What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this gale warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this gale warning went out at Dec 2, 5:00 AM AKST, 11 hours earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 2, 5:00 AM AKST, 11 hours before
SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK 500 AM AKST MON DEC 2 2013 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... THE OMEGA BLOCK CURRENTLY CENTERED OVER THE WESTERN INTERIOR CONTINUES TO SLOWLY SLIDE TO THE EAST EARLY THIS MORNING. TO THE WEST OF THIS RIDGE...A WEAKENING LOW IN THE EXTREME WESTERN BERING IS ALLOWING MID TO HIGH LEVEL CLOUD COVER TO SPILL OVER THE WEST COAST TO THE WESTERN CONFINES OF THE RIDGE. THE NEXT ALEUTIAN LOW IS DEVELOPING WELL SOUTH OF ADAK...BUT IS ALREADY NEARLY BRINGING THE NEXT ROUND OF RAIN AND GUSTY SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS TO THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS AND AKPENN. THIS SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE MOVING NORTH TODAY AND MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL BERING BY MID WEEK. .MODEL DISCUSSION... THE MODELS REMAIN IN EXCELLENT OVERALL SYNOPTIC AGREEMENT INTO TUESDAY WHEN THEY BEGIN TO HAVE DISAGREEMENT WITH HOW QUICKLY TO DEVELOP THE PACIFIC LOW AS IT MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL BERING. THE GFS/EC ARE IN AGREEMENT THAT THIS LOW WILL FURTHER INTENSIFY JUST WEST OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS...WHILE THE NAM IS MUCH WEAKER WITH THIS SYSTEM AND WAS TREATED AS AN OUTLIER. THE MODELS HAVE ALSO BACKED OFF ON PRECIP CHANCES FOR SOUTHCENTRAL LATE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY MORNING SINCE YESTERDAY...AND ARE NOW SHOWING CHANCES FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. THIS APPEARS TO BE DUE TO TENDENCY IN THE MODELS TO BREAK DOWN THE RIDGE TOO QUICKLY...SO MUCH OF SOUTHCENTRAL WOULD ONLY SEE INCREASED CLOUD COVER WITH AN OUTSIDE CHANCE OF PRECIP CONFINED MAINLY TO COASTAL LOCATIONS LATER IN THE WEEK. .SHORT TERM FORECAST... SOUTHCENTRAL...NOW THAT GAP WINDS ALONG THE GULF COAST HAVE DISSIPATED...THE FORECAST FOCUS IN THE EARLY TERM SHIFTS TO THE FOG POSSIBILITY ALONG COOK INLET. THE 12Z ANCHORAGE SOUNDING INDICATES THAT THE INVERSION HAS STRENGTHENED SO MUCH THAT THERE IS NOW A 5000 FT LAYER ABOVE FREEZING STARTING ABOVE 2300 FT...WHILE TEMPERATURES IN THE ANCHORAGE BOWL ARE NEAR ZERO. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL BE A LIMITING FACTOR FOR THE FORMATION OF WIDESPREAD FOG...BUT PATCHY FOG WITH AREAS OF LOW CLOUDS ALONG THE INLET SHOULD BE EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT TWO MORNINGS. THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT INCREASE IN CLOUD COVER ON WEDNESDAY FROM THE PACIFIC LOW AS IT MOVES INTO THE BERING SEA WHICH WILL HELP BRING A SLIGHT WARM UP TO THE AREA AND END THE FOG POTENTIAL. SOUTHWEST ALASKA/BERING SEA/ALEUTIAN CHAIN...A LOW IN THE NORTH PACIFIC WILL MOVE NORTHWARD INTO THE CENTRAL BERING TUE NIGHT THROUGH THU...WHILE HIGH PRESSURE BECOMES MORE ELONGATED OVER THE MAINLAND AND EASTERN PACIFIC. PRECIPITATION WILL ACCOMPANY THE LOW...HOWEVER INLAND AREAS OF THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND MAY VERY WELL NOT SEE MUCH AT ALL. A SECOND LOW WILL FOLLOW BEHIND ON WEDNESDAY...BRINGING ANOTHER ROUND OF PRECIPITATION TO THE REGION. THESE ARE BOTH RELATIVELY WEAK LOWS...SO WINDS WILL GENERALLY REMAIN BELOW GALE FORCE EVERYWHERE EXCEPT SOUTH OF THE ALASKA PENINSULA. .LONG TERM FORECAST...AS THE UPPER RIDGE MOVES OFF TO THE EAST...TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE ACROSS THE MAINLAND. MODELS DIVERGE FOR THIS WEEKEND...HOWEVER IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE SOME CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION ESPECIALLY WEST OF THE COOK INLET REGION FOR THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. .AER/ALU...WATCH/WARNING SUMMARY PUBLIC...NONE MARINE...GALE 150 155 180 FIRE WEATHER...NONE KOCHEVAR/SCHRECK DEC 13
