SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
449 PM AKST THU JAN 28 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THE REMNANTS OF THE LOW PRESSURE ALOFT THAT HAS BEEN CONTROLLING
WEATHER OVER SOUTHERN ALASKA IS DEAMPLIFYING AND PUSHING INLAND
THIS AFTERNOON. THE CIRCULATION WAS VISIBLE ON RADAR THIS MORNING
IN PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND...BUT APPEARS TO BE RAPIDLY FALLING APART
AS IT MOVES INLAND. THE TROUGH IS BRINGING RAIN TO THE NORTH GULF
COAST...AND THE RADAR HAS FILLED IN NICELY AROUND THE COOK INLET
REGION NOW THAT DOWNSLOPE FLOW HAS WANED. TEMPERATURES AROUND THE
ANCHORAGE BOWL HAVE RESIDED BELOW FREEZING THROUGH THE EARLY
AFTERNOON HOURS WHEN THE LOW IN THE NORTHERN GULF OF ALASKA MOVED
INTO PRICE WILLIAM SOUND PRECIPITATION BEGAN OVERSPREADING THE
REGION AS DOWNSLOPING CEASED. THE 00Z PANC RAOB SHOWED A VERY
POTENT WARM NOSE EXTENDING TO 3600 FT...WHICH WOULD HAVE FAVORED
RAIN (POSSIBLY FREEZING RAIN) AS THE PREDOMINANT PRECIPITATION
TYPE. HOWEVER IT APPEARS THAT THE WARM NOSE WAS ENHANCED BY
DOWNSLOPING INSTEAD OF A DEEP WARMER AIR MASS. THIS ENDED UP
LEADING TO A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW DURING IN THE AFTERNOON AS
HEAVIER PRECIPITATION HELPED DRAG DOWN SOME COOLER AIR AND ALLOW A
WET BULB EFFECT TO OCCUR.

ON THE LARGE SCALE...THE CONTROLLING UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE
STILL SPINS OVER THE EASTERN BERING SEA. THE JET STREAM REMAINS
WELL TO THE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA IN THE CENTRAL PACIFIC.
SEVERAL EMBEDDED DISTURBANCES LIE IN THE CYCLONIC FLOW AROUND THE
LOW PRESSURE BUT THESE WAVES ARE NOTHING MAJOR.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
GUIDANCE ISSUES IN THE VERY SHORT TERM REVOLVE AROUND HOW LONG
PRECIPITATION LASTS AND WHAT TYPE IT WILL TAKE. LOW LEVEL
THICKNESS VALUES SUGGEST STAYING MOSTLY RAIN UNTIL THE EVENING
HOURS BEFORE CHANGING TO SNOW...HOWEVER INTENSE BANDS OF
PRECIPITATION ARE TURNING PRECIPITATION TO ALL SNOW IN AREAS
ALREADY. GENERALLY MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH PRECIPITATION
TAPERING OFF AROUND MIDNIGHT...OR SLIGHTLY LATER.

FURTHER OUT WEST GUIDANCE IS STRUGGLING TO HANDLE DEVELOPMENT OF A
COMPLEX LOW PRESSURE NEAR THE WESTERN/CENTRAL ALEUTIANS OVERNIGHT
TONIGHT...THERE LOOKS TO BE A FEW DIFFERENT CIRCULATIONS
DEVELOPING WITHING THE BROAD SCALE LOW PRESSURE.

