SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
436 AM AKST FRI NOV 14 2014

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

RIDGING THAT STRETCHES FROM THE PANHANDLE AND YUKON TERRITORY INTO
THE CENTRAL INTERIOR CONTINUES TO BRING MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES TO
MUCH OF THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND. SUBSIDENCE UNDER THIS RIDGE IS
PRODUCING AREAS OF FOG AND LOW STRATUS TO LOW LYING AREAS THIS
MORNING...ESPECIALLY IN THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY. TO THE WEST OF THIS
RIDGE...A NORTH PACIFIC LOW CENTERED SOUTH OF DUTCH HARBOR IS
BRINGING RAINFALL FROM THE AKPENN TO THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS AND
EASTERN ALEUTIANS. A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THIS LOW AND
THE MAINLAND RIDGE IS ALSO CONTINUING TO PRODUCE GUSTY EASTERLY
WINDS FROM THE WESTERN GULF TO THE EASTERN BERING...INCLUDING MOST
OF BRISTOL BAY. A FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW CENTERED OVER THE
KAMCHATKA PENINSULA CAN BE SEEN ENTERING THIS WESTERN
ALEUTIANS...BRINGING RAIN AND GUSTY SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS TO THE
SHEMYA AREA. THIS SYSTEM WILL ABSORB THE LOW NEAR DUTCH HARBOR
OVER THE NEXT 2 DAYS...BECOMING THE PRIMARY WEATHER MAKER IN THE
BERING THROUGH THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

THE MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD SYNOPTIC AGREEMENT INTO SUNDAY WHEN THEY
BEGIN TO HAVE SOME FAIRLY MINOR DISAGREEMENTS WITH BOTH A WESTERN
ALEUTIAN AND GULF LOW. THE NAM WAS PRIMARILY USED FOR WINDS OVER
THE GULF AND THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND THROUGH SATURDAY...WHILE THE
GFS WAS PREFERRED OVER THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS. THE LARGEST
MODEL DISCREPANCIES EXIST IN THE TIMING AND INTENSITY OF A LOW
APPROACHING THE SOUTHERN GULF ON SUNDAY MORNING. THE NAM AND EC
ARE BOTH MUCH WEAKER WITH THIS LOW AND WERE THE PREFERRED SOLUTIONS
FOR THE MORNING PACKAGE. THE GFS ON THE OTHER HAND HAS BEEN
CONSISTENTLY STRONGER WITH THIS LOW...AND PREVIOUS RUNS HAD BEEN
MUCH SLOWER IN BRINGING IT INTO THE GULF ON SUNDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...

THE DRIER PATTERN ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE RESIDES OVER THE REGION.
PATCHY FOG IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION WITH A
STRONG SURFACE INVERSION DEVELOPING IN RESPONSE TO WELL ABOVE
AVERAGE 925 MB AND 850 MB TEMPERATURES. SOME AREA LAKES AS WELL AS
THE COPPER RIVER BASIN COULD SEE THICKER FOG REDUCING VISIBILITIES
TO ONE MILE OR LESS AT TIMES. WHILE THE FOG WILL BURN OFF IN MOST
LOCATIONS BY THE LATE MORNING...THE COPPER RIVER BASIN WILL HAVE A
TOUGH TIME MIXING OUT THE FOG AND LIKELY SEE ONLY MARGINAL
IMPROVEMENT DURING THE DAY. PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL BE
GENERALLY CONFINED TO KODIAK ISLAND AS A WEAK DEFORMATION BAND
AND WARM CONVEYOR BELT CONTINUES TO USHER IN MOISTURE FROM THE
NORTH PACIFIC. THE REMAINDER OF THE MAINLAND WILL REMAIN
DRY...WITH PRECIPITATION CHANCES BEGINNING TO INCREASE ALONG THE
NORTHERN GULF COAST BY LATE THIS WEEKEND AS AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE MOVES FROM THE NORTH PACIFIC INTO THE GULF OF ALASKA.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...

