SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
500 AM AKST WED NOV 9 2011

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER EASTERN RUSSIA THIS MORNING WITH EMBEDDED LOWS
NEAR KAMCHATKA AND NEAR THE BERING STRAIT. A STRONG RIDGE IS OVER
MAINLAND AK. AT THE SURFACE...A DEEP LOW IS MOVING ONSHORE JUST WEST
OF THE BERING STRAIT...WHILE A WEAK TROUGH IS OVER THE EXTREME
WESTERN BERING. WEAKENING LOW PRESSURE IS ALSO OVER THE NORTHERN GULF
OF AK. SATPIX SHOW THE DECAYING REMNANTS OF THE FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH
THE BERING LOW...DRAPED JUST SOUTH OF THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS AND
AKPEN...AND EXTENDING OVER MOST OF THE AREA SOUTH AND EAST OF THE AK
RANGE,

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

MODELS ARE IN EXCELLENT AGREEMENT THROUGH THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS.
THE BERING LOW MOVES INTO THE CHUKCHI SEA TODAY...BUT THE STRONG
SOUTHWEST FLOW ACROSS THE BERING PERSISTS THROUGH THU...ENHANCED
TODAY BY A WAVE MOVING FROM KAMCHATKA TO THE EASTERN BERING BY
TONIGHT. A WEAK WEATHER FRONT FROM A KAMCHATKA LOW MOVES ACROSS THE
WESTERN AND CENTRAL BERING THU AND THU NIGHT. THE NEXT NORTH PACIFIC
LOW THEN CROSSES THE ALEUTIANS THU NIGHT AND MOVES INLAND OVER
BRISTOL BAY FRI NIGHT INTO SAT. THE EASTERN SOLUTION IS LESS DYNAMIC
AS THE GULF LOW DISSIPATES LATER TODAY AND A SMALL LOW DEVELOPS OVER
CHIGNIK. THIS LOW MOVES ACROSS THE GULF THU...MOVING INLAND NEAR
YAKUTAT THU NIGHT. THE NEXT FEATURE IS THE BRISTOL BAY LOW...WHICH
SPINS OFF A TRIPLE POINT LOW INTO THE GULF FRI NIGHT THAT MOVES
INLAND OVER YAKUTAT ON SAT.

THE FORECAST UTILIZES THE NAM IN THE SHORT TERM EXCEPT FOR THE GFS
POSITION OF THE LOW THAT MOVES INTO BRISTOL BAY. THE MID AND LONG
RANGE ARE THEN A BLEND OF GFS AND HPC GUIDANCE.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...

IN THE WEST...STORM AND GALE FORCE WINDS WILL CONTINUE INTO WED NIGHT
ALONG WITH RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS. PRECIPITATION WILL CHANGE TO RAIN
ON THU AND CONTINUE INTO FRI AS THE LOW MOVES TO BRISTOL BAY. RAIN
WILL CHANGE TO SNOW SHOWERS LATER ON FRI AND LAST INTO THE WEEKEND AS
THE LOW MOVES EAST.

FOR SW AK...STRONG ONSHORE FLOW WILL BRING RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS
TODAY AND TONIGHT...AS WELL AS COASTAL FLOODING TO THE KUSKOKWIM
DELTA. SNOW SHOWERS WILL THEN CONTINUE INTO THU NIGHT. SNOW WILL
CHANGE TO OR MIX WITH RAIN FRI AS THE LOW APPROACHES BRISTOL BAY..AND
THEN CHANGE BACK TO SNOW SHOWERS ON SAT.

SOUTH AND EAST OF THE AK RANGE...SNOW SHOWERS WILL LINGER AS THE GULF
LOW DISSIPATES... AND REMNANTS OF THE BERING FRONT MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA. RIDGE BUILDING THU NIGHT WILL END SHOWERS UNTIL MORE SNOW
ARRIVES WITH THE BRISTOL BAY LOW FRI INTO SAT.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...

SNOW SHOWERS IN THE WEST AND OVER SW AK WILL END BY MON BENEATH A
RIDGE...BUT WILL PERSIST SE OF THE AK RANGE.
