SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
430 PM AKST WED NOV 9 2011

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
DEEP POLAR VORTEX OVER CHUKCHI SEA WITH A PROGRESSIVE PATTERN IN
PLACE ACROSS ALASKA. A STRONG TROUGH ROTATING THROUGH THE NORTHERN
BERING PRODUCED A VERY STRONG STORM THAT MOVED THROUGH THE BERING
YESTERDAY AND INTO THE CHUKCHI THIS AFTERNOON. THIS STORM PRODUCED
COASTAL FLOODING AND DAMAGING WINDS TO THE WEST COAST OF ALASKA. THE
STRONG WESTERLY FLOW BEHIND THE STORM WILL CONTINUE TO BRING THE
THREAT OF HIGH SEAS AND SURGE TO THE WEST COAST THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS. A SECONDARY WAVE IS MOVING THROUGH THE WESTERN BERING THIS
AFTERNOON AS WELL ENHANCING THE WESTERLY FLOW. THIS WAVE IS
ACCOMPANIED BY A RELATIVELY STRONG JET STREAM OF 170KT AND WILL PUSH
TO THE COAST TONIGHT. A WEAKER WAVE IS RIDING ALONG THE JET AND WILL
MOVE INTO THE GULF OF ALASKA TONIGHT.

THE RIDGE OVER SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA HAS BROKEN DOWN AND CLOUDS HAVE
FILTERED INTO THE AREA. AS THE NEXT WAVE MOVES INLAND TONIGHT ALONG
THE WEST COAST...A SURFACE LOW WILL DEVELOP OVER THE GULF OF ALASKA
IN RESPONSE TO THE JET CORE AND THE WEAK WAVE MOVING INTO THE REGION.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS HAVE BEEN INITIALIZED WELL THIS MORNING WITH THE VERY LARGE
STORM IN THE NORTHERN BERING SEA. THE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG
THE NORTHERN GULF COAST HAS ALSO BEEN ANALYZED WELL. THE
PRECIPITATION AND WIND PATTERNS WERE ALSO ANALYZED WELL. THE MODEL
SPREAD IS QUITE LOW THROUGH FRIDAY. THIS IS WHEN THE POLAR VORTEX
BEGINS TO SHIFT EAST. HOWEVER...ALL THE MODELS HAVE AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE CONSISTENTLY OVER THE MAINLAND STRETCHING FROM THE EASTERN
BERING INTO THE YUKON THROUGH SUNDAY. A RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE BERING
MONDAY WITH A LINGERING LOW IN THE GULF AS THE POLAR VORTEX MOVES
INTO THE YUKON.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHCENTRAL...
A SNOW EVENT IS EXPECTED TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW AS A LOW DEVELOPS IN
THE GULF LATER TONIGHT. IN ADDITION...A SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL RIP
THROUGH THE AREA PROVIDING EXTRA LIFT THURSDAY MORNING. THE
ORIENTATION OF THE JET STREAM ACROSS THE ALEUTIANS AND THE SPIN UP OF
THE LOW WILL BRING SOME MOIST AIR INTO THE REGION. SATELLITE IMAGERY
INDICATES AN ANOMALY OF MOISTURE WITH THIS DEVELOPING SYSTEM. IF WE
TAP INTO THE MOISTURE HEAVILY...SNOW AMOUNTS WILL BE GREATER THAN
ADVERTISED. THE ONLY UNCERTAINTY IS THE TRACK OF THE LOW DEVELOPING
IN THE GULF. IF IT MOVES A BIT FARTHER EAST TOWARD CORDOVA...THE SNOW
IN ANCHORAGE WILL BE ABOUT HALF AS ADVERTISED. AS IT STANDS NOW...THE
LOW IS EXPECTED TO TRACK INTO THE WESTERN PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND AREA.
SNOWFALL AMOUNTS OF 3 TO 8 INCHES ARE ANTICIPATED ACROSS THE
ANCHORAGE BOWL WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS OVER THE MID AND UPPER
HILLSIDE. THE TROUGH THAT WILL BRING THE MORE INTENSE SNOWFALL
TOMORROW MORNING WILL ACT AS A SWEEPER AS WELL TOMORROW AFTERNOON. AS
THE AXIS OF THIS TROUGH MOVES THROUGH...STABLE AND DRIER AIR WILL
DOMINATE. WITH THE LOW EAST OF CORDOVA IN THE AFTERNOON AND HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE MAINLAND...NORTH AND WEST GAP FLOWS WILL
BE STRONG. THE FLOW WILL WEAKEN THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY AS THE HIGH IS
SHOVED EAST WITH ANOTHER LOW MOVING INTO BRISTOL BAY. ANOTHER LOW
WILL DEVELOP IN THE GULF FRIDAY EVENING AS THE BRISTOL LOW MOVES INTO
THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA. THIS COULD BE ANOTHER SNOW PRODUCER...BUT
UNCERTAINTY IS HIGHER WITH THIS STORM FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY.
WILL EXPECT SOME TURNAGAIN ARM WIND WITH THIS STORM FRIDAY NIGHT
THOUGH. THE LOWS WILL LIFT INTO THE MAINLAND SATURDAY WITH AN AREA OF
LOW PRESSURE REMAINING INLAND THROUGH SUNDAY.

