Area forecast discussion, Mar 5, 4:41 AM AKST, 10 hours 33 minutes before

SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
441 AM AKST SAT MAR 5 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A BROAD UPPER LEVEL LOW EXTENDS FROM BRISTOL BAY TO SOUTH OF THE
GULF OF ALASKA. THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL CIRCULATION IS NEAR BRISTOL
BAY WITH A SHORTWAVE STRETCHING NORTH ALONG THE WEST COAST. BEHIND
THIS SHORTWAVE WARMER AIR IS BEING PULLED UP OVER THE SOUTHCENTRAL
FROM THE GULF. HIGH PRESSURE SITS OVER THE WESTERN BERING BRINGING
COLD NORTHERLY FLOW TO THE BERING AND ALEUTIANS.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
THE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT UNTIL SUNDAY AFTERNOON WHEN A NEW
LOW FORMS IN THE WESTERN GULF. THE GFS AND EC HAVE A MORE MIDDLE
GROUND SOLUTION AND ARE CONSISTENT WITH EACH OTHER KEEPING THE
LOW JUST EAST OF KODIAK ISLAND SUNDAY EVENING. THESE ARE THE
MODELS OF CHOICE AND WILL ALSO HELP TO GIVE A MIDDLE GROUND ON THE
STRENGTH OF THE LOW.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
THE MAIN UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER BRISTOL BAY WILL SLIDE TO THE
WEST-SOUTHWEST FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THIS WILL ALLOW A
SERIES OF SYSTEMS TO PUSH INTO SOUTH CENTRAL ALASKA. THE FIRST OF
THESE OVER THE KENAI PENINSULA AND COOK INLET AREA THIS MORNING
WILL PUSH WEST INTO SOUTHWEST ALASKA LATER TODAY. THE NEXT
(WEAKER) SYSTEM WILL REACH THE GULF COAST LATE TONIGHT AND BREAK
APART SUNDAY MORNING. THEN THERE WILL BE A BRIEF BREAK FOR MOST OF
SOUTH CENTRAL AS THE MAIN BAROCLINIC BAND DRIFTS SOUTH. THE
EXCEPTION WILL BE KODIAK ISLAND...WHICH WILL BE IN THE DIRECT LINE
OF THAT BAROCLINIC BAND. THE NEXT SYSTEM WILL WIND UP OVER THE
SOUTHEAST GULF SUNDAY MORNING AND WORK ITS WAY TOWARD KODIAK
ISLAND SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM WILL HAVE A DECENT SURFACE LOW
ASSOCIATED WITH IT...THOUGH THE MODELS DISAGREE SOMEWHAT ON THE
STRENGTH.

&&

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

A WEAK TROUGH EXTENDING FROM THE GULF OF ALASKA COMBINED WITH
SEVERAL WEAK WAVES ALOFT WILL BE ENOUGH FOR SNOW DEVELOPMENT TO
CONTINUE ACROSS BRISTOL BAY THROUGH TONIGHT. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
SNOW SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED ELSEWHERE ACROSS THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY
AND DELTA ALONG THE OUTER PERIMETER OF THE TROUGH. GUSTY WINDS
ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN COAST CONTINUES THROUGH TONIGHT AS A
TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT AT THE SURFACE PERSISTS BETWEEN LOW
PRESSURE IN THE GULF AND HIGH PRESSURE TO THE WEST. WINDS TAPER
DOWN FOR SUNDAY INTO MONDAY WITH WEAK TROUGHING SHIFTING BACK INTO
THE EASTERN BERING. PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE ALEUTIAN RANGE AND
ALASKA PENINSULA WILL BRIEFLY MIX WITH RAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS A
SLIGHTLY WARMER AIR MASS NUDGES IN FROM THE WESTERN GULF.

&&

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

A PERSISTENT PATTERN WILL CONTINUE INTO MONDAY WITH COOL NORTHERLY
WINDS AND SNOW SHOWERS BRINGING LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS TO THE
PRIBILOFS AND ALEUTIANS THIS WEEKEND. THE FLOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN
WATERS WILL BE GUSTY GALES WHICH TAPER DOWN BY SUNDAY AS WEAK LOW
PRESSURE BEGINS TO PUSH INTO THE EASTERN BERING.

&&

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

MODELS ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT IN THE MID TO LONG TERM WITH
SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW PERSISTING ACROSS THE GULF OF ALASKA AND
NORTHERLY FLOW IN THE BERING. BY SUNDAY EVENING THREE SURFACE
FEATURES ROTATING THROUGH THE SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW WILL BE
IMPACTING THE AREA. THE FIRST IS A DIFFUSE AND WEAKENING SURFACE
LOW WHICH WILL BE OVER BRISTOL BAY...THE SECOND A SURFACE LOW IN
THE WESTERN GULF APPROACHING THE BARREN ISLANDS AND THE THIRD
ANOTHER SURFACE LOW OFF OF THE SOUTHERN SOUTHEAST ALASKA
PANHANDLE. THESE FEATURES WILL CONTINUE TO ROTATE ALONG A SIMILAR
TRACK AS A DEEP LOW FROM THE NORTH PACIFIC APPROACHES THE SOUTHERN
GULF.

THE SURFACE FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LARGE SOUTHERN LOW WILL
SPREAD INCREASING EASTERLY WINDS TO THE SOUTHERN GULF MONDAY NIGHT
AND THROUGH OUT THE GULF ON TUESDAY. A FRONTAL SYSTEM COMING IN
FROM THE WEST WILL REACH THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS TUESDAY FOLLOWED BY
A SECOND STRONGER SYSTEM SWINGING IN WEDNESDAY AND CUTTING JUST
SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS AS IT CONTINUES EAST. A SIMILAR PATTERN
WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK WITH THE MEAN UPPER
LEVEL LOW POSITION REMAINING NEAR THE SOUTHERN GULF AND AN UPPER
LEVEL RIDGING EXTENDING FROM CANADA INTO INTERIOR ALASKA.
