SOUTHEAST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JUNEAU AK
604 AM AKDT MON SEP 24 2012
.SHORT TERM...SHOWERS LEFT OVER FROM YESTERDAY'S FRONT HAVE BEEN
HEAVY AT TIMES OVER NIGHT, THOUGH NOT HEAVY ENOUGH OR LONG ENOUGH
TO CAUSE ANY HYDROLOGY CONCERNS. SATELLITE IMAGERY CLOUD TOP
TEMPERATURES FROM WHERE THE HEAVY SHOWERS HAVE BEEN NOT
PARTICULARLY COLD NOR IS THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE IN SOUNDINGS DATA
OR MODEL FIELDS. CONSEQUENTLY, DO NOT FEEL THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
VERY LIKELY TODAY.
A POST FRONTAL SHORT WAVE IS WELL DEPICTED IN MODEL FIELDS AND
SHOWS UP CLEARLY IN SATELLITE IMAGERY EARLY THIS MORNING BETWEEN
140W AND THE OUTER COAST. THIS FEATURE WILL BE THE CATALYST FOR
SHOWER ACTIVITY DOWN TO CAPE OMMANEY AND FREDERICK SOUND TODAY.
BELIEVE THE HEAVIEST SHOWERS WILL BE NORTH OF CAPE SPENCER, BUT
THE TREND THROUGH THE DAY WILL BE FOR THEM TO DIMINISH. A WEATHER
FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST TONIGHT, SO SCATTERED TO
ISOLATED SHOWERS WILL GIVE WAY TO A CHANCE OF RAIN WEST OF CAPE
FAIRWEATHER AND A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR THE NORTHERN THIRD OF THE
PANHANDLE. WINDS IN ADVANCE OF THE FRONT WILL PICK UP TO SMALL
CRAFT INTENSITY OVER THE COASTAL MARINE ZONES NORTH OF CAPE
SPENCER BY LATE TONIGHT. HAVE GALE FORCE WINDS SOUTHEASTERLIES
OVER THE WESTERN PORTION OF OFFSHORE MARINE ZONE 310 AS WELL. NO
STRONG RESPONSE OVER THE INNER CHANNELS THROUGH THE SHORT RANGE
FORECAST WITH 20 KTS OVER THE WESTERN PORTION OF ICY STRAIGHT AND
CROSS SOUND LATE TONIGHT.
MAIN FORECAST CONCERN OVERNIGHT HAS BEEN LOW CLOUDS AND FOG.
VISIBILITY AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS, MOSTLY OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF
THE PANHANDLE, HAVE BEEN DOWN TO ONE QUARTER OF A MILE AT TIMES
OVERNIGHT. ENHANCED SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATING THAT FOG IS
LOCALLY DENSE BUT NOT WIDE SPREAD. DECIDED TO ISSUE A DENSE FOG
ADVISORY FOR PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PANHANDLE AND
CHARACTERIZED THE FOG AS PATCHY AND DENSE. RAN THIS ADVISORY OUT
TILL 10 AM, WHICH SHOULD GIVE DAY SHIFT PLENTY OF TIME TO
EVALUATE THE SITUATION. WITH REGARD TO PANHANDLE AIRPORTS, FLIGHT
OPERATIONS WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY BE IMPACTED THROUGH MID MORNING
TODAY. KETCHIKAN TAF DOWN TO MINIMUMS AT TIMES. PETERSBURG TAF
BELOW MINIMUMS AT TIMES THROUGH ABOUT 8 AM. NO DOUBT THERE WILL
BE OTHER PANHANDLE AERODROMES NOT COVERED BY TAFS THAT WILL BE AT
OR BELOW MINIMUMS FOR MUCH OF THE MORNING.
USED NAM FOR UPDATES TO PRESSURE AND WIND. BLENDED GFS, ECMWF,
GEM AND OFFICIAL FOR POP AND QPF FIELDS. ADJUSTED TEMPS WITH SREF
AND GFS40. FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS ABOVE AVERAGE.
.LONG TERM...THE GULF WILL CONTINUE TO BE VERY ACTIVE THROUGH THE
MID RANGE WITH TWO BIG WEATHER FRONT MOVING OVER THE GULF AND SE
AK. THE FIRST WILL MOVE OVER THE AREA ON TUE/TUE NIGHT AND THEN
ANOTHER 24HRS LATER WED/WED NIGHT. THERE IS GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT
AND RUN TO RUN CONSTANCY HAS BEEN VERY GOOD FROM TUE THROUGH FRI.
