Area forecast discussion, Jun 14, 5:00 AM AKDT, 10 hours 1 minute before

SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
500 AM AKDT TUE JUN 14 2011

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MAJOR SYNOPTIC FEATURES ARE HANDLED WELL IN THE SHORT TERM. THE GFS
HAS COME IN LINE WITH THE REST OF THE GLOBAL GUIDANCE WITH THE
PROGRESSION OF THE UPPER LOW CURRENTLY OVER BRISTOL BAY MOVING
TOWARDS THE ALASKAN PENINSULA AND INTO THE NORTHERN GULF BY WEDNESDAY
EVENING. BEYOND THIS TIME FRAME SOME SPREAD EXISTS WITH THE
PROPAGATION AND PLACEMENT OF NORTHERN PACIFIC LOW AS IT SKIRTS THE
ALEUTIANS WHILE THE PREVIOUS WILL MEANDER IN THE NORTHERN GULF.

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
TWO UPPER LEVEL LOWS CONTINUE TO AFFECT SOUTHERN ALASKA. THE FIRST
MOVING INTO BRISTOL BAY THE SECOND A WEAKER WAVE OVER THE NORTHERN