&&

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

PRECIPITATION TYPE ACROSS SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA HAS BECOME QUITE THE
CHALLENGE WITH THE FORECAST PACKAGE THIS AFTERNOON. THE WET BULB
POTENTIAL LATE THIS EVENING WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE BUT THE 00Z
SOUNDING SHOWS THE WET BULB ZERO ONLY AT 1100 FT. THIS MEANS THAT
A LARGE PORTION OF THE ANCHORAGE AREA WILL LIKELY SEE MORE RAIN
THAN SNOW WITH LITTLE ACCUMULATION. THE BEST CHANCES FOR SNOW
ACCUMULATION WILL BE OVER EAST ANCHORAGE AND THE EAGLE RIVER AREA
AS WELL AS THE MATANUSKA AND SUSITNA VALLEYS. PRECIPITATION SHOULD
REMAIN MAINLY ALL SNOW THROUGH THE MATANUSKA AND SUSITNA VALLEYS
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF PALMER WHICH SHOULD CHANGE OVER TO SNOW IN
THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. PATCHY FOG HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE KENAI
PENINSULA IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH PASSAGE AS A DEEP
MOIST AIR MASS IS CURRENTLY IN PLACE. THIS FOG IS EXPECTED TO MOVE
INTO THE ANCHORAGE AREA AFTER THE PRECIPITATION TAPERS OFF LATE
THIS EVENING.

COME FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO BUILD BACK ACROSS THE
REGION FROM THE PACIFIC WHICH WILL BRING A PERIOD OF BENIGN
WEATHER BACK TO SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA. HOWEVER...TEMPERATURES WILL
REMAIN A GOOD BIT ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
SOUTHWEST ALASKA WILL STAY IN LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS WITH SOUTH TO
SOUTHWEST FLOW INTO FRIDAY AS AN EASTERN BERING LOW PUSHES NORTH.

IS PULLING UP WARM AIR THAT WILL TRANSITION MUCH OF THE SNOW OVER
TO RAIN FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
THE MAIN AREA OF IMPACT THIS EVENING IS OVER THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS
AND EAST TOWARDS THE ALASKA PENINSULA. WITH AN UNSTABLE
ENVIRONMENT AND A STRONG VORTICITY MAX BEING PUSHED THROUGH FROM
THE EASTERN BERING LOW...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL EXISTS OVER THE
AREA INTO THE NIGHT. THE SHORTWAVE WILL PUSH THROUGH BY FRIDAY
MORNING AND THEN SNOW SHOWERS WILL LINGER IN THE AREA INTO THE
AFTERNOON. A NORTH PACIFIC LOW MOVING TOWARDS THE ALEUTIANS WILL
PUSH ITS FRONT OVER THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS FRIDAY MORNING AND THE
EASTERN ALEUTIANS FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THE FRONT WILL BRING WARMER
AIR TO EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE ALEUTIANS AND BERING CHANGING OVER
MUCH OF THE SNOW TO RAIN.

&&

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

STRONG LOW PRESSURE IN THE VICINITY OF THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS AND
SOUTH-CENTRAL BERING SATURDAY WILL MOVE NORTHWEST WHILE BROADENING
AND WEAKENING THROUGH MONDAY OR TUESDAY BEFORE DISSIPATING.
SOUTHERLY FLOW IN THE MID-LEVELS WILL CONTINUE FROM THE EASTERN
HALF OF THE BERING TO THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND...WITH MID-LEVEL LOW
PRESSURE NEAR KAMCHATKA AND HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE PANHANDLE AND
EASTERN MAINLAND. THIS KIND OF ATMOSPHERIC PATTERN WILL ALLOW FOR
WARMER AND WETTER CONDITIONS WHERE THE SOUTHERLY FLOW
PERSISTS...WHILE UNDERNEATH THE MID-LEVEL HIGH...PLACES SUCH AS
THE COPPER RIVER BASIN AND SHELTERED VALLEYS INLAND WILL SEE THE
COLDEST TEMPERATURES AND DRIEST CONDITIONS.

BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK THE RIDGE OVER THE EASTERN MAINLAND MAY
BREAK DOWN A BIT AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WEAKENS AS IT MOVES
NORTH TOWARD THE BRISTOL BAY AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA REGION. THIS MAY
ALLOW A BIT MORE ACTIVE WEATHER TO RETURN TO MUCH OF THE SOUTHERN
MAINLAND.
