What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Nov 3, 5:30 AM AKDT, 10 hours 30 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Nov 3, 5:30 AM AKDT, 10 hours 30 minutes before
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
530 AM AKDT SAT NOV 3 2012
.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS A DEEP WRAPPED
UP LOW MAKING ITS WAY FROM THE NORTHEAST PACIFIC INTO THE GULF THIS
MORNING. AFTER BOTTOMING OUT IN THE 940S THIS LOW HAS WEAKENED INTO
THE 960S AND IS STILL PRODUCING WIDESPREAD GALE FORCE WINDS ACROSS
THE GULF WATERS. AREA SOUNDINGS SHOW A VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH
DRY ADIABATIC LAPSE RATES NOTED ON THE ANCHORAGE SOUNDING. RADAR
IMAGERY FROM OVERNIGHT SHOWED MODERATE TO HEAVY SHOWERS OVER THE
NORTHERN GULF. THE LIGHTNING DETECTION SYSTEM ALSO INDICATED A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS. THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW OBSERVATIONS OF STRONGER WINDS
TO NEAR STORM FORCE...LIKELY AS A RESULT OF STRONGER WINDS MIXING
DOWN IN THESE SHOWERS. SHOWERS HAVE BEEN HANGING UP ALONG THE COAST
WITH VERY LITTLE MAKING IT OVER THE COASTAL RANGE.
REMNANTS OF THE ORIGINAL OCCLUDED FRONT HAVE BEEN PUSHING WESTWARD
ACROSS SOUTHWEST ALASKA OVERNIGHT PRODUCING AREAS OF LIGHT SNOW
FROM INTERIOR BRISTOL BAY TO THE SOUTHERN KUSKOKWIM VALLEY...LIKELY
WITH VERY LITTLE ACCUMULATION. OTHERWISE...STRONG DEEP NORTHERLY
FLOW DOMINATES THE EASTERN BERING AND WESTERN ALASKA. THIS IS
PRODUCING THE TYPICAL SHOWERS AND GUSTY WINDS AS COLDER AIR MOVES
OVER THE RELATIVELY WARM WATERS OF THE BERING SEA.
.MODEL DISCUSSION...WHILE MODELS GENERALLY SHOW THE SAME SYNOPTIC
SCALE SOLUTION FOR LOW MOVING INTO THE GULF...THERE ARE A LOT OF
MESOSCALE DIFFERENCES RELATED TO UPPER LEVEL WAVES ROTATING AROUND
THE LOW CENTER. THIS MAKES FOR A TRICKY PRECIPITATION AND WIND
FORECAST OVER SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS.
.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...THE BULK OF PRECIPITATION WILL REMAIN ALONG
THE GULF COAST AS LOW TRACKS TO THE NORTHERN GULF TONIGHT.
HOWEVER..THERE ARE A COUPLE UPPER LEVEL WAVES THAT WILL PUSH
INLAND...ONE TODAY AND ANOTHER TONIGHT...WHICH MAY BRING A FEW
SHOWERS TO THE REST OF THE REGION. WINDS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH
AS THE LOW CONTINUES TO WEAKEN BUT...BUT THE SURFACE PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL REMAIN TIGHT ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN GAP WINDS ALONG
THE NORTH GULF COAST AND PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND.
AN UPPER TROUGH OVER NORTHERN ALASKA IS SINKING SOUTHWARD THIS
MORNING...SLOWED BY THE STORM TO THE SOUTH. THIS TROUGH WILL
CONTINUE ITS SLOW PROGRESSION SOUTHWARD AND REACH SOUTHCENTRAL
EARLY NEXT WEEK. ARCTIC AIR WILL USHER SOUTHWARD AHEAD OF THE
UPPER TROUGH HELPING TO FORM A NEW LOW OVER THE NORTHERN GULF.
THIS IN TURN WILL TIGHTEN THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ONCE AGAIN
LEADING TO STRONGER WINDS. THIS WILL ALSO BRING A GOOD CHANCE
OF SNOW TO THE REGION MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
SOUTHWEST ALASKA...THE MAINLAND WILL REMAIN UNDER THE SAME GUSTY
NORTHERLY WINDS TODAY WHILE THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT STAYS
SQUEEZED BETWEEN A DEVELOPING HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN
BERING SEA AND A WEAKENING LOW MOVING INTO THE GULF OF ALASKA.
THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE ALONG THE COAST OF THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA
REGION. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL STALL AND WEAKEN THIS MORNING JUST
WEST OF A LINE FROM DILLINGHAM TO SLEETMUTE BRINGING LIGHT SNOW
THIS EARLY THIS MORNING...TAPERING OFF TOWARD LATE MORNING. HIGH
CLOUDS WILL REMAIN OVER THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY AND BRISTOL BAY AREAS
WHILE THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA WILL REMAIN MOSTLY SUNNY. THE SAME GENERAL
SURFACE PRESSURE PATTERN WILL REMAIN THROUGH MID WEEK KEEPING THE
GUSTY DRY NORTHERLY WINDS IN PLACE.
BERING SEA AND ALEUTIANS...WEAK DISTURBANCES ALOFT COMBINED WITH
COLD AIR STREAMING DOWN FROM THE BERING STRAIT WILL RESULT IN
SCATTERED SNOW AND RAIN SHOWERS OVER MOST OF THE BERING SEA
THROUGH THE WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY FOR UPSLOPE REGIONS OF THE
CENTRAL/EASTERN ALEUTIANS AND ALASKAN PENINSULA. OVER THE WEEKEND
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK A HIGH PRESSURE CENTER OVER THE WESTERN BERING
WILL SHIFT EASTWARD USHERING IN A BREAK FROM THE GUSTY NORTHERLY
WINDS AND SHOWERS OF THE PAST WEEK.
.LONG TERM FORECAST...MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO DEPICT A
PROGRESSION OF THE LONG-WAVE NEXT WEEK WITH RIDGE CURRENTLY OVER
SIBERIA SHIFTING EASTWARD TO MAINLAND ALASKA MID WEEK WHILE A
LARGE PACIFIC LOW WANDERS NORTHWARD TOWARD THE ALEUTIANS. FLOW
APPEARS AS IF IT MIGHT BECOME EVEN MORE PROGRESSIVE AS WE HEAD
FURTHER OUT IN TIME. BASED ON THIS EXPECT A MUCH MORE ACTIVE
PATTERN FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA BEGINNING LATER NEXT WEEK.
