AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
300 PM AKDT TUE OCT 21 2008

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS IN REASONABLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH 72 HOURS. GFS IS THE MOST
AGGRESSIVE IN MOVING THE GULF OF ALASKA LOWS INLAND. WE PREFER THE
NAM AND ECMWF SOLUTIONS...ESPECIALLY AT 60 HOURS WHEN GFS TRIES TO
MOVE THE GULF OF ALASKA LOW RAPIDLY INLAND NEAR YAKUTAT WHILE ECMWF
HOLDS THE LOW BACK CLOSER TO MIDDLETON ISLAND.
ALL MODELS FAILED TO INITIALIZE THE MOISTURE FIELD WELL...ESPECIALLY
IN THE LOWER LEVELS. GFS FAILS TO RECOGNIZE THE BROAD BAND OF
STAGNANT STRATUS/STRATOCUMULUS ACROSS INTERIOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN
ALASKA AND RELATED SHOWERS ALMOST ENTIRELY. NAM DOES BETTER BUT POPS
ARE TOO HIGH. BOTH THE GFS AND NAM MORNING MOS PACKAGES ARE SUSPECT.

.SURFACE FEATURES...
THREE STRONG LOWS EACH WITH GOOD UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT WILL BE
IMPACTING THE ANCHORAGE AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY WITHIN THE NEXT 60
HOURS.
LOW NO 1...A 976 MB LOW IN THE SOUTHERN GULF OF ALASKA WILL
STRENGTHEN TO 967 MB JUST SOUTHEAST OF MIDDLETON ISLAND TUE NIGHT
THEN WEAKEN AND MOVE INLAND NEAR YAKUTAT WED EVENING.
LOW NO 2...A 961 MB IN THE NORTHWEST PACIFIC WILL INTENSIFY TO 951 MB
JUST SOUTH OF ADAK TUE NIGHT THEN DISSIPATE IN THE SOUTHEASTERN GULF
OF ALASKA THU MORNING. THE ASSOCIATED OCCLUDED FRONT WILL GRAZE THE
WESTERN ALEUTIANS THIS EVENING THEN MOVE OVER THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN
ALEUTIANS BY MORNING.
LOW NO 3...A 984 TRIPLE POINT LOW WILL DEVELOP 180 NM SOUTHEAST OF
CHIGNIK WED EVENING AND INTENSIFY TO 971 MB NEAR MIDDLETON ISLAND THU
AFTERNOON. THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL SLIDE ACROSS SOUTHERN
KODIAK ISLAND THURSDAY NIGHT.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
