SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
400 PM AKDT MON JUL 4 2011

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...A BROAD THREE-CENTERED UPPER LEVEL LOW
IS OVER THE STATE AND ADJOINING AREAS TODAY. THE MAIN CENTER IS NEAR
THE BERING STRAIT WITH SECONDARY LOBES OVER THE GULF AND FAR
NORTHEAST ALASKA. THE SECONDARY CENTERS WILL WEAKEN AS THE MAIN LOW
DROPS SOUTHWARD OVER THE BERING SEA AND STRENGTHENS SOME TUESDAY.
UPPER LEVEL TEMPERATURES OVER THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE STATE REMAIN
COOLER THAN NORMAL AND ARE ASSISTING IN THE CONTINUED SHOWERY PATTERN
SEEN ACROSS THE REGION.
AT THE SURFACE THE STRONGEST LOW IS IN THE GULF OF ALASKA WITH THE
ONE IN THE BERING SEA A BIT WEAKER. IN REFLECTION OF THE UPPER LEVEL
BEHAVIOR, THE BERING SEA LOW WILL STRENGTHEN AS THE GULF LOW SLOWLY
WEAKENS THROUGH TUESDAY.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...MODEL PERFORMANCE IS ACCEPTABLE ON THE MAJOR
WEATHER FEATURES...THOUGH THERE IS ENOUGH DIVERGENCE IN THE BERING
SEA LOW TO MAKE SOME LOCAL DIFFERENCES IN THAT AREA. ECMWF SEEMS TO
BE HANDLING THE BERING SEA SYSTEM THE BEST WITH A LITTLE MORE
NORTHERLY TRACK. THIS IS A SLOW MOVING SYSTEM WHICH BODES WELL FOR
THE POSSIBILITY OF MODELS CONVERGING ON A COMMON SOLUTION.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA...COOL AIR ALOFT WILL KEEP SHOWERS AROUND
THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING. THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BE MORE UNSTABLE
TOMORROW THAN TODAY SO THERE IS A THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE
SUSITNA VALLEY THROUGH THE COPPER RIVER BASIN TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. THIS INCLUDES THE TALKEETNA MOUNTAINS AND HATCHER PASS AREA
AS WELL.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...A COLD FRONT THAT PASSED THROUGH THE KUSKOKWIM
DELTA YESTERDAY IS WASHING OUT ALONG THE ALEUTIAN MOUNTAINS TODAY.
THE RAIN ALONG THE FRONT WILL SLOWLY TAPER OFF THROUGH THE NIGHT AND
AREAS WEST OF THE FRONT WILL BE AT RISK FOR FOG AGAIN OVERNIGHT AND
INTO TOMORROW MORNING AS THE DRY AIR BEHIND THIS FRONT ENHANCES THE
RADIATIVE COOLING. CLOUD COVER OVER THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA WILL KEEP
THINGS FROM BEING QUITE AS COLD TONIGHT AS THEY WE THIS MORNING WHERE
TOKSOOK BAY AND MEKORYUK REACHED THE FREEZING EARLY THIS MORNING.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...THE BERING SEA LOW WILL REMAIN OFF THE
SOUTHWEST COAST LATER IN THE WEEK WHICH WILL KEEP THINGS CLOUDY COOL
AND MOIST FOR THAT AREA. THERE NAY BE A BIT OF A CLEARING TREND LATER
IN THE WEEK FOR SOUTH CENTRAL...BUT THE RESIDUAL MOISTURE AND COOL
AIR ALOFT WILL LIKELY KEEP SOME SHOWERS AROUND...ESPECIALLY OVER
MOUNTAINS.

.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
