SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
400 AM AKST SAT NOV 26 2011

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THE LARGE COMPLEX UPPER LOW STILL REMAINS DRAPED OVER MUCH OF
MAINLAND ALASKA THIS MORNING. THERE ARE TWO MAIN CENTERS LEFT...ONE
OVER THE AKPEN/KODIAK ISLAND AND ANOTHER OVER THE NORTHEASTERN GULF
STRETCHING INTO THE COPPER RIVER BASIN. EXTENDING FROM THIS UPPER LOW
A TROUGH AXIS SITS FROM THE GULF WELL INTO THE PACIFIC OCEAN TO THE
SOUTH. FURTHER WEST...A SEASONABLE UPPER LOW IS CENTERED OVER THE
KAMCHATKA PENINSULA. AN ACTIVE JET FEEDS AROUND THE BASE OF THIS LOW
JUST SOUTH OF THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS. FROM THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS UP
THROUGH THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS AND THEN OVER THE CHUKCHI PENINSULA A
RIDGE AXIS LIES BETWEEN THE TWO DOMINANT UPPER LOWS. AT THE
SURFACE...THERE ARE TWO MAIN AREAS OF SURFACE LOW PRESSURE...ONE IN
THE NORTHEASTERN GULF AND ANOTHER ENCROACHING ON THE SOUTHERN
PANHANDLE. GENERALLY LIGHT FLOW PREVAILS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE FOR MOST
OF THE MAINLAND. A LARGE SURFACE LOW SITS JUST EAST OF THE KAMCHATKA
PENINSULA WITH AN OCCLUDED FRONT STRETCHING EASTWARD INTO THE BERING
TURNING SOUTHWARD OVER THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
GIVEN THE COMPLEX NATURE OF THE PATTERN GUIDANCE HANDLES THE SYNOPTIC
PATTERN SIMILARLY THROUGH MID-DAY MONDAY. THE KAMCHATKA UPPER LOW
WILL DRIFT EAST INTO THE BERING COMBINING WITH THE MAINLAND UPPER LOW
TO FORM A DOUBLE BARRELED BROAD TROUGH. THE JET STREAM WILL LIE TO
THE SOUTH OF THE TROUGH WITH A MULTITUDE OF LOW AMPLITUDE WAVES FROM
THE AKPEN BACK THROUGH EAST ASIA. HOW THESE WAVES PROPAGATE AND
AMPLIFY WILL BE THE FOCUS OF THE FORECAST FOR THE NEXT WEEK. THE
SURFACE FIELDS ARE ALSO HANDLED VERY SIMILARLY THROUGH THE WEEKEND
BUT DIFFERENCES ARISE EARLY NEXT WEEK. AS THE CURRENT BERING SEA
OCCLUDED FRONT PUSHES EASTWARD OVER THE ALEUTIANS A TRIPLE POINT LOW
WILL FORM AS THE FRONT NEARS THE AKPEN EARLY SUNDAY. GLOBAL MODELS
SHOW A BROAD SURFACE LOW...SOME MULTI-CENTERED...FROM BRISTOL BAY TO
THE EASTERN GULF. THE MESOSCALE MODELS...NAM/SREF...SHOW A
CONSOLIDATED SURFACE LOW THAT STAYS SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS...MOVING
INTO THE GULF. THE GLOBAL MODELS EVENTUALLY REACH THAT SOLUTION ONLY
AFTER REFORMING THE LOW CENTER AS THE SYSTEM CROSSES THE AKPEN. THE
CANADIAN GEM IS THE OUTLIER OF THE PACKAGE WITH A MUCH DEEPER LOW AND
SUBSEQUENT FURTHER NORTHWEST TRACK ONTO THE MAINLAND. GFS IS FAVORED
FOR THE FORECAST PACKAGE.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...THE PERSISTENT LIGHT SNOW OF THE LAST COUPLE
DAYS WILL TAPER OFF THIS MORNING. THE DECAYING LOW IN THE GULF WILL
PROVIDE FOCUS FOR ACTIVE WEATHER INTO SUNDAY MORNING. A NEW TRIPLE
POINT LOW WILL PUSH INTO THE GULF ON SUNDAY WITH SNOW FIRST FOR
KODIAK ISLAND THEN SPREADING NORTHEASTWARD...MAINLY FOR COASTAL
LOCATIONS IN THE NORTHERN GULF. GALE FORCE WINDS IN THE GULF ARE ALSO
A STRONG POSSIBILITY.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...QUIET WEATHER AND CLEAR CONDITIONS HAVE ALLOWED
FOR TEMPERATURES TO PLUMMET OVER THE SOUTHWEST INTERIOR. THE QUIET
CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY TODAY BEFORE AN APPROACHING
FRONT BRINGS SNOW TO THE AKPEN ON SUNDAY SPREADING NORTHWARD INTO THE
KUSKOKWIM VALLEY.

BERING SEA AND ALEUTIANS...OCCLUDED FRONT WILL RACE ACROSS THE CHAIN
TODAY BRINGING PERIODS OF SNOW BEHIND THE FRONT. SNOW SHOWERS WILL
STAY IN THE FORECAST THROUGH MONDAY.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...
THE COLD PATTERN OF THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS LOOKS TO BE CHANGING THIS
WEEK. THE TWO CURRENT UPPER LOW CENTERS WILL CONSOLIDATE AND OPEN THE
DOOR FOR A FAST ZONAL FLOW WITH MANY AMPLIFYING SHORTWAVE TROUGHS.
STORM TRACKS WILL CHANGE TO A MORE EAST NORTHEASTERLY TRACK OVER THE
ALEUTIANS AND ONTO THE MAINLAND USHERING IN A VERY ACTIVE PATTERN FOR
SOUTHERN ALASKA.
