SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
430 PM AKDT WED SEP 30 2015

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THERE IS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA JUST
WEST OF THE CANADIAN BORDER. THERE IS AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE FRONT
ALONG THE NORTH GULF COAST CENTERED JUST SOUTHEAST OF CAPE
SUCKLING. THERE IS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN
BERING SEA. NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT IS OVER MOST OF SOUTHERN
ALASKA...WITH LOW LEVEL OFFSHORE FLOW OVER SOUTH CENTRAL. A LARGE
UPPER LOW CENTERED JUST TO THE EAST OF THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA HAS
A LEADING FRONT OVER THE SOUTHWEST BERING SEA AND WESTERN
ALEUTIANS. THIS IS A STRONG FRONT PRODUCING STORM FORCE WINDS (50
KNOTS OR HIGHER).

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
THE NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THE
SHORT TERM PORTION OF THE FORECAST (FRIDAY AFTERNOON). THEY AGREE
DECENTLY WELL ON THE TIMING AND STRENGTH OF THE SURFACE FRONT
MOVING ACROSS THE BERING...BUT ARE SHOWING DIFFERENT LOCATIONS ON
THE CENTRAL LOW. THE CANADIAN MODEL IS DEFINITELY SLOWER AND
FURTHER EAST PRETTY MUCH RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE...WITH THE SURFACE
LOW FORECAST TO BE 250 TO 300 MILES SOUTHEAST OF THE GFS AND
ECMWF POSITIONS BY LATE TONIGHT. THIS MAINLY IMPACTS THE MARINE
FORECASTS FOR THE BERING SEA. OVER-ALL FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS NEAR
NORMAL FOR THE AFTERNOON PACKAGE.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE NORTHERN GULF IS LOCATED JUST
EAST OF CAPE SUCKLING AND WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK EASTWARD. THE
SOUTHCENTRAL REGION WILL HAVE SOME RESIDUAL MOISTURE REMAINING
FROM THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. THE REGION WILL BE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF THE OFFSHORE NORTHWESTERLY FLOW. THIS WILL PRODUCE
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERY REGIME BRIEFLY BEFORE MORE STABLE
CONDITIONS ARRIVE THURSDAY AS AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE
REGION. THURSDAY WILL BRING MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES BEFORE THE DOOR
OPENS UP AGAIN WITH THE NEXT SYSTEM TRACKING INTO THE REGION BY
FRIDAY. THE SOUTHCENTRAL REGION WILL BE UNDER SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW
AGAIN AND WILL RESULT IN MORE ABUNDANT MOISTURE AND RAINFALL INTO
THE REGION AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
THE PATTERN BEGINS TO TRANSITION THIS AFTERNOON AS RIDGING ALOFT
BUILDS IN AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING ALEUTIAN WARM FRONT. LIGHT SNOW
WILL LINGER IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE ALASKA RANGE
OVERNIGHT AND TAPER OFF TOWARD MORNING. WINDS WILL TURN TO THE
SOUTH OVERNIGHT OVER THE REST OF THE MAINLAND AS A SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE SLIDES TO THE EAST. THE WARM FRONT WILL BEGIN TO AFFECT
THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA THURSDAY MORNING AS GUSTY WINDS BEGIN TO
CRANK UP FROM THE SOUTH INTO THE STRONG WIND RANGE...FOLLOWED BY
RAIN SPREADING FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGH THE DAY. THE FRONT WILL
PUSH INLAND OVER THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY AND GREATER BRISTOL BAY AREA
THURSDAY EVENING AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. STEADY RAIN WILL BE
THE FORECAST THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING EXCEPT FOR DIRECTLY OVER THE
ALASKA RANGE WHICH WILL SEE ACCUMULATING SNOW. THE FRONT WILL
STALL OUT OVER THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE DOMAIN KEEPING
PRECIPITATION STEADY...MAINLY OVER THE ALASKA/ALEUTIAN RANGE AND
MORE OF A SHOWERY PATTERN OVER THE REST OF THE MAINLAND. DEEP
LAYER SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES
ABOVE NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
A STORM FORCE FRONT SLIDES ACROSS THE BERING THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AHEAD OF OF A MATURE KAMCHATKA SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM. STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS AND RAIN WILL MOVE TO THE CENTRAL
ALEUTIANS OVERNIGHT AND THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS/EASTERN ALEUTIANS BY
EARLY MORNING. THE WARM FRONT MOVES ASHORE THE MAINLAND THURSDAY
AFTERNOON LEAVING THE BERING IN A SHOWERY SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (DAYS 4 THROUGH 7)...

BEGINNING THE EXTENDED PERIOD FORECAST ON SUNDAY...A RELATIVELY
ZONAL PATTERN WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS THE BERING AND SOUTHERN
ALASKA. AFTER A WET SATURDAY...DRYING WILL BE UNDERWAY SUNDAY
ACROSS SOUTHERN ALASKA AS THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH ASSOCIATED WITH
SATURDAYS RAINFALL MOVES EAST INTO CANADA. A SPRAWLING UPPER LOW
AND ASSOCIATED FRONTAL ZONE WILL MOVE INTO THE BERING SEA ON
SUNDAY...WITH THE ASSOCIATED FRONTAL ZONE MOVING EAST ACROSS THE
BERING INTO SOUTHWEST ALASKA ON MONDAY. THERE CONTINUES TO BE SOME
DISCREPANCY WITH HOW MUCH THE BERING TROUGH INTERACTS WITH A NORTH
PACIFIC LOW SOUTH OF THE ALASKA MAINLAND...AND HOW FAR EAST
PRECIPITATION MOVES TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. THE ECMWF AND GFS
DIFFER RUN BY RUN WITH THIS SCENARIO...WHICH KEEPS CONFIDENCE
LOWER BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. AS A RESULT...A WPC APPROACH
WHICH FAVORS ENSEMBLE BLENDS WAS CONTINUED...WHICH KEEPS THE
CHANCE FOR RAIN ACROSS ALASKA BEGINNING EARLY NEXT WEEK. NEAR
NORMAL CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE EXTENDED FORECAST
PERIOD WITH NO MAJOR STORMS OR COLD OUTBREAKS EXPECTED.

&&
