH REMNANTS OF THE
FRONT...BUT THIS WILL HAVE TO OVERCOME WHAT WILL STILL BE SOME
FAIRLY STRONG DOWNSLOPING WINDS. THERE WILL BE ANOTHER BRIEF SHOT
OF PRECIP FOR INLAND AREAS AS UPPER LOW OPENS INTO A TROUGH AND THEN
PUSHES NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHCENTRAL MONDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. OTHERWISE...ALL OF SOUTHCENTRAL WILL DRY OUT MONDAY NIGHT.
MORE COASTAL RAIN LIKELY TUESDAY WITH FRONT MOVING IN FROM ALEUTIANS
SYSTEM...WHILE INLAND AREAS REMAIN DRY.
SOUTHWEST ALASKA...COASTAL PORTIONS OF SOUTHWEST WILL SEE ONLY BRIEF
BREAKS BETWEEN SYSTEMS THE NEXT FEW DAYS. SO LOOK FOR MULTIPLE SHOTS
OF PRECIP AND WIND. INLAND OVER THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY WILL REMAIN
DRIER DUE TO DOWNSLOPING WINDS MUCH OF THE TIME.
BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS...MOST UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL REMAIN OVER
EASTERN HALF OF THE BERING SEA REGION THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS STORM
SYSTEMS TRACK UP INTO THE EASTERN BERING. WITH ONE LOW AFTER ANOTHER
EXPECT RAPIDLY CHANGING CONDITIONS.
.LONG TERM FORECAST...MODELS INDICATE MEAN TROUGH RETROGRADING
SLIGHTLY WESTWARD WHILE A RIDGE BUILDS FROM THE EAST PACIFIC
NORTHWARD OVER MAINLAND ALASKA. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY LEAD TO
DEVELOPMENT OF AN OMEGA BLOCK...MEANING COLDER AND DRIER CONDITIONS
OVER MUCH OF THE REGION.
.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...HIGH WIND WARNING 101 AND 125.
MARINE...HURRICANE FORCE WIND WARNING 120 130.
STORM WARNING 125 132 138 140 141.
GALE WARNING 129 150 155 160 165 170 172 175.