THE GUSTY EASTERLY WINDS CURRENTLY OVER BRISTOL BAY WILL DIMINISH
BRIEFLY THIS EVENING...ONLY THE PICK UP AGAIN BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
THIS WILL OCCUR AS WEAK WAVE APPROACHES KODIAK ISLAND...ONCE AGAIN
INCREASING THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WITH CONTINUED RIDGING OVER THE
MAINLAND. AHEAD OF THIS WAVE...RAIN WILL REDEVELOP MAINLY OVER THE
SOUTHWEST COAST AND AHKLUN MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON WHEN A WEAK
SHORTWAVE WILL PASS OVERHEAD. THESE WINDS THEN LOOK TO DIMINISH
FOR GOOD ON SUNDAY ONCE A NORTH PACIFIC LOW MOVES INTO THE
SOUTHERN GULF...RELAXING THE PRESSURE GRADIENT AS THE RIDGING
RETREATS INTO THE YUKON. PERIODS OF RAINFALL ON THE OTHER HAND
WILL CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY AS A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES ASSOCIATED
WITH THE NORTH PACIFIC LOW MOVE THROUGH.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...

GALE FORCE WINDS IN THE DUTCH HARBOR AREA WILL BEGIN TO DIMINISH
LATER THIS MORNING AS THE NORTH PACIFIC LOW VERY SLOWLY FILLS TO
THE SOUTH. SMALL CRAFT WINDS WILL HOWEVER CONTINUE IN THIS AREA INTO
SATURDAY WHEN WINDS THROUGHOUT THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS WILL
DIMINISH. OVER THE WESTERN BERING/ALEUTIANS....A SHARP GALE FORCE
FRONT WILL QUICKLY MOVE THROUGH BY LATE THIS MORNING WHEN WINDS
WILL SWITCH FAIRLY RAPIDLY TO WESTERLY AND DIMINISH BEHIND THE
FRONT. RAIN SHOWERS WILL THEN CONTINUE IN MOST AREAS WITH
RELATIVELY LIGHT WINDS INTO SUNDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (DAYS 3 THROUGH 7)...

A HIGH LATITUDE BLOCKING PATTERN WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE END OF
THE UPCOMING WEEK AS A DOMINANT HIGH PRESSURE RESIDES OVER THE
ALASKA MAINLAND AND A COMPLEX LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM RESIDES OVER THE
BERING SEA. WITH THE COMPLEX LOW OVER THE BERING SEA...ELEVATED
RAIN CHANCES (MIXED WITH SNOW OVER THE WESTERN 1/3 BERING SEA) WILL
PERSIST THROUGH THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. BY LATE SUNDAY AND INTO
MONDAY...A 500 MB SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE REFLECTION
WILL MOVE INTO THE NORTHERN GULF OF ALASKA AND INCREASE RAIN
CHANCES ALONG THE NORTHERN GULF COAST AND IMMEDIATE INLAND AREAS.
THIS WILL TEMPORARILY BRING MINOR COLD AIR ADVECTION TO
SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA AS THE FEED OF WARMER AIR FROM THE NORTH
PACIFIC IS SHUT OFF. BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON...A LOW FROM THEN NORTH
PACIFIC WILL MOVE INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF OF ALASKA AND ALLOW WARM
AIR ADVECTION FROM THE NORTH PACIFIC TO RESUME. THE NET RESULT
WILL ONCE AGAIN BE WARMER SURFACE AND 850 MB TEMPERATURES. AS THE
LOW DECAYS TOWARD THE END OF NEXT WEEK...THE FEED OF WARM AIR FROM
THE NORTH PACIFIC WILL ONCE AGAIN SHUT DOWN AND ALLOW FOR WEAK
COLD AIR ADVECTION. THIS WILL LEAD TO TEMPERATURES TRENDING A BIT
COOLER BY LATE NEXT WEEK. DURING THIS PERIOD...THE DOMINANT HIGH
PRESSURE WILL SHIFT FURTHER NORTH OVER THE INTERIOR OF ALASKA AND
THE ARCTIC. HOWEVER...THE BLOCKING PATTERN WILL CONTINUE AND NO
REAL PATTERN SHIFT IS SEEN AT THIS TIME.
