NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
500 PM AKDT MON JUN 11 2012

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A UPPER LOW REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE GULF OF ALASKA. A SHORT
WAVE TROUGH HAD DEVELOPED OVER THE SOUTHCENTRAL INTERIOR AND THE
KUSKOKWIM VALLEY OVERNIGHT AND IS SLOWLY DRIFTING SOUTH TOWARD THE
GULF. AREAS OF RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER TROUGH WERE FOUND OVER
THE COPPER RIVER BASIN, THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY AND PRINCE WILLIAM
SOUND. SCATTERED SHOWERS FELL OVER THE REST OF THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND.

A WEAK SURFACE LOW REMAINS NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE WESTERN GULF
AND A THERMAL TROUGH PERSISTS OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST
INTERIOR. AN AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO SIT OVER THE EASTERN
BERING SEA WHILE A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WEAKENS OVER THE WESTERN
BERING.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE MAJOR SURFACE FEATURES THROUGH
WED NIGHT. THE TIMING AND THE EXTENT OF THE RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THE
SHORTWAVES IS STILL A PROBLEM BECAUSE EACH MODEL HANDLES

WESTERN CANADA TONIGHT WHILE ANOTHER UPPER LOW OVER THE NORTHERN
YUKON TERRITORY MOVES INTO THE EASTERN INTERIOR TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY. THE UPPER LOW OVER THE CHUKCHI SEA WILL SHIFT SOUTHWARD IN

OF SHORTWAVE TROUGH SOUTH THROUGH CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN ALASKA THROUGH
WEDNESDAY.

.SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA AND THE GULF...AREAS OF RAIN OVER THE COPPER
RIVER BASIN AND THE SUSITNA VALLEY WILL SPREAD SOUTH INTO THE
MATANUSKA VALLEY, ANCHORAGE AND THE KENAI PENINSULA TONIGHT AND
TUESDAY MORNING. RAIN WILL BECOME SCATTERED SHOWERS TUESDAY AFTERNOON
OVER MOST OF THE REGION. ANOTHER AREA OF RAIN WILL DEVELOP OVER THE
WESTERN INTERIOR TUESDAY WILL MOVE THROUGH THE SUSITNA VALLEY, KENAI
PENINSULA AND POSSIBLY THE ANCHORAGE BOWL TUESDAY NIGHT.

.SOUTHWEST ALASKA...AREAS OF RAIN WILL DEVELOP OVER INTERIOR SECTION
AS A SHORTWAVE MOVES THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT AND TUESDAY. RAIN WILL
BECOME SCATTERED SHOWERS TUESDAY EVENING WITH PARTIAL CLEAR OCCURRING
ON WEDNESDAY.

.BERING SEA AND ALEUTIANS...THE LOW OVER THE WESTERN BERING WILL
DISSIPATE TUESDAY NIGHT. THE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL PERSIST OVER
THE EASTERN BERING AND EXPAND INTO WESTERN BERING WEDNESDAY.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...
THE UPPER PATTERN WILL WEAKEN FROM MIDWEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. THE
UPPER LOW OVER THE EASTERN INTERIOR WILL MOVE SOUTH AND BECOME
STATIONARY OVER THE CENTRAL GULF FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE
CENTRAL AND EASTERN BERING WILL MOVE NORTHWEST AND WEAKEN OVER
SIBERIA FRIDAY NIGHT. A WEAK DEFORMATION ZONE WILL FORM OVER THE
ALASKAN MAINLAND FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
