NORTHERN ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FAIRBANKS AK
141 PM AKDT MON AUG 13 2012

.DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM MODEL RUNS OUT THROUGH WEDNESDAY ARE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT.

SURFACE TROUGH AND FRONT EXTENDING EASTWARD FROM A 997
MB LOW NEAR 70N/157E WILL MOVE NORTHEASTWARD TONIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY...REINFORCED BY AN UPPER LOW AND TROUGH MOVING EASTWARD
INTO THE CHUKCHI SEA...WILL BRING RAIN TO MUCH OF THE WEST AND
NORTHWEST COASTS BEGINNING WEDNESDAY MORNING...ALONG WITH SOUTH
TO SOUTHWEST WINDS MAINLY 15-25 KT.

THE NEXT LOW ON LINE IS NOW IN ITS EARLY DEVELOPING STAGES...CENTRAL
PRESSURE AROUND 996 MB NEAR 62N/130E IN THE RUSSIAN INTERIOR. THIS
SYSTEM IS PROGGED TO DEEPEN TO AROUND 985 MB NEAR 67N/166E IN
EASTERN SIBERIA BY EARLY WED...THEN MOVE INTO THE CHUKCHI SEA
EAST OF WRANGEL ISLAND BY EARLY THURSDAY. THIS SYSTEM AND ITS
ASSOCIATED FRONT WILL BRING ANOTHER PERIOD OF RAIN TO THE WEST
AND NORTHWEST COASTS ALONG WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS 25-40 KT.
ALONG THE NORTHWEST COAST...THERE MAY NOT BE MUCH OF AN
INTERMISSION BETWEEN THE PERIODS OF RAIN ASSOCIATED
WITH THESE TWO SYSTEMS. THE SECOND SYSTEM WILL SPREAD
RAIN INTO ZONE 202 AS WELL.

OVER THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN INTERIOR...UPPER RIDGING WILL KEEP
TEMPERATURES WELL ABOVE NORMAL TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...HIGHS WILL
BE WELL INTO THE 70S IN MANY AREAS. UPPER RIDGING WILL ALSO PERSIST
OVER THE WESTERN INTERIOR...BUT WITH 850 MB AND SURFACE TEMPERATURES
CLOSER TO NORMALS.

COASTAL HAZARD POTENTIAL...STORM SURGE OF 2 TO AROUND 2.8 FEET
WITH MAXIMUM WINDS OF 25-30 KT AND SEAS TO 6-8 FEET OFFSHORE
EXPECTED LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT ALONG THE
SEWARD PENINSULA COAST FROM EAST OF WALES TO UNALAKLEET. WAVES
WILL DIMINISH AS THEY BREAK ONSHORE. THIS SHOULD RESULT IN SOME
ELEVATED SURF ONSHORE BUT CONDITIONS DO NOT APPEAR TO BE SERIOUS
ENOUGH TO ISSUE A HIGH SURF ADVISORY. IN THE NOME AREA...MAXIMUM
SURGE OF ABOUT 2.5 FEET IS EXPECTED DURING THE MID DAY PERIOD
THURSDAY...WITH MAXIMUM TIDES OF AROUND OF 4 FEET. AT
GOLOVIN...MAXIMUM SURGE OF ABOUT 2.8 FEET AND MAXIMUM TIDE OF
ABOUT 4.8 FEET EXPECTED THURSDAY AFTERNOON. ALONG THE SOUTH SHORE
OF ST LAWRENCE ISLAND...SOUTH WINDS TO 30-35 KT WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL PRODUCE MODERATE SURF...SEAS TO 7-9
FEET OFFSHORE. WAVES WILL DIMINISH AS THEY BREAK ONSHORE. SEAS TO
7-10 FEET CAN BE EXPECTED OFFSHORE FROM THE NORTHWEST COAST
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT BUT THE STRONGEST WAVE
ACTION WILL BE OFFSHORE. SEA LEVELS COULD BE AS MUCH AS 1.5 TO 1.8
FEET ABOVE NORMAL ALONG THE COAST FROM NORTHEAST OF CAPE LISBURNE
TO WAINWRIGHT BUT WITH THE WINDS BLOWING APPROXIMATELY PARALLEL TO
THE COASTLINE...HIGH WAVES ARE NOT EXPECTED ONSHORE.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
WARM AND DRY TUE AND WED WITH MIN RH NEAR 30 PERCENT IN SOME
AREAS. INTERIOR SURFACE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT ON
TUESDAY...SOUTHWEST 10-15 MPH IN MANY AREAS WEDNESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
THE TWO WEATHER SYSTEMS ARE EXPECTED TO PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT
RAINFALL OVER NORTHWEST ALASKA DURING THE NEXT 3 DAYS...
WITH THE HEAVIEST AMOUNTS BEING ALONG SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST
FACING SLOPES OF THE WESTERN BROOKS RANGE. ADDITIONALLY THE
SECOND SYSTEM MAY PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL IN ZONE 211
AND IN THE SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS OF ZONE 210 WED NIGHT INTO
THURSDAY NIGHT. CURRENT GFS...NAM12 AND NAM40...AND ECMWF IN
GENERAL AGREEMENT ON A BROAD SCALE...RAINFALL TOTALS THROUGH
THURSDAY AFTERNOON COULD 2-4 INCHES IN ZONES 208...1-3 INCHES IN
ZONE 207...1 TO LOCALLY 2+ INCHES IN ZONE 217...1 INCH OR MORE BE
AS MUCH AS 3-4 INCHES OVER THE SOUTH AND WEST FACING SLOPES OF THE
WESTERN BROOKS RANGE...AS MUCH AS 1 TO 2 INCHES IN ZONE 217...0.75
TO 1.5 INCHES IN ZONE 201 AND NEARBY AREAS IN ZONE 205. DOWNSLOPE
FLOW WILL RESULT IN MUCH LESS RAIN IN AREAS IMMEDIATELY IN THE LEE
OF THE BROOKS RANGE. THESE RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL LIKELY CAUSE SOME
SMALL STREAMS TO RISE TO NEAR OR ABOVE BANKFULL STAGES. EVENTUAL
RISES IN THE LEVELS OF LARGER RIVERS IN THE NOATAK BASIN ARE
POSSIBLE AS WATER MOVES FROM THE TRIBUTARIES INTO THE MAIN
STEM RIVERS.

&&

.AFG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR PKZ210-PKZ220-PKZ225.

BRISK WIND ADVISORY FOR PKZ235-PKZ240.
