The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 5, 2:00 PM AKST, 2 hours before
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
200 PM AKST SAT FEB 5 2011
.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A BROAD UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS BRINGING ANOTHER DAY OF CLEAR SKIES TO
MUCH OF SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN ALASKA. THE AXIS OF THE RIDGE
STRETCHES FROM THE KENAI PENINSULA TO THE YUKON DELTA AND THEN
WESTWARD INTO THE CENTRAL BERING SEA. THE 160 KT UPPER LEVEL JET
STREAM RESIDES WELL SOUTH OF THE AOR...FLOWING NORTHWARD OUT OF THE
SUBTROPICAL PACIFIC AND MOVING INLAND OVER THE ALASKA PANHANDLE. AN
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH COVERS THE SOUTHERN AND WESTERN BERING.
AT THE SURFACE...A DECAYING 986 MB LOW IS CENTERED 300 MILES SOUTH OF
NIKOLSKI AND TRACKING NORTH TOWARDS THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS. A
SHORTWAVE TROUGH EXTENDS NORTHEASTWARD FROM THIS LOW TO 250 MILES
SOUTH OF KODIAK...WHERE A SMALL LOW LEVEL LOW PRESSURE CENTER IS
DEVELOPING AS SEEN IN THE IR AND WATER VAPOR SATELLITE IMAGERY.
.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS OVERALL ARE IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THE SHORT TERM ON
THE DEPOSITION OF THE GULF WEATHER FRONT AND THE TRACK OF THE CENTRAL
ALEUTIAN LOW. THE EC AND GFS INITIALIZED THE BEST WITH THE STRUCTURE
AND POSITION OF THE WEATHER FRONT AND EMBEDDED LOW IN THE SOUTHERN
GULF WHILE THE NAM IS THE WEAKER AND SLOWER SOLUTION. SOME
DISCREPANCIES DEVELOP WITH THE SOUTHERN BERING LOW ON MONDAY AS IT
FILLS AND MORPHS INTO A SERIES OF WEAK VORTICIES. OUT TOWARDS THE
EXTENDED PERIOD THE MODELS CONTINUE TO REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
THE NEXT SYSTEM THAT MOVES UP INTO THE GULF FROM THE NORTHERN PACIFIC
AROUND MID WEEK.
.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
.SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...THE REST OF THE DAY LOOKS TO REMAIN MOSTLY
CLEAR OVER THE REGION...WITH THE ONE EXCEPTION BEING THE COPPER RIVER
DELTA WHERE A STUBBORN FOG/LOW STRATUS DECK COVERS THE SOUTHWESTERN
HALF OF THE BASIN. THE WEATHER FRONT CURRENTLY SITUATED OVER KODIAK
ISLAND AND THE SOUTHERN GULF DECELERATES THIS AFTERNOON AND BEGINS TO
WEAKEN AS THE JET STREAM AND ASSOCIATED UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT SHIFTS
EASTWARD. THE FRONT WILL DISSIPATE ALONG THE NORTH GULF COAST
TOMORROW AND ANY PRECIPITATION THE ACCOMPANIES THE FRONT WILL BE
CONFINED TO THE COASTLINE AND UPSLOPED COASTAL MOUNTAIN RANGES. THE
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE SHIFTS EASTWARD ON MONDAY AND ALLOWS FOR THE NEXT
MOISTURE-LADEN WEATHER FRONT TO SURGE ONSHORE OVER THE GULF COAST ON
TUESDAY MORNING.
.SOUTHWEST ALASKA...
THE WEATHER FRONT SOUTH OF THE AKPEN PUSHES NORTH TODAY AND SPREADS
RAIN SHOWERS ALONG THE COAST AND SNOW SHOWERS INLAND FROM SOUTH TO
NORTH THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING. THE FRONT DISSIPATES
AS IT MOVES NORTHWARD...BUT AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL ROTATE
NORTHWARD AROUND THE BERING SEA LOW AND BRING A RENEWED CHANCE OF
PRECIPITATION TO THE REGION. ANOTHER WEATHER FRONT REACHES THE AKPEN
ON MONDAY AFTERNOON AND THE BERING COAST OF SOUTHWEST ALASKA ON
MONDAY NIGHT.
.BERING SEA...
THE LOW SOUTH OF THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS WILL CONTINUE NORTHWARD INTO
THE SOUTHERN BERING SEA TONIGHT AND CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AND TRANSFORM
INTO A COMPLEX LOW ON SUNDAY. THIS LOW WILL BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS
TO THE CENTRAL BERING SEA INTO MONDAY BUT LITTLE IN THE WAY OF WINDS.
THE NEXT WEATHER FRONT MOVES NORTH ACROSS THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS ON
MONDAY MORNING WHILE THE PARENT 980 MB LOW TRACKS EASTWARD AND
REMAINS SOUTH OF THE ISLAND CHAIN.
.LONG TERM FORECAST...
A RELATIVELY WET AND WARM WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH NEXT
WEEK FOR SOUTHERN ALASKA AS A LOW SOUTH OF THE AKPEN ON TUESDAY
MORNING MIGRATES NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE NORTHERN GULF BY THURSDAY
MORNING AND CONTINUES TO BRING MOIST ONSHORE FLOW TO MUCH OF SOUTHERN
ALASKA.
.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...NONE.
MARINE...GALE WARNING...120 130 132 138 150 160 179.
HEAVY FREEZING SPRAY WARNING...140.
