SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
1215 PM AKDT SUN JUL 1 2012

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...A HIGH AMPLITUDE LONG-WAVE TROUGH
ENCOMPASSES ALL OF THE ALASKA REGION WITH A FAIRLY COMPLICATED SERIES
OF LOWS AND SHORT-WAVES EMBEDDED WITHIN. AN UPPER LOW REMAINS NEARLY
STATIONARY OVER NORTHERN BRITISH AND SOUTHERN YUKON WHILE A WEAK
RIDGE AXIS IS CENTERED OVER THE CENTRAL MAINLAND. SHORT-WAVES ARE
DROPPING SOUTHWARD IN BETWEEN THE TWO BRINGING RAIN OR SHOWERS TO
THE COPPER RIVER BASIN AND EASTERN PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND. THE RIDGE
AXIS IS FARTHER WEST THAN ON SATURDAY WHICH IS ALLOWING CLOUDS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHORT-WAVES TO ADVECT OVER MUCH OF THE REST OF
SOUTHCENTRAL. A SHORT-WAVE TROUGH IS MOVING SLOWLY ONSHORE OF WESTERN
ALASKA...AND PROGRESSING EVEN SLOWER WITH TIME DUE TO THE DOWNSTREAM
RIDGE. THE COMBINATION OF THIS TROUGH AND LOW LEVEL ONSHORE FLOW IS
PRODUCING WIDESPREAD STRATUS ALONG THE SOUTHWEST ALASKA COAST ALONG
WITH AREAS OF RAIN AND FOG. A SERIES OF WEAKER TROUGHS ARE CROSS
THE BERING SEA. LOW LEVELS ARE ALREADY SATURATED SO THESE ARE NOT
PRODUCING MUCH NOTABLE DIFFERENCE IN THE WEATHER AT THE SURFACE
WHICH IS DOMINATED BY LOW CLOUDS AND AREAS OF FOG. LOOKING UPSTREAM
TO SIBERIA...A VERY LARGE UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER THE RUSSIAN ARCTIC
IS POISED TO DROP SOUTHWARD INTO THE NORTHERN BERING SEA.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...AFTER A FEW DAYS OF VERY GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT
SOLUTIONS NOW DIVERGE DRAMATICALLY WITH HANDLING OF LOW/TROUGH
COMING OUT OF SIBERIA. THE GFS/NAM HAVE TAKEN A 180...FROM TRACKING
THE LOW TO SOUTH OF KODIAK ISLAND TO KEEPING THE LOW OVER THE
NORTHERN BERING BEFORE LIFTING BACK NORTHWARD. A LOOK AT THE GFS
ENSEMBLE SHOWS THE ENSEMBLE MEAN CONTINUES TO FAVOR THE SOUTHERN
SOLUTION. IT IS UNUSUAL TO SEE THE OPERATIONAL RUN DIFFER THIS
SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE ENSEMBLE MEAN. ALL OTHER AVAILABLE MODELS
CONTINUE TO TRACK THE LOW SOUTHWARD. THEREFORE...WILL STICK WITH
INHERITED FORECAST WITH TRACK OF THIS LOW. PRIOR TO THIS MODELS
REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...

SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...A WEAK UPPER RIDGE WILL REMAIN CENTERED OVER
SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA THROUGH WEDNESDAY...BUT WILL GRADUALLY CHANGE
ORIENTATION FROM NORTH-SOUTH TO NORTHWEST-SOUTHEAST AS THE UPPER
LOW OVER THE YUKON LIFTS NORTHWESTWARD TOWARD NORTHEAST ALASKA AND
THE UPPER LOW/TROUGH DIGS SOUTHEASTWARD OUT OF SIBERIA AND INTO THE
BERING SEA AND PUSHES UP AGAINST THE RIDGE MID WEEK. SHORT-WAVES
WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE COPPER BASIN AND EASTERN
PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND THROUGH MONDAY BRINGING PERIODS OF RAIN OR
SHOWERS. AS FLOW SHIFTS ON TUESDAY THE STRONGEST SHORT-WAVES WILL
REMAIN OVER INTERIOR ALASKA SO CONDITIONS SHOULD BE DRIER AND WARMER.
THE WESTERN PORTION OF SOUTHCENTRAL FROM THE KENAI PENINSULA TO
ANCHORAGE AND THE MAT-SU WILL STAY MOSTLY DRY WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF SCATTERED CONVECTION OVER INLAND MOUNTAINS. THE RIDGE WILL SHIFT
BACK EASTWARD A BIT ON MONDAY WHICH SHOULD HELP GET RID OF SOME OF
THESE CLOUDS...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.
STABLE LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES MEANS THE MARINE LAYER WILL LIKELY
REDEVELOP IN COOK INLET EACH NIGHT PROVIDING CLOUDS THROUGH THE
MORNING HOURS.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...THE TROUGH MOVING ONSHORE SOUTHWEST ALASKA TODAY
WILL WEAKEN AS IT MOVES EASTWARD STRETCHING OUT ALONG THE WEST
SIDE OF THE DOWNSTREAM RIDGE. THE BIGGEST IMPACT WILL BE TO AID
IN SHOWER DEVELOPMENT OVER INTERIOR SOUTHWEST ALASKA. A SHORT-WAVE
TROUGH ROUNDING THE SIBERIAN LOW WILL ARRIVE ALONG THE SOUTHWEST
COAST MONDAY NIGHT ALONG WITH A FRONT AT THE SURFACE. THIS WILL
PRODUCE WIDESPREAD RAIN ALONG THE COAST MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.
THE TROUGH WILL THEN BEGIN TO WEAKEN AS LIFTS NORTHEASTWARD UP
THE WEST SIDE OF THE RIDGE...SO INLAND LOCATIONS MAY NOT SEE MUCH
PRECIP OUT OF IT. THE MARINE LAYER WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT THE
SOUTHWEST COAST WITH STRATUS AND FOG EACH NIGHT AND MORNING THANKS
TO PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW.

BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS...UPPER TROUGH AND SURFACE FRONT WILL QUICKLY
TRACK ACROSS THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT
BRINGING A BRIEF PERIOD OF RAIN AND STRONGER WINDS. AFTER THIS
MOVES THROUGH MAJOR ACTIVITY WILL REMAIN OVER THE NORTHERN BERING
AND FAR EASTERN BERING. THE UPPER RIDGE CURRENTLY OVER THE NORTHWEST
PACIFIC WILL FLATTEN OUT WHICH WILL ALLOW ABUNDANT MOISTURE AND
WARM AIR TO ADVECT NORTHWARD FROM THE PACIFIC INTO THE BERING AND
ALEUTIANS. THIS WILL LEAD TO WIDESPREAD FOG...POSSIBLY DENSE AS WE
MOVE INTO TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...THE FOCUS DURING THE EXTENDED PERIOD WILL BE
THE VERY LARGE UPPER LOW CURRENTLY OVER THE RUSSIAN ARCTIC. AS
MENTIONED IN THE MODEL DISCUSSION THE LATEST GFS/NAM SOLUTION FOR
TRACK OF THIS LOW IS BEING DISCOUNTED FRO THE MOMENT. WILL STICK
WITH A TRACK ALONG THE SOUTHWEST COAST AND SOUTH OF KODIAK ISLAND
WHICH WILL BRING PERIODS OF RAIN OR SHOWERS TO THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND
DURING THE MIDDLE TO LATE PORTIONS OF THE WEEK. SOME IMPROVEMENT
WOULD BE LIKELY NEXT WEEKEND AS THE LOW TRACKS SOUTH OF THE GULF
OF ALASKA. IF THE GFS/NAM SOLUTION TURNED OUT TO BE CORRECT THE
FORECAST WOULD CHANGE SIGNIFICANTLY. MEANWHILE...PERSISTENT FLOW
AROUND THE NORTH PACIFIC RIDGE WILL BRING A STEADY SUPPLY OF RAIN
AND FOG TO THE ALEUTIANS AND BERING SEA.

.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...NONE.
MARINE...NONE.
FIRE WEATHER...NONE.
