What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this storm 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 storm warning went out at Oct 7, 5:15 AM AKDT, 10 hours 37 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Oct 7, 5:15 AM AKDT, 10 hours 37 minutes before

SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
515 AM AKDT TUE OCT 7 2014

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THE LONGWAVE TROUGH WHICH HAS BEEN ENTRENCHED OVER MAINLAND ALASKA
FOR THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS HAS SHIFTED SLIGHTLY EASTWARD THIS
MORNING...WITH THE TROUGH AXIS NOW EXTENDING SOUTH-SOUTHWEST FROM
THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE ALCAN BORDER THROUGH EASTERN PRINCE
WILLIAM SOUND AND INTO THE CENTRAL GULF. THIS HAS ALLOWED NORTHWEST
FLOW TO TAKE HOLD ACROSS MUCH OF THE MAINLAND...RESULTING IN
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND BRISK NORTHERLY WINDS FROM THE COOK INLET
AND MAT-SU REGIONS TO THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND. CLOUDIER SKIES AND A
FEW SHOWERS PERSIST OVER THE EASTERN COPPER RIVER BASIN AND
EASTERN PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND AS A WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCE AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW DRIFT EASTWARD ALONG THE NORTHEASTERN GULF
COAST. MEANWHILE...A SURFACE LOW APPROXIMATELY 300 MILES SOUTH OF
AMCHITKA IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING ABSORBED BY THE REMNANTS OF
TYPHOON PHANFONE...WITH THAT SYSTEM SET TO UNDERGO RAPID
INTENSIFICATION OVER THE NEXT 24 TO 48 HOURS AS IT TRACKS SOUTH OF
THE ALEUTIANS. GALE FORCE EASTERLY WINDS ENCOMPASS MUCH OF THE
BERING BETWEEN THIS FEATURE TO THE SOUTH AND HIGH PRESSURE TO THE
NORTH...WITH A STALLED FRONT OVER THE SOUTHERN BERING SPREADING
RAIN ACROSS THE ALEUTIANS.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS REMAIN IN GENERALLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH ABOUT MIDWEEK AS
THE MAINLAND REMAINS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE BROAD UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH. LARGER DIFFERENCES BEGIN TO ARISE BY LATE WEDNESDAY AS THE
STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS TRACKS EASTWARD.
THE AMERICAN MODELS HAVE CONSISTENTLY BEEN SLOWER/FARTHER WEST
COMPARED TO THE EC OVER THE PAST SEVERAL RUNS. PREFERRED THE
FASTER/FARTHER EAST EC SOLUTION FOR THE FORECAST AS IT HAS SHOWN
BETTER AGREEMENT WITH ENSEMBLE MEANS. MODEL AGREEMENT HAS IMPROVED
REGARDING THE TIMING OF THE FRONT INTO THE GULF AS IT APPROACHES
THE SOUTHERN GULF WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THEN REACHES THE COAST BY
LATE THURSDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...

SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...
PLEASANT CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK AS
CONTINUED NORTHWEST FLOW YIELDS CLEAR SKIES AND NORTHERLY
WINDS...WITH THE LACK OF CLOUD COVER ALLOWING NIGHTTIME LOWS TO
DIP DOWN INTO THE UPPER TEENS TO LOW 20S THE NEXT COUPLE NIGHTS.
MORE CLOUDS WILL START TO MOVE IN LATER ON WEDNESDAY AS A CLOSED
UPPER LOW DROPS DOWN FROM THE ARCTIC COAST...WITH A COUPLE SHOWERS
POSSIBLE MAINLY ALONG THE GULF COAST. THE STRONG FRONT ASSOCIATED
WITH THE DEEP LOW TRACKING SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS WILL THEN ENTER
THE SOUTHERN GULF WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND SPREAD RAIN OVER KODIAK
ISLAND BEFORE REACHING THE GULF COAST LATE THURSDAY...BRINGING
STRONG GAP WINDS AND POTENTIALLY HEAVY RAIN TO AREAS ALONG THE
COAST AND SHOWERS INLAND. IT DOES APPEAR AT THIS TIME THAT
PRECIPITATION TYPE WILL BE PREDOMINANTLY RAIN AS MUCH WARMER AIR
ACCOMPANIES THE ARRIVAL OF THIS SYSTEM...ALTHOUGH FROZEN
PRECIPITATION REMAINS A POSSIBILITY IN LOCATIONS WHERE COLDER AIR
TENDS TO LINGER AT THE SURFACE SUCH AS THE COPPER RIVER BASIN.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...
MUCH LIKE SOUTHCENTRAL AK...THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND WILL SEE MORE
OF THE SAME OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH CLEAR SKIES AND GUSTY WINDS
SUPPORTED BY DRY NORTHERLY FLOW. COASTAL PORTIONS OF BRISTOL BAY
WILL HAVE A CHANCE FOR SOME RAIN LATER THURSDAY AS THE FRONT
MOVES NORTHWARD INTO THE GULF.

BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS...
EASTERLY GALE FORCE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT A WIDE SWATH OF
THE BERING THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEK AS A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT
REMAINS IN PLACE BETWEEN THE STRONG LOW TO THE SOUTH AND HIGH
PRESSURE OVER THE BERING STRAIT. RAIN WILL REMAIN IN THE FORECAST
ACROSS THE ALEUTIANS AS THE FRONT OVER THE SOUTHERN BERING
GRADUALLY WEAKENS IN PLACE THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND THE LOW TRACKS
SOUTH OF THE CHAIN.

.LONG TERM FORECAST...
THE EXTENDED PERIOD IS DOMINATED BY AN AMPLIFIED 500 MB TROUGH THAT
CONTINUES TO SLOWLY AMPLIFY THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD. THIS IS DUE IN
LARGE PART TO A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES ORIGINATING
OVER SIBERIA AND THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA THAT TRAVERSE THE
WESTERN EDGE OF THE TROUGH. AS THESE DISTURBANCES PASS THROUGH THE
APEX OF THE TROUGH...THE TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY DIG
SOUTHWARD. THIS IS INDICATIVE TO AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS
THE BERING SEA AND ALASKA MAINLAND AS THESE DISTURBANCES WILL
PROVIDE ENOUGH UPPER LEVEL ENERGY TO KEEP PRECIPITATION IN THE
FORECAST. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE THAT WAS ONCE LOCATED OVER THE
WESTERN ARCTIC AND BERING STRAIT WILL HAVE BECOME CUT OFF FROM THE
MEAN FLOW BY FRIDAY AND SLOWLY WEAKEN OVER THE NORTHERN AND
WESTERN BERING SEA THROUGH SATURDAY. AT THIS POINT...DETERMINISTIC
GUIDANCE IS PICKING UP ON A CLOSED LOW DROPPING SOUTH FROM
KAMCHATKA INTO THE NORTH PACIFIC ON SATURDAY WHICH RESULTS IN SOME
LONGWAVE RIDGING OVER THE FAR WESTERN BERING SEA THAT FLATTENS OUT
BY MONDAY MORNING. THE SURFACE/UPPER LEVEL REMNANTS OF THE
PHASING FROM PHANFONE AND A NORTH PACIFIC LOW WILL PUSH INTO THE
GULF FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND SLOWLY WEAKEN THROUGH MONDAY AS IT
BECOMES NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE NORTHERN GULF COAST.

FOR SOUTHWEST ALASKA...PRECIPITATION WILL NOT SPREAD AS FAR INLAND
AS WAS EXPECTED THE PREVIOUS DAYS AS THE RESULTANT LOW FROM THE
PHASING OF PHANFONE AND A NORTH PACIFIC LOW PASSES FURTHER SOUTH
THAN ORIGINALLY EXPECTED. PRECIPITATION WILL LIKELY BE SEEN ALONG
THE ALASKA PENINSULA AND ALASKA RANGE ON FRIDAY AS THE LOW PUSHES
INTO THE GULF...WITH A MORE SHOWERY REGIME BRINGING PRECIPITATION
CHANCES TO THE REST OF SOUTHWEST ALASKA BY SATURDAY AND LINGERING
THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY. COLDER AIR WILL FILTER IN BEHIND THE LOW
ON FRIDAY...WHICH SHOULD KEEP THE PRECIPITATION TYPE PREDOMINATELY
SNOW...BUT SOME LOCATIONS (ESPECIALLY ALONG THE ALASKA PENINSULA)
COULD SEE SOME OF THE SHOWERS MIXING WITH RAIN IN THE AFTERNOON
HOURS.

FOR SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...AS THE AFOREMENTIONED LOW MOVES INTO THE
GULF OF ALASKA ON FRIDAY...THE NORTHERN GULF COAST WILL GET SLAMMED
BY A STRONG WARM FRONT. THIS WILL BRING COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF
RAINFALL TO THE NORTH GULF COAST AS WELL AS A PERIOD OF STRONG
WINDS. THE RAINFALL WILL LIKELY LINGER ALONG THE GULF COAST BEYOND
MONDAY AS THE LOW SLOWLY WEAKENS AND SPINS OVER THE NORTHERN
GULF. FURTHER INLAND WILL BE MUCH DRIER BUT WILL STILL SEE DECENT
CHANCES FOR SNOW AND/OR RAIN. THE LOW IN THE GULF WILL ADVECT
WARMER AIR INTO SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...WITH 850 MB TEMPERATURES
REACHING +3 TO +6 BY LATE FRIDAY/EARLY SATURDAY OVER PARTS OF
ANCHORAGE...THE COPPER RIVER BASIN AND PARTS OF THE MAT-SU
VALLEY. WHILE PRECIPITATION MAY START OFF AS SNOW OR A RAIN/SNOW
MIX OVER THESE AREAS...IT WILL LIKELY TRANSITION TO ALL RAIN AS
TEMPERATURES ALOFT WARM. THE EXCEPTION OF COURSE WOULD BE ACROSS
ELEVATED LOCATIONS.