INTO THE WEEKEND THE ENSEMBLES/DETERMINISTIC MODELS ARE INDICATING
THAT ANOTHER DEVELOPING WAVE WILL DRIFT OUT OF THE NORTH PACIFIC
AND INTO THE EASTERN GULF GULF AND OVER SE AK LATE SAT INTO SUNDAY.
FOR THE MOST PART THERE IS ABOVE AVERAGE FORECASTER CONFIDENCE IN
THE MID RANGE AND ABOUT AVERAGE CONFIDENCE LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND.
THE FIRST BIG FRONT...AT THE START OF THE LONG RANGE PERIOD A
STRONG WEATHER FRONT PRODUCING GALE FORCE WINDS WILL BE EXTENDING
ACROSS THE CENTRAL GULF BACK TO THE NW. THIS FRONT WILL MOVE NE
THROUGH THE NEXT 18HRS AND SPREAD STORM FORCE WINDS OVER THE
NORTHERN GULF DUE A BARRIER JET AND THEN GALES OVER THE REST OF
THE GULF. THE YAKUTAT AREA WILL SEE RAIN INCREASING THROUGH THE
DAY AND BY THE LATE AFTERNOON THE RAIN WILL BE HEAVY AT TIMES
WHILE THE REST OF THE NORTHERN INNER CHANNELS WILL SEE THE RAIN
JUST GETTING GOING. WITH THE PARENT LOW NEAR PWS MOST OF THE
STRONGEST WINDS WILL REMAIN ON THE OUTER COAST WITH SOME LAND
AREAS SEEING HIGH GUSTS. THE FRONT WILL MOVE OVER THE INNER
CHANNELS THROUGH TUE NIGHT AND WILL INCREASE THE WINDS OVER
CLARENCE STRAIT TO GALES ALONG WITH EASTERLY WINDS NEAR CROSS
SOUND. THE REST OF THE INNER CHANNELS WILL SEE MAINLY 20 KT FROM
THE SOUTH BUT NORTHERN LYNN WILL SEE MIN SMALL CRAFT.
A VERY STRONG SHORTWAVE TROF WILL ROTATE AROUND THE PARENT UPPER
LOW JUST SOUTH OF THE CHAIN WILL BECOME THE DOMINATE FEATURE AND
DEVELOP A VERY STRONG 950-960MB LOW SOUTH OF KODIAK BY WED
AFTERNOON. THIS LOW WILL SEND A STORM FORCE FRONT ACROSS THE GULF
AND OVER THE FORECAST AREA WED NIGHT. THE INNER CHANNELS WILL SEE
STRONGER WINDS OVER THE INNER CHANNELS WITH THIS FRONT AS A WEAK
TRIPLE POINT LOW/TROF WILL FORM AND THE INNER CHANNELS WILL SEE
SOLID SMALL CRAFT WINDS WITH MAX GALES OVER CLARENCE STRAIT AND
GALES COMING OUT OF CROSS SOUND. THE NORTHERN INNER CHANNELS WILL
SEE A WEAK NORTHERLY WINDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT BUT ONCE THE FRONT
LIFTS OVER THE AREA AND A RIDGE BUILDS IN BEHIND THE FRONT A
STRONG SOUTHERLY PUSH WILL MOVE OVER THE THE NORTHERN THIRD TO
INCREASE WINDS TO STRONG WINDS OVER LAND AND MAX SMALL CRAFT/GALES
OVER THE LYNN. STORM FORCE WINDS WILL DEVELOP OVER THE NORTHERN GULF BY
WED AFTERNOON WITH GALES OVER THE REST OF THE EASTERN GULF BY THE
EVENING. THERE WILL SOME STRONG WIND GUSTS OVER THE COASTAL AREAS
IN THE LATE AFTERNOON ON WED WITH SOME WINDY CONDITIONS OVER THE
INNER CHANNELS THROUGH WED NIGHT. THE RAIN WILL HEAVY AT TIMES
THROUGH WED WITH AREAS PICKING UP 2 TO 4 INCHES. RIVER MAY GET TO
BANKFULL BUT AT THIS TIME DO NOT EXPECT MANY HYDRO ISSUES DUE TO
THE SPEED OF THE FRONT.
A RIDGE WILL PERSIST OVER THE INNER CHANNELS THROUGH THE REST OF
THE WEEK AND SOUTHERLY WINDS FROM 20 TO 30 KT WILL PERSIST. ALONG
WITH SHOWERS BEING LIKELY DUE TO ONSHORE FLOW AND UPPER LEVEL TROF
DRIFTING OVER THE AREA.
USED MAINLY THE NAM FOR DAY TWO AND THEN A GFS/EC ON DAY 3 AND 4.
FOR THE EXTENDED THERE WAS NOT ANY BIG CHANGES AS HPC WAS USED.
