SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
500 PM AKDT TUE OCT 22 2013

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THERE IS AN UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE SOUTHERN BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS
AND AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE ALONG THE WEST COAST OF BRITISH COLUMBIA.
THERE IS A STORM SYSTEM SPINNING UP IN THE SOUTHERN GULF IN A
MOISTURE "STREAM" ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE. THERE IS
A WEAK STORM SYSTEM JUST NORTHWEST OF UNALASKA UNDER THE BERING SEA
UPPER LOW. A MUCH STRONGER STORM SYSTEM IS DEVELOPING SOUTH OF THE
CENTRAL ALEUTIANS IN THE MAIN STORM TRACK...STEERED BY THE BERING
LOW.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
THE NUMERICAL MODELS ARE NOT IN PARTICULARLY GOOD AGREEMENT...EVEN
IN THE SHORT TERM. THE DIFFERENCES ARE WITH TIMING IN A SYSTEM
MOVING NORTH IN THE GULF TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WITH THE ECMWF
A LITTLE SLOWER THAN THE NAM/GFS. THEN THERE ARE LOCATION/STRENGTH
DIFFERENCES WITH A "BOMB" MOVING INTO THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS/BERING
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WITH THE ECMWF/UKMET/GEM BEING FURTHER WEST (AND
STRONGER) WITH THE LOW THAN THE GFS/NAM. FOR MAINLY CONTINUITY
REASONS THE ECMWF WAS GENERALLY FOLLOWED FOR THE FORECAST. SO
ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME CONFIDENCE ON WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN...THERE
IS LESS CONFIDENCE ON WHEN/HOW STRONG THE ACTUAL WEATHER IS.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...
THE GULF WEATHER SYSTEM WILL MOVE NORTH TONIGHT AND BEGIN TO AFFECT
THE GULF COAST BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THE MODELS DIFFER ON THE
TIMING OF THIS SYSTEM...BUT AGREE THAT THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE
MOSTLY EAST OF VALDEZ AND GLENNALLEN. THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO
CANADA BY THURSDAY MORNING. OTHERWISE...SOUTHERN ALASKA WILL BE
GENERALLY DRY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS AN EXTENSION OF THE THE
BRITISH COLUMBIA RIDGE NOSES INTO THE AREA.

THE LOW JUST NORTHWEST OF UNALASKA WILL SLOWLY SPIN EASTWARD TONIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE LOW SPINNING UP SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS
WILL "BOMB OUT" LATE WEDNESDAY AS IT MOVES INTO THE EASTERN
ALEUTIANS AND ALASKA PENINSULA. SIGNIFICANT WINDS AND DECENT RAIN
RATES ARE EXPECTED WITH THIS POWERFUL SYSTEM. THE SURFACE LOW WILL
BOTTOM OUT IN THE MID TO UPPER 950'S (MB) EARLY THURSDAY MORNING AS
IT CROSSES INTO THE BERING SEA. THE PRECIPITATION AND WINDS WILL
SPREAD INTO SOUTHWEST ALASKA LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AND INTO SOUTH CENTRAL
THURSDAY MORNING/AFTERNOON AS THE SURFACE FRONT RACES AHEAD OF THE
LOW...WHICH WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTH AND FILL...BUT REMAIN IN THE
EASTERN BERING SEA THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THE STRONGEST WINDS
WILL BE IN THE USUAL AREAS...THROUGH PASSES/CHANNELED TERRAIN...OVER
THE MARINE AREAS...AND THROUGH TURNAGAIN ARM/HIGHER ELEVATIONS.
ALTHOUGH RAIN RATES WILL BE FAIRLY HIGH...THE RAPID MOVEMENT OF THE
FRONT WILL LIMIT TOTAL AMOUNTS...AND MOST PRECIPITATION WILL FALL ON
WINDWARD AREAS NEAR THE PACIFIC COAST.

.AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY
PUBLIC...NONE.
MARINE...STORM WARNING 155 165 172 179 180.
         GALE WARNING 132 138 150 160 170 171 173 174 175 176
                     177 181 185.
FIRE WEATHER...NONE.
