SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
200 PM AKST WED DEC 5 2012

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THERE IS A LARGE UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER SOUTHERN ALASKA AND THE
NORTHERN GULF OF ALASKA. THE BLOCKING RIDGE THAT HAS BEEN OVER THE
BERING SEA FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS IS RETROGRADING INTO
NORTHEAST RUSSIA.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
GUIDANCE IS IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT FOR THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS OF
THE FORECAST. THERE IS STILL SOME DISAGREEMENT ON THE SYSTEM MOVING
INTO THE AREA ON THE WEEKEND. THE MAIN PROBLEMS ARE THE LOCATION OF
THE LOW AND HOW FAST THE INITIAL WARM FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE GULF
OF ALASKA. THE GFS AND NAM ARE VERY CLOSE ON BOTH OF THESE...WITH
THE NAM JUST A TOUCH FASTER WITH THE WARM FRONT. THE ECMWF IS
FURTHER WEST WITH THE SURFACE LOW AND SLOWER WITH THE WARM FRONT AND
THE GLOBAL GEM IS IN BETWEEN THE GFS AND ECMWF. SO THERE IS STILL
SOME UNCERTAINTY...BUT IT IS LESS THAN IN PREVIOUS FORECASTS. THE
AFTERNOON FORECAST GENERALLY LEANS TOWARD THE NAM AND GFS SOLUTIONS.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
THE CURRENT PATTERN OF COLD AND DRY OVER THE MAINLAND AND COLD AND
SHOWERY OVER KODIAK/AKPEN/ALEUTIANS/BERING SEA WILL CONTINUE
OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY THURSDAY. INLAND TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE A
BIT THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS THE CORE OF THE SOUTHERN ALASKA UPPER LOW
SPLITS WITH ONE HALF OF THE LOW MOVING EAST INTO THE PANHANDLE AND
THE OTHER HALF RETROGRADING INTO THE EASTERN BERING SEA. SHOWERY
CONDITIONS OVER THE OTHER AREAS WILL DECREASE AS THE COLD ADVECTION
TAPERS OFF.

THE BLOCKING HIGH WILL CONTINUE TO RETROGRADE INTO THE WEEKEND
SATURDAY ALLOWING THE SOUTHERN ALASKA LOW TO ALSO CONTINUE TO
RETROGRADE INTO THE BERING SEA. THIS WILL OPEN UP SOUTHERN ALASKA TO
MORE SOUTHERLY FLOW ALOFT BY LATER FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND. A LOW
WILL DEVELOP SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS AND BEGIN TO MOVE NORTH ON
FRIDAY. A WARM FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW WILL MOVE INTO THE
EASTERN ALEUTIANS...ALASKA PANHANDLE...AND SOUTHERN GULF FRIDAY
AFTERNOON. THE WARM FRONT WILL REACH SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL
ALASKA ON SATURDAY FOR THE FIRST DECENT CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION IN
QUITE A WHILE.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL BE OVER SOUTHERN ALASKA SUNDAY AND
MONDAY FOR CONTINUED CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION. GFS AND ECMWF SHOW A
SHARP TROUGH MOVING THROUGH SOUTHERN ALASKA IN THE MONDAY TO MONDAY
NIGHT TIME FRAME. THERE WILL BE A BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION WITH A
SHORT WAVE RIDGE BEHIND THIS TROUGH ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...BUT BY
THIS TIME THE DIFFERENCES IN TIMING AMONG THE GLOBAL MODELS IS
STARTING TO BECOME LARGE.
