Area forecast discussion, Aug 27, 5:00 PM AKDT, 11 hours before

SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
500 PM AKDT MON AUG 27 2012

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
AN UPPER LOW OVER IS OVER THE BEAUFORT SEA WITH A TROUGH EXTENDING
SOUTH INTO THE GULF OF ALASKA. AT THE SURFACE A 1000 MB LOW IS OVER
THE UPPER YUKON VALLEY WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTHWEST THROUGH
SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA. A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDS FROM THE NORTH
PACIFIC INTO THE EASTERN BERING SEA.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN THE SHORT TERM. ALL MODELS AGREE ON A
LOW FORMING NEAR MONTAGUE ISLAND THIS AFTERNOON AND MOVING THAT LOW
TOWARD SITKA THROUGH TUE AFTERNOON AND BRINGING THE RIDGE OVER THE
EASTERN BERING INTO THE GULF BEHIND THIS LOW. THE MODELS ARE IN
ACCEPTABLE AGREEMENT WITH THE FRONT MOVING INTO THE WESTERN BERING
SEA OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AND DEVELOPING A LOW ALONG THIS FRONT NEAR ST
PAUL TUE NIGHT. MODELS DIVERGE A LITTLE AS THIS LOW IS FORECAST TO
INTENSIFY AS IT MOVES TO NEAR NUNIVAK ISLAND THEN NORTON SOUND
THROUGH WED NIGHT. THE NAM SOLUTION IS SLOWER AND WEAKER THAN THE GFS
AND UKMET. THE GFS ALSO HAS A TRIPLE POINT AND THE NAM HINTS AT A
TRIPLE POINT FORMING ALONG THE ALASKA PENINSULA. THIS WILL RESULT IN
A WEAKER WIND FIELD IN THE EASTERN BERING THAN THE ECMWF AND THE
CURRENT THINKING IS TO TREND TO THE GFS SOLUTION.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHCENTRAL...AS THE FRONT CONTINUES EAST SOME SHOWERS WILL PERSIST
OVER THE SOUTH CENTRAL REGION INTO THE EVENING. NORTHWEST FLOW BEHIND
THE FRONT WILL BRING GUSTY WINDS THROUGHOUT SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA
TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING. THE NEXT FRONT WILL BEGIN TO MOVE
INTO THE REGION WEDNESDAY EVENING TO THURSDAY MORNING BRINGING
WIDESPREAD RAIN AND STRONGER WINDS.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...
AS A RIDGE MOVES IN FROM THE BERING FOG WILL BECOME THE ISSUE ALONG
THE COAST AND OVERNIGHT IN INLAND LOCATIONS. THE NEXT FRONT MOVES
INTO SOUTHWEST ALASKA TUESDAY NIGHT BRINGING WARMER CONDITIONS AND
ANOTHER SHOT OF WET AND WINDY CONDITIONS.

ALEUTIANS AND BERING SEA...
HIGH PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS THE BERING TODAY AND TONIGHT WILL RESULT
IN AREAS OF FOG AND LIGHTER WINDS. A FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE WESTERN
BERING TONIGHT BRINGING RAIN AND STRONGER WINDS WITH TO THE WESTERN
ALEUTIANS THAT WILL RAPIDLY MOVE TO THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN ALEUTIANS
TUE AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...
THE UPPER LOW OVER THE BEAUFORT SEA WILL BE FOLLOWED BY AN UPPER LOW
MOVING INTO NORTHERN BERING THEN OVER THE WESTERN MAINLAND THROUGH
FRI. THIS WILL KEEP THE PATTERN ACTIVE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
WEEK.
