AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA 400 PM AKDT FRI SEP 25 2009 .MODEL DISCUSSION...MODELS ARE CONSISTENT AND ARE HOLDING TOGETHER WELL FOR THE FIRST THREE DAYS. GENERALLY WENT WITH A GFS SOLUTION IN THE WEST AND NAM IN THE EAST. .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...THE LARGE LOW ALONG THE NORTH GULF COAST IS THE EXTRA-TROPICAL REMNANTS OF TYPHOON CHOI WAN. THIS SYSTEM IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING VERTICALLY STACKED WITH THE SURFACE LOW JUST SOUTH OF PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND AND THE UPPER LEVEL LOW NEAR NUNIVAK ISLAND. THIS UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL HELP ESCORT THE LOW UP INTO THE COPPER RIVER BASIN BY SATURDAY MORNING. ANOTHER SURFACE LOW IN THE BERING SEA SOUTH OF THE PRIBILOFS IS TAPPING INTO THE COLD AIR ALOFT STREAMING DOWN THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER LOW NEAR NUNIVAK ISLAND. THIS LOW WILL HEAD NEARLY DUE EAST AD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN GULF THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A RIDGE BOTH AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT IS ENTERING THE WESTERN BERING SEA AND WILL MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL BERING SEA BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THIS WILL BRING WARMER TEMPERATURES TO THESE AREAS WHILE MOST OF THE STATE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE DROPPING TEMPERATURES AS THE COLD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES OVER THE MAINLAND PART OF ALASKA TOMORROW. .SHORT TERM FORECAST...THERE IS A LOW OF PRECIPITATION IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH RAIN AT THE LOWER LEVELS AND SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS. AS TEMPERATURES DROP OVERNIGHT AND COLDER AIR ALSO ADVECTS INTO THE AREA THE FREEZING LEVEL WILL DROP OVER SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA. MOST AREAS NEAR SEA LEVEL WILL NOT SEE ANY SNOW ACCUMULATIONS AS THE SNOWFALL WILL BE MINIMAL OVER WARM GROUND. HOWEVER THE MOUNTAINS WILL SEE INCREASED SNOWFALL AMOUNTS TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY. .LONG TERM FORECAST...SHOWERS WILL PERSIST THROUGH SUNDAY IN SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA WHILE SOUTHWEST ALASKA WILL START TO FEEL THE EFFECTS OF THE RIDGE MOVING OVER IT BY SUNDAY. MONDAY THIS RIDGE WILL MOVE TO SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA. A STRONG FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS SATURDAY NIGHT AND BE FOLLOWED BY THE PARENT LOW SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. THIS LOW WILL BE THE MAIN WEATHER FEATURE FOR MUCH OF THE THE FORECAST AREA FOR THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK. .AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY PUBLIC...NONE. MARINE...GALE 120 129 130 132 138 140 150 155 165 170 171 172 175 176. FIRE WEATHER...NONE. SEP 09
