SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
411 PM AKDT THU SEP 10 2015

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THERE IS A DOUBLE CENTERED UPPER LOW OVER THE AREA...WITH ONE
CENTER NEAR DILLINGHAM AND THE OTHER EAST OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS.
THERE IS A SURFACE LOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE FIRST LOW...CENTERED
JUST TO ITS SOUTH NEAR KING SALMON. SHOWERS CONTINUE OVER SOUTHERN
ALASKA IN A FAIRLY MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE. THE MAIN
MOISTURE BAND IS GENERALLY TO THE EAST OF THE AREA...BUT A MOIST
FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW IN THE NORTHEAST GULF IS SPREADING
ALONG THE COAST FROM PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND EAST. THERE IS A RIDGE
OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN BERING SEA WITH NORTHWESTERLY
FLOW OVER MOST OF THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
THE NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THE SHORT TERM
PORTION OF THE FORECAST. THIS LEADS TO SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN NORMAL
FORECAST CONFIDENCE...OFFSET A BIT BY THE SHOWERY NATURE OF THE
PATTERN.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH THIS EVENING IN MOST AREAS. THE
EXCEPTION IS THE COPPER RIVER BASIN...WHICH WILL EXPERIENCE
ANOTHER SURGE WITH A PASSAGE OF A SECONDARY TROUGH ON FRIDAY.
SHOWERS WILL BE THE GENERAL RULE ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION THROUGH
FRIDAY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...THOUGH THE MOIST
FRONT IN THE NORTHEAST GULF WILL BRING MORE STRATIFORM RAIN TO THE
GULF COAST. THE TWIN UPPER LOW THAT HAS BEEN SITTING OVER
SOUTHWEST ALASKA/EASTERN BERING WILL TRANSITION INTO AN OPEN WAVE
AND SLIDE ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA AND THE NORTHERN GULF FRIDAY
AS THE WESTERN BERING RIDGE FLATTENS AND ALLOWS MORE WESTERLY FLOW
ALOFT TO PUSH ACROSS THE BERING AND INTO SOUTHERN ALASKA. A SHARP
TROUGH ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TRANSITION WILL CROSS SOUTH CENTRAL
DURING THE DAY SATURDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
THE LOW THAT HAS MOVED INLAND THIS MORNING OVER THE BRISTOL BAY
REGION WILL SLOWLY BEGIN TO BE ABSORBED INTO A LARGER LOW CENTERED
OVER INTERIOR ALASKA THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON...LEAVING A TROUGH
OF LOW PRESSURE IN ITS PLACE. THIS WILL KEEP MOSTLY NORTHWEST FLOW
OVER THE REGION...WHICH WILL FAVOR SHOWERY CONDITIONS ALONG THE
NORTHWEST FACING SLOPES OF THE KILBUCK/AHKLUN MOUNTAINS AND THE
ALASKA AND ALEUTIAN RANGES THROUGH LATE FRIDAY NIGHT. CONDITIONS
WILL BEGIN TO CHANGE EARLY SATURDAY MORNING AS THE FLOW ALOFT
BEGINS TO SHIFT FROM NORTHWESTERLY TO SOUTHWESTERLY AS THE EXTRA-
TROPICAL REMNANTS OF FORMER TYPHOON KILO BEGIN TO MOVE INTO THE
SEA OF OKHOTSK. AS THE RIDGE FLATTENS OUT...A SHORT-WAVE MOVING
ALONG THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO BRING ANOTHER
ROUND OF SHOWERS TO THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA ON SATURDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
WITH THE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE BERING SEA
THROUGH FRIDAY...WINDS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED OVER MOST OF THE
REGION WITH A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT AS THE LOW OVER SOUTHWEST
ALASKA MOVES INLAND. GENERALLY NORTHWEST WINDS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW
GALE FORCE. THE LONG FETCH WILL KEEP SEAS ELEVATED THROUGH THE
PERIOD. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST FRIDAY EVENING
AS THE EXTRA-TROPICAL REMNANTS OF FORMER TYPHOON KILO MOVE INTO
THE SEA OF OKHOTSK AND THEN ACROSS THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA AND
INTO THE FAR WESTERN BERING LATE SATURDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (DAYS 3 THROUGH 7)...
A WEAKENING LOW OVER THE NORTH GULF COAST LATE SATURDAY WILL BRING
A BRIEF PERIOD OF OUTFLOW WINDS THE GULF COAST WITH RAIN TO MUCH
OF SOUTHCENTRAL INTO SUNDAY WHEN IT WILL BEGIN TO DISSIPATE. OVER
THE SOUTHWEST COAST...A WEAK FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL BRING WIDESPREAD
RAIN TO THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND...WHICH WILL QUICKLY BECOME
INVIGORATED ON SUNDAY BY THE APPROACHING REMNANTS OF TYPHOON KILO
THAT WILL BE MOVING FROM THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA INTO THE BERING
SEA. THIS SYSTEM WILL THEN BECOME THE FOCAL POINT FOR THE WEATHER
THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST AREA INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. WHILE THE
CENTRAL PRESSURE OF THIS SYSTEM WILL BE UNIMPRESSIVE (AROUND 990
MB)...A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THIS LOW AND A BROAD AREA
OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE ALEUTIANS WILL BRING WESTERLY GALE FORCE
WINDS STRETCHING FROM THE BERING SEA TO THE SOUTHWEST COAST LATE
SUNDAY-MONDAY. BECAUSE OF THIS LONG FETCH...15 TO 20 FT SEAS WILL
DEVELOP FROM THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS TO NEAR THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA
COAST...BRINGING THE POSSIBILITY OF COASTAL EROSION FOR THAT AREA
INTO MONDAY. AFTER THE REMNANTS OF THIS LOW WEAKEN OVER THE AREA
ON TUESDAY...THE MODELS ARE TRENDING MUCH WEAKER WITH RIDGING
OVER THE BERING SEA AND INSTEAD BRING A SERIES OF WEAK SYSTEMS TO
THE REGION THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL KEEP ACTIVE
WEATHER OVER MUCH OF THE REGION INTO MID WEEK...HOWEVER AT THIS
POINT NO MAJOR SYSTEMS ARE EXPECTED.
