Area forecast discussion, Feb 18, 4:32 AM AKST, 9 hours 38 minutes before
NORTHERN ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FAIRBANKS AK 432 AM AKST SAT FEB 18 2012 .SYNOPSIS... ALOFT... LONG WAVE PATTERN CONSISTING OF A TROUGH OVER THE BERING AND A RIDGE OVER NW CANADA WILL BECOME PROGRESSIVE NEXT WEEK WITH A RIDGE BUILDING OVER ALASKA LATE NEXT WEEK. SEVERAL SHORT WAVES WILL MAKE THEIR WAY NORTH OVER NORTHERN ALASKA THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WITH A SURFACE TROUGH/FRONT COINCIDENT WITH THEM. THIS WILL BRING PERIODS OF SNOW TO THE WEST COAST THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WHILE THE INTERIOR WILL REMAIN UNDER WEAK DOWN SLOPE FLOW AND REMAIN MOSTLY DRY WITH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES. THE FIRST SHORT WAVE NOW NEAR ANVIK WILL MOVE TO NEAR KOTZEBUE BY SAT NIGHT. THERE ARE ONLY MID-LEVEL CLOUDS AND FLURRIES WITH THIS FEATURE. SURFACE... HIGH PRESSURE NORTH OF THE ARCTIC COAST WILL PERSIST THROUGH MON. A LOW PRESSURE TROUGH FROM THE SEWARD PENINSULA EAST WILL MOVE NORTH OVER THE CHUKCHI SEA AND NORTH SLOPE OF ALASKA SUN PM. THERE WILL BE FLURRIES WITH THIS TROUGH INLAND AND ARCTIC COAST AND AN INCH OF SNOW WITH THE TROUGH ALONG THE WEST COAST. E WINDS 15 KT AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL INCREASE TO 20 KT SUN AS THE FRONT MOVES OVER THE ARCTIC COAST. NE WINDS 20-30 KT OVER ZONE 213 WILL PERSIST INTO SUN ALONG WITH BLOWING SNOW. A WEATHER FRONT IN SOUTHWEST ALASKA WILL MOVE NORTH TO THE SEWARD PENINSULA SUN NIGHT. THIS WILL SPREAD SEVERAL MORE INCHES OF SNOW OVER THE WEST COAST TONIGHT AND SUN ALONG WITH BLOWING SNOW. A VERY STRONG LOW WILL MOVE OVER THE ALASKA PENINSULA MON. THIS WILL CAUSE INCREASED EAST WINDS ACROSS THE INTERIOR. && .DISCUSSION... MODELS INITIALIZE WELL AND SHOW SIMILAR SOLUTIONS THROUGH 3PM SAT. AFTER THAT THE GFS DEVELOPS A STRONGER LOW ALOFT IN THE N PACIFIC AND STRONGER RIDGE OVER ALASKA. FAVOR THE GFS SOLUTION AS IT HAS A STRONG JET AND JET STREAK SUPPORTING IT. THE MODELS HAVE TROUBLE WITH THE TIMING OF THESE STRONG JET FEATURES SO THIS GIVES US BELOW AVERAGE CONFIDENCE ON THE TIMING. THE STRONGER RIDGING ALOFT ON THE GFS AFFECTS THE LOW MOVING INTO THE N GULF OF ALASKA TODAY, AND WE FAVOR THE GFS WHICH WEAKENS IT MORE QUICKLY TONIGHT THAN THE NAM DUE TO THIS STRONGER RIDGE. && .AFG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... BRISK WIND ADVISORY FOR PKZ200-PKZ210. && JB FEB 12
