Area forecast discussion, Mar 25, 2:29 PM AKDT, 11 hours 33 minutes before

NORTHERN ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FAIRBANKS AK
229 PM AKDT SUN MAR 25 2012

.DISCUSSION...
MODELS IN DECENT AGREEMENT THROUGH 60 HOURS. MODERATELY STRONG LOW
IN THE BERING SEA WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EASTWARD AND THEN HEAD
TOWARD COLD BAY BY MON AFTERNOON. HIGH PRESSURE WELL NORTH OF CAPE
LISBURNE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE WEST AND WEAKEN.

UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EASTWARD
ACROSS THE INTERIOR AND CONTINUE TO PRODUCE SNOWFALL OVER THE
AREA. THE PRECIPITATION WILL STAY NORTH OF THE MIDDLE TANANA VALLEY
FOR THE MOST PART.

THE GREAT WARM UP OVER THE INTERIOR WILL BEGIN ON TUE AS THE UPPER
LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS IN FROM EAST TO WEST ACROSS THE INTERIOR. THIS
WILL KEEP THE SKIES RELATIVELY CLEAR AND THE TEMPERATURES ON THE
RISE. THIS WILL CERTAINLY BRING TEMPERATURES OVER THE FREEZING
MARK FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A LONG WHILE...UNLESS THE TEMPS DECIDE
TO POP UP NEAR THERE ON MON ALTHOUGH THE UPPER LEVEL TEMPERATURES
DO NOT RAISE GREATLY UNTIL TUESDAY. UPPER LEVEL TEMPERATURES DO
TRY TO SLIDE BACK DOWN BY NEXT WEEKEND THOUGH.

AFTER NEXT WEEKEND...THE RIDGE DOES APPEAR TO REBUILD OVER
NORTHERN ALASKA AND BRING IN SPRINGTIME TEMPERATURES.

WIND ALONG THE NORTHWEST ARCTIC COAST ARE COMBINING WITH THE COLD
AIR ALREADY IN PLACE TO CONTINUE THE WIND CHILL ISSUES FOR ZONE
201 THROUGH AT LEAST MON.