SOUTHWEST AND BERING SEA...
THE STRONG STORM IS ENDING THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...THE WESTERLY FLOW
REMAINS STRONG AND STORM SURGE WILL CONTINUE TO BE A PROBLEM THIS
EVENING. ANOTHER LOW WITH STRONG WESTERLY FLOW IS FOLLOWING THROUGH
THE BERING THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WILL CONTINUE THE THREAT OF COASTAL
STORM SURGE THROUGH THE NIGHT. THIS WAVE WILL ALSO BRING SOME HEAVIER
PRECIPITATION TO SOUTHWEST ALASKA TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
TRAVERSE THE BERING TONIGHT AND INTO THE SOUTHWEST TOMORROW AHEAD OF
A DEVELOPING STORM OVER THE CENTRAL/WESTERN ALEUTIANS. THE LOW WILL
BE AROUND 980MB THURSDAY EVENING NEAR ADAK. HEAVY PRECIPITATION CAN
BE EXPECTED WITH THIS STORM. THERE IS A GOOD AMOUNT OF WARM ADVECTION
WITH THIS STORM AND PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE ALL RAIN ALONG THE
ALEUTIAN CHAIN THURSDAY NIGHT. THE WINDS WITH THIS STORM WILL BE
AROUND GALE FORCE AND DUE TO THE TRACK...STORM SURGE IS NOT EXPECTED
TO BE A PROBLEM. THE LOW WILL MOVE INTO BRISTOL BAY FRIDAY AT ROUGHLY
960MB. THERE MIGHT BE ENOUGH COLD AIR INLAND FOR SNOW AND BLOWING
SNOW FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS SOUTHWEST ALASKA. THE LOW WEAKENS TO 970MB
SATURDAY WITH LIGHTER WINDS AND PRECIPITATION AROUND SOUTHWEST ALASKA
AND THE EASTERN BERING SEA. THE REMAINS INLAND INTO SUNDAY BEFORE
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE BERING MONDAY.

EXTENDED...
LOW PRESSURE OVER THE INLAND AREAS MONDAY WITH A STRONG LOW
DEVELOPING WEST OF THE ALEUTIANS. THE WESTERN ALEUTIAN LOW WILL CREEP
EAST OVER TIME IN THE EXTENDED...BUT HIGH PRESSURE WILL DOMINATE THE
REMAINDER OF THE AREA INTO WEDNESDAY. NORTH AND WEST GAP FLOWS WILL
BE A PROBLEM IN THE EXTENDED. THE ALEUTIAN LOW SPREADS A FRONT INTO
THE WESTERN BERING SEA WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
