NORTHERN ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FAIRBANKS AK
423 AM AKDT WED JUN 20 2012

.DISCUSSION...
UPPER AIR...AN ELONGATED RIDGE ALOFT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND
WILL CONSOLIDATE INTO A CLOSED 570-572 DM CENTER ALONG THE
YUKON/NORTHWEST TERRITORIES BORDER BY 00Z FRI. A DEEP VORTEX IN
THE HIGH ARCTIC NEAR 80N 170W WILL MOVE TO THE NORTHERN CANADIAN
ARCHIPELAGO FRI. A TROUGH EXTENDING SOUTHWEST FROM THE MAIN LOW
WILL EXTEND INTO CHUKOTKA BY FRI. AN UPPER LOW ALONG THE
KAMCHATKA COAST WILL MOVE TO THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS BY FRI.

SFC...A 976 MB LOW UNDER THE VERTICALLY STACKED HIGH ARCTIC LOW WILL
ALSO MOVE EAST THE NEXT FEW DAYS AND WEAKEN. A COLD FRONT EXTENDING
FROM THE LOW INTO THE SOUTHERN CHUKCHI SEA THU WILL MOVE EAST
ALONG THE ARCTIC COAST. A STRONG RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE IN THE
EASTERN BERING SEA WITH A 1032 MB CENTER NEAR ST GEORGE ISLAND
WILL MOVE TO THE NORTON SOUND AND WEAKEN TO 1020 MB BY 12Z FRI. A
WEAK AND ILL DEFINED THERMAL TROUGH WILL EXTEND FROM THE YUKON AND
INTO EASTERN ALASKA THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

NORTH SLOPE...SOUTHWEST FLOW FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WILL MEAN
CONTINUED VERY WARM TEMPS WITH HIGHS INTO THE 70S FOR MANY INLAND
AREAS AND LITTLE OR NO STRATUS/FOG. A COLD FRONT PUSHING EAST FRI
WILL LIKELY CAUSE SIGNIFICANT COOLING FROM ABOUT BARROW WEST. A
MORE TYPICAL ELY FLOW REGIME LIKELY BY THE WEEKEND WITH A RETURN
TO MORE SEASONABLE TEMPS.

INTERIOR...WARM AND MOSTLY DRY FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS THE
ELONGATED HIGH ALOFT GRADUALLY MOVES INTO NW CANADA.  THE BEST
CHANCE OF CONVECTION WILL BE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST INTERIOR AND ERN
AK RANGE...BUT FOR TODAY WILL EXTEND THAT CHANCE WEST TO NIKOLIA.
TEMPS WILL BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH FRI ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND
EASTERN INTERIOR...BUT NOT NEAR RECORD LEVELS. THE WARMEST TEMPS
WILL BE NEAR THE ALCAN BORDER WITH TEMPS CLOSER TO SEASONABLE
ACROSS THE WRN INTERIOR.

WEST COAST...AREAS OF STRATUS AND FOG EVIDENT ON SAT PICTS EARLY
THIS MORNING ALONG MOST COASTAL AREAS SOUTH OF THE BERING STRAIT
WITH ANOTHER PATCH FROM ABOUT POINT HOPE TO KIVALINA ON THE
CHUKCHI SEA COAST. IN SOME AREAS THE STRATUS HAS PUSHED QUITE FAR
INLAND. A FAIRLY LIGHT WIND REGIME SOUTH OF THE NORTON SOUND WITH
BRISK SW FLOW TO THE NORTH OF ST LAWRENCE ISLAND THE NEXT COUPLE
OF DAYS.

MEDIUM RANGE...THERE CONTINUES TO BE LARGE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE
OPERATIONAL GFS AND ECMWF HOWEVER DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ENSEMBLE
MEANS IS LESS TODAY THAN YESTERDAY WITH THE MOST SIGNIFICANT
DIFFERENCE IN THE STRENGTH OF THE TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN BERING SEA
AND WESTERN AK SUNDAY. THE GFS SOLUTION CONTINUES TO BUILD A 500 MB
RIDGE FURTHER WEST OVER THE WESTERN YUKON AND EASTERN ALASKA WHILE
THE ECMWF DIGS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH FURTHER EAST OVER THE EASTERN
BERING AND WESTERN ALASKA. THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE MODELS IS
LESS WITH TODAY RUNS VS YESTERDAY. OPTED TO NUDGE THE MEDIUM TERM
GRIDS WITH LATEST HPC GUIDANCE WHICH FAVORED AN ENSEMBLE SOLUTION.

COASTAL HAZARD POTENTIAL DAYS 3 AND 4...NONE

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...544 CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES YESTERDAY.
THE BEST CHANCE OF ISOLATED STORMS THE NEXT TWO DAYS WILL BE
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST INTERIOR AND ERN AK RANGE...BUT TODAY WILL
EXTEND THE ISOLATED STORMS WEST TO ABOUT NIKOLAI. OTHERWISE VERY
WARM AND DRY FOR MUCH OF NORTHERN AK THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH MIN
RH'S 15 TO 25 PCT IN MANY INTERIOR VALLEYS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...HIGH FREEZING LEVELS IN THE AK RANGE WILL EXPEDITE SNOW
AND GLACIAL MELT. THIS WILL CAUSE THE SMALLER STREAMS AND CREEKS
FLOWING OUT OT THE AK RANGE TO RUN FAST. THE GLACIALLY FED RIVERS
WILL START TO SEE SOME RISES LATER THIS WEEK INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.CLIMATE...YESTERDAY WAS THE 1ST 80 DEGREE DAY AT THE FAIRBANKS INTL
AIRPORT THIS YEAR...WHICH WAS 10 DAYS LATER THAN AVERAGE. IN A
TYPICAL SUMMER...THERE ARE A TOTAL OF ELEVEN 80 DEGREE DAYS AT
FAIRBANKS. OVER THE YEARS...THERE HAVE BEEN AS FEW AS JUST ONE TO
AS MANY AS THIRTY 80 DEGREE DAYS DURING THE COURSE OF A SUMMER.

&&

.AFG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
