Area forecast discussion, Jan 22, 12:00 AM AKST, 11 hours before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
500 AM AST MON JAN 22 2007

.DISCUSSION...
THE CURRENT PATTERN CONSISTS OF AN UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER WESTERN
ALASKA AND A FULL LATITUDE RIDGE AROUND 120W LONGITUDE. THE EAST
ASIA JET IS PUSHING ACROSS THE ENTIRE PACIFIC AT AROUND 30-40N
LATITUDE BEFORE MAKING A NORTHEASTWARD BEND AND BREAKING JUST OFF
THE WEST COAST OF CANADA. THIS IS A FAIRLY TYPICAL MODE DURING EL
NINO...THOUGH THE JET WOULD NORMALLY BE FURTHER SOUTH ACROSS THE
PACIFIC AND BREAK SOMEWHERE NEAR CALIFORNIA. THIS IS ALSO A VERY
STABLE PATTERN AND HAS SETTLED IN NICELY OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF
WEEKS AND IS LIKELY TO BE ONE OF THE DOMINANT PATTERNS FOR THE NEXT
COUPLE OF MONTHS.

WHILE THE JET ENERGY IS POUNDING THE WEST COAST OF CANADA AND
WASHINGTON STATE...THE LOW CENTERS ARE PUSHING INTO SOUTH CENTRAL
AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA...STEERED BY THE MEAN TROUGH POSITION OVER
WESTERN ALASKA AND THE NORTHEAST BERING SEA. COLD AIR IS BEING
PULLED SOUTH ACROSS THE BERING SEA ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE TROUGH.
ENOUGH CYCLONIC FLOW WILL BE OVER SOUTHERN ALASKA TO BRING SHOWERS
TO SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

A LOW CURRENTLY SPINNING UP IN THE NORTHWEST PACIFIC WILL BECOME A
MAJOR STORM (LESS THAN 960 MB SURFACE LOW) BY WEDNESDAY SOUTH OF THE
CENTRAL ALEUTIANS AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE COLD AIR DIVING SOUTH
FROM THE BERING SEA. MODELS ARE STRUGGLING WITH TIMING FOR THIS
STORM...BUT AGREE ON INTENSITY. A SWATH OF STORM FORCE WINDS WILL
MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS THE MARINE AREAS OF ALASKA WEDNESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY...BEFORE THE SYSTEM SETTLES INTO THE BERING SEA AS THE NEW
STEERING LOW. MORE SNOW (AND RAIN AT SOME COASTAL AREAS) EXPECTED
WITH THIS SYSTEM.

UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME SIGNIFICANTLY SOUTHERLY DURING THE
WEEKEND USHERING IN MILDER TEMPERATURES OVER THE MAINLAND AS THE
MEAN TROUGH POSITION RETROGRADES AND THE WEST COAST RIDGE
STRENGTHENS. LOOKING INTO NEXT WEEK THE GENERAL PATTERN OF TROUGH
TO THE WEST AND RIDGE TO THE EAST WILL LIKELY CONTINUE.

.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...NONE.
MARINE...HEAVY FREEZING SPRAY WARNING 160 179.
FIRE WEATHER...NONE.
