AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
335 PM AKST SUN FEB 15 2009
.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THE ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES ACROSS THE STATE FUELED BY A BROAD UPPER
TROUGH WITH AXIS FROM THE SEWARD PENINSULA SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE THE
ALASKA PENINSULA AND INTO THE NORTH PACIFIC. SEVERAL UPPER LEVEL
TROUGHS ARE EMBEDDED WITHIN THE LONG WAVE PATTERN WITH THE MOST
SIGNIFICANT LOCATED OVER THE NORTHERN GULF AND ANOTHER OVER THE
ALASKA PENINSULA. A TRANSIENT UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS BUILDING OVER THE
WESTERN AND CENTRAL BERING SEA AHEAD OF WHAT WILL BECOME THE NEW
ANCHOR LOW NEAR KAMCHATKA PENINSULA OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
.AT THE SURFACE...
A 997 MB SURFACE LOW IS WEAKENING IN THE NORTHWEST GULF. THIS COUPLED
WITH A POTENT UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE AND WEAKENING FRONTAL BOUNDARY
IS RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD LIGHT SNOW ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL. THE
DEFORMATION ZONE AND SNOW EXTENDS NORTHWARD ACROSS THE ALASKA RANGE
AND INTO THE UPPER KUSKOKWIM VALLEY. ANOTHER POTENT SYSTEM SOUTH OF
THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS HAS REACHED ITS MAXIMUM STRENGTH AND IS
WEAKENING AS IT HEADS INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF. OUT WEST...AN
IMPRESSIVE MOISTURE FETCH FROM THE MID LATITUDES IS FEEDING A
DEVELOPING SYSTEM SOUTH OF THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS. THIS LOW AND ITS
ASSOCIATED FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BRING THE STATE ITS NEXT ROUND OF
WEATHER MID WEEK.
.MODEL DISCUSSION...
AGAIN...MODELS CONTINUE TO HANDLE ALL MAJOR FEATURES WELL AND ARE IN
GOOD AGREEMENT FOR THE SHORT TERM FORECAST. ONE FEATURE THAT THE
MODELS DID NOT INITIALIZE WELL ON IS THE SHORT WAVE IN THE NORTHERN
GULF. ALL MODELS DEPICTED THIS FEATURE AS AN OPEN TROUGH ALTHOUGH
SATELLITE IMAGERY IS CLEARLY SHOWING A CLOSED CIRCULATION AT MID TO
UPPER LEVELS. THIS IS THE MAIN REASON WHY PRECIPITATION IS HEAVIER
AND MORE WIDESPREAD THIS MORNING ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL. AFTER THIS
INITIALIZATION HICCUP...NO REASON TO THINK MODELS ARE NOT HANDLING
THE EVOLUTION WELL IN THE SHORT TERM SO WILL BE MAKING ONLY MINOR
CHANGES TO THE FORECAST.
.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHCENTRAL...
THE BROAD TROUGH OVER SOUTHCENTRAL AND WEAKENING LOW IN THE NORTHERN
GULF WILL RESULT IN PERIODS OF LIGHT SNOW INLAND AND MODERATE RAIN
AND SNOW ALONG THE COAST THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING WHEN THE TROUGH
FINALLY SWINGS THROUGH THE AREA. THE DRYING ON THE BACK SIDE OF THIS
TROUGH WILL HAPPEN QUICKLY AND BE SHORTLIVED AS THE NEXT SYSTEM
MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. DURING THIS TIME...THE UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE AND RECENT SNOWFALL WILL LIKELY LEAD TO AREAS OF FOG ALONG COOK
INLET FROM KACHEMAK BAY NORTHWARD INTO THE LOWER SUSITNA VALLEY.
CLOUDS WILL QUICKLY INCREASE AGAIN WEDNESDAY WITH SNOW DEVELOPING
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AS A RESULT OF A FAVORABLE SOUTHERLY FLOW AT ALL
LEVELS. THIS FORECAST PACKAGE WILL BE INCREASING THE CHANCE OF
PRECIPITATION AREA WIDE AS CONFIDENCE BUILDS WITH EACH MODEL RUN. ONE
QUESTION THAT STILL REMAINS IS THE ONSET OF THE SNOW AS MODELS
USUALLY ARE TOO SLOW WITH THE ISENTROPIC LIFT AND THE SOUTHERLY FLOW.
THIS FORECAST WILL TREND FASTER THAN THE MODELS ARE CALLING FOR SNOW
TO BEGIN BUT WE MAY STILL HAVE TO BUMP THAT UP IN SUBSEQUENT FORECAST
PACKAGES.
SOUTHWEST...COLD AIR IS ADVECTING SOUTH INTO THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY. A
WIND CHILL ADVISORY WILL BE ISSUED FOR THE DELTA WHILE WINDS IN THE
UPPER KUSKO VALLEY WILL NOT BE NEARLY AS STRONG. TEMPERATURES WILL
CONTINUE TO DROP OVERNIGHT INTO THE NEGATIVE TEENS TO NEAR NEGATIVE
30 INLAND BY TUESDAY NIGHT. OVERRUNNING MOISTURE WILL INITIATE
PRECIPITATION WELL AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY TUESDAY
NIGHT ALONG THE COAST AND SPREAD INLAND DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY. THE
STRONG SOUTHERLY FETCH WILL USHER RELATIVELY WARM AIR INLAND WITH
THIS SYSTEM...CHANGING SNOW TO RAIN IN BRISTOL BAY WHILE THE
KUSKOKWIM VALLEY WILL REMAIN ALL SNOW. THERE COULD BE A BRIEF PERIOD
OF BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ALONG THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA BEFORE THE WARM AIR
ARRIVES...WILL HAVE TO MONITOR AND CONSIDER A BLIZZARD WATCH FOR THAT
ZONE.
BEHIND THE SYSTEM...COLD AIR QUICKLY SPREADS ACROSS THE REGION
CHANGING ALL PRECIP BACK TO SNOW AS THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS MOVES TO
THE EAST. SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE WITH ONLY A PARTIAL CLEARING IS
EXPECTED UNTIL THE WEEKEND.
.ALEUTIANS/BERING SEA FORECAST...
THE FOCUS OUT WEST WILL BE A RAPIDLY DEVELOPING LOW SOUTH OF THE
WESTERN ALEUTIANS AND ITS ASSOCIATED FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THIS IS THE
SAME SYSTEM THAT WILL BRING ALL OF THE PRECIP TO SOUTHWEST AND
SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA LATER IN THE WEEK. THE LOW WILL QUICKLY DEEPEN
FROM 980 MB TO NEAR 960 MB IN 12 HOURS. WINDS ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE
FRONT WILL STRENGTHEN TO HURRICANE FORCE OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL
BERING SEA BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON. GALE FORCE WINDS WILL ACCOMPANY THE
FRONT AS IT PROGRESSES ACROSS THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS BRINGING THE
POTENTIAL FOR BLIZZARD CONDITIONS AHEAD OF THE WARM AIR TO THE
PRIBILOFS AND THE WESTERN CAPES AND KUSKO DELTA. OTHERWISE...STRONG
SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH MID WEEK AS THE LOW MOVES
TOWARD KAMCHATKA AND SLOWLY WEAKENS.
