200 PM AKDT TUE AUG 9 2011

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD SYNOPTIC AGREEMENT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING.  ALL
MODELS ARE CLOSE WITH THE TRACK AND SPEED OF THE REMNANTS OF EX
TYPHOON MERBOK PUTTING IT WEST OF ATTU BY FRI MORNING.  IT LOOKS LIKE
MOST OF THE ENERGY OF THIS STORM WILL STALL IN THE WESTERN BERING AND
THEN BE ABSORBED BY A LOW OVER THE SEA OF OKHOSTK.

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A BROAD LONG WAVE TROUGH SITS OVER EASTERN SIBERIA AND MAINLAND
ALASKA WITH A WEAK UPPER LEVEL LOW CENTERED OVER THE CHUKCHI SEA. AN
UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE OVER COOK INLET WILL MOVE TO THE COPPER RIVER
BASIN TONIGHT WITH AN UPPER LOW FORMING IN THE TROUGH OVER THE
NORTHEASTERN GULF ON WED.  AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS BUILDING OVER THE
BERING SEA WITH AN AXIS ALONG 170W BY THU AND THEN BECOME STATIONARY
THROUGH SAT.

.AT THE SURFACE...A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE COVERS MOST OF THE
MAINLAND.  SHOWERS ARE ENDING FROM THE WEST OVER SOUTH CENTRAL AS THE
UPPER TROUGH MOVES THROUGH THE AREA.  HIGH PRESSURE IS BUILDING
ACROSS THE BERING AND IS SUPPORTING STRATUS AND FOG ACROSS THE
REGION. EX TYPHOON MERBOK IS ABOUT 500 MILES SOUTHWEST OF ATTU AND
MOVING NORTHWARD.  MODELS PUT THIS STORM AT 50N 167W WED AFTERNOON
THEN WEAKEN IT AS IT MOVES TO 200 MILES WEST OF ATTU BY FRI
AFTERNOON.  THIS STORM WILL BRING GALE FORCE WINDS AND RAIN TO THE
WESTERN AND CENTRAL ALEUTIANS TONIGHT THROUGH WED NIGHT.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
.SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA...SHOWERS ENDING FORM THE WEST WITH THE UPPER
TROUGH PASSAGE TONIGHT.  LIGHT ONSHORE FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT
SHOWERS ALONG THE EASTERN GULF INTO WEDNESDAY UNTIL OFFSHORE FLOW
BEGINS WEDNESDAY EVENING AS A RIDGE BUILDS OVER SOUTHWEST ALASKA.  AS
A RESULT OF THE RIDGE OFFSHORE FLOW ALONG THE GULF COAST LATE WED AND
THU WILL HELP TO DRY AND WARM MUCH OF SOUTH CENTRAL EAST OF CORDOVA
INTO THE WEEKEND.

.SOUTHWEST ALASKA...A STRONG SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BUILD
JUST OFFSHORE OF WESTERN ALASKA TONIGHT THEN MOVE INLAND WED AND WED
NIGHT.  STRONG SUBSIDENCE FROM THE RIDGE ALOFT AND LIGHT SURFACE
WINDS SHOULD HELP TO SUPPORT THE FORMATION OF FOG ACROSS THE EASTERN
BERING AND ALONG THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND COAST AT NIGHT OVER THE NEXT
SEVERAL DAYS.

.BERING SEA...ALEUTIANS... THE MAIN FOCUS FOR THIS FORECAST IS THE
APPROACH OF THE REMNANTS OF EX TYPHOON MERBOK TO THE WESTERN BERING
WED NIGHT. GALES AND STEADY RAIN WILL IMPACT THE WESTERN ALEUTIAN
ISLANDS AND WESTERN CENTRAL ALEUTIANS LATE TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY.
MEANWHILE...A STRONG RIDGE WILL KEEP CONDITIONS RELATIVELY DRY AND
CALM ACROSS THE EASTERN BERING.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...
THE BERING SEA RIDGE IS FORECAST TO BREAK DOWN BY SUN WITH LOW
PRESSURE BRIDGING ACROSS THE ALEUTIANS INTO THE GULF BY MID WEEK.
