SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
500 AM AKST MON NOV 7 2011

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER MAINLAND AK THIS MORNING WITH ANOTHER
OVER KAMCHATKA AND THE EXTREME WESTERN BERING. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE AXIS EXTENDS FROM THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS THROUGH THE BERING
STRAIT...WHILE A WEAKER RIDGE IS OVER SE AK. AT THE SURFACE...A
RAPIDLY DEEPENING LOW IS JUST WEST OF ATTU AND A BROAD AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE IS OVER THE GULF OF AK.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

MODELS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR THE FIRST THREE DAYS. THE MAJOR
WEATHER PROBLEM IS THE LOW WEST OF ATTU THAT WILL RAPIDLY DEEPEN AND
MOVE INTO EXTREME EASTERN RUSSIA TUE NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN
BUILD INTO THE BERING THROUGH THU WHEN A NORTH PACIFIC LOW SKIRTS
JUST SOUTH OF THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS. A FRONT FROM A KAMCHATKA LOW
WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE WESTERN BERING THU NIGHT INTO FRI. IN THE
EAST...THE BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE GULF WILL SET UP A
TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND AND ASSOCIATED
AREAS THROUGH TUE NIGHT. A WEAK LOW DEVELOPS NEAR KODIAK ISLAND ON
WED AND MOVES TO PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND BY THU. HIGH PRESSURE THEN
