SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
1235 PM AKDT MON APR 25 2011

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...A LOW AMPLITUDE WAVE PATTERN DOMINATES
THE UPPER LEVELS...SO NO MAJOR STORMS TO SPEAK OF IN THE SHORT-TERM.
THE MAIN FEATURE AFFECTING THE REGION IS A CLOSED LOW OVER THE
CENTRAL BERING SEA. IT IS WEAKENING AS IT TRACKS SOUTHEASTWARD
TOWARD THE PACIFIC. WEAK WAVES OUT AHEAD OF THIS LOW ARE ROTATING
NORTHWARD AND WESTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND PRODUCING
SHOWERS. THE FOCUS OF THESE SHOWERS IS AROUND TWO SURFACE LOWS...
ONE JUST SOUTH OF PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND AND ANOTHER OVER BRISTOL BAY.
ARCTIC AIR IS FEEDING IN BEHIND THE BRISTOL BAY LOW WITH
PRECIPITATION FALLING AS SNOW AS YOU HEAD SOUTH OF KING SALMON
ALONG THE ALASKA PENINSULA.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...THERE CONTINUE TO BE SOME DIFFERENCES IN TRACK
OF LOW ALONG THE ALEUTIANS ON WEDNESDAY. ECMWF HAS TRENDED NORTHWARD
WHILE GFS HAS TRENDED SOUTHWARD. GFS HAS GOOD SUPPORT FROM ENSEMBLE
MEMBERS WITH VERY LITTLE SPREAD AMONG SOLUTIONS...SO WILL SIDE WITH
THE GFS TRACK. OTHERWISE...THERE IS GOOD AGREEMENT IN SYNOPTIC
FEATURES THROUGH THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...

SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS LOOK RELATIVELY SIMILAR
WITH MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND A FEW SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH WEAK
UPPER LEVEL WAVES TRACKING NORTHWARD FROM THE GULF. MARGINALLY
COLDER AIR ALOFT WILL GRADUALLY FILTER IN FROM THE SOUTH CREATING
SLIGHTLY MORE UNSTABLE CONDITIONS. ON WEDNESDAY A VERY WEAK RIDGE
WILL BEGIN TO BUILD IN ALOFT WHICH WILL RESULT IN MORE SUNSHINE
AND WARMER TEMPERATURES. THIS IN TURN WILL RESULT DIURNALLY DRIVEN
SHOWERS...PRIMARILY ALONG THE MOUNTAINS.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...SURFACE LOW OVER BRISTOL BAY WILL MOVE TO OFF
THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA COAST TONIGHT WHERE IT WILL SIT AND DISSIPATE
ON TUESDAY. ARCTIC AIR WILL ALSO MAKE ITS WAY NORTHWARD AND CHANGE
PRECIPITATION TYPE TO SNOW ACROSS MOST OF THE BRISTOL BAY REGION
TONIGHT. AREAS TO THE NORTH WON'T SEE COLDER AIR UNTIL TUESDAY
NIGHT BY WHICH POINT SHOWER COVERAGE WILL BE GREATLY REDUCED.

BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS...AS ONE LOW SOUTH OF THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA
TRACKS TOWARD THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS A TRIPLE POINT LOW WILL DEVELOP
TO THE SOUTH ALONG A BEND IN THE UPPER JET. WITH THE UPPER SUPPORT
THIS LOW WILL STRENGTHEN AS IT MOVES TO THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS LATE
TUESDAY AND THEN STALL AND WEAKEN NEAR DUTCH HARBOR BY THURSDAY AS
UPPER JET PASSES BY TO THE SOUTH AND EAST. MUCH WARMER AIR WILL
ACCOMPANY THE LOW SO PRECIPITATION WILL FALL MAINLY AS RAIN.
HOWEVER...COLDER AIR WILL FEED INTO THE BACK SIDE OF THE SYSTEM
TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY CHANGING PRECIPITATION BACK TO SNOW
IN SOME AREAS.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...MEDIUM RANGE MODELS INDICATE A MORE AMPLIFIED
PATTERN THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD...BUT STILL PROGRESSIVE. THE
LOW ALONG THE ALEUTIANS MID WEEK WILL MOVE DOWN INTO THE NORTHEAST
PACIFIC AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEKEND WHILE ANOTHER SYSTEM MOVES IN
FROM THE WEST. THE SOUTHWEST ALASKA COAST MAY SEE SOME AFFECTS FROM
THIS ALEUTIAN SYSTEM...BUT AREAS FURTHER NORTH AND WEST WILL BE
PROTECTED BY A STRENGTHENING RIDGE OVER INTERIOR SOUTHWEST. THERE
MAY BE SOME DIURNAL CONVECTION ON THE EAST SIDE OF THIS RIDGE OVER
SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...BUT ALL IN ALL EXPECT MOSTLY DRY CONDITIONS
AND QUITE A BIT OF SUNSHINE.

.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...NONE.
MARINE...GALE WARNING...170 172 175.
FIRE WEATHER...NONE.
