Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
646 PM AKST Thu Nov 24 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A very active weather pattern is in store for the next several
days with a strong amplified jet stream crossing the region.
Currently, a weakening vertically stacked low over the western
Bering Sea is drifting eastward while an elongating occluded
front spreads out across the northern to eastern Bering Sea.
A strong zonal jet streak centered along the Aleutians is driving
the southern end of the front eastward toward Southwest Alaska,
where snow will head onshore this afternoon. A short-wave trough
is following behind the occluded front across the central Bering,
bringing another batch of precipitation. Just behind this an
arctic front is progressing eastward across the Western Aleutians,
ushering in colder air and snow showers, along with strong gusty
winds.

Meanwhile, high pressure is providing quiet conditions across the
southern Alaska Mainland. A weak short-wave which dropped through
the eastern half of Southcentral has dragged some colder air down
from interior Alaska. This is leading to localized gap winds along
Prince William Sound and the Gulf coast.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Forecast confidence with current frontal system remains generally
high as it affects Southwest Alaska and Southcentral Alaska
remains. One new development is depiction by some solutions of a
band of heavier snow lingering ahead of the upper trough axis
Friday afternoon through Friday evening. This would mainly affect
the Western Prince William Sound/Eastern Kenai Peninsula area,
but snow could back into Anchorage and the Mat Valley, adding to
snowfall from earlier in the day. Will continue to monitor new
model runs, but leaning toward a trend toward higher PoPs and QPF
for these areas.

Models seem to be converging on a common solution with deep storm
system crossing into the Bering Sea Friday Night. In particular
this is agreement on a more zonal track across the southern Bering
Sea and across the Alaska Peninsula into the Gulf. The ECMWF is
still faster with tracking the low center into the Gulf and is
being discounted for now. With the much better agreement out west,
forecast confidence has greatly increased. Thus, have a much
better idea of impacts and Warning potential with this system
which is reflected in the afternoon forecast package.

Forecast confidence drops as this system reaches the Gulf and
Southcentral with relatively small, but key differences in low
track and warm frontal position. This creates uncertainty in winds
and ptype, especially across the Kenai Peninsula.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...With steady light snow expected Friday morning expect
prevailing MVFR ceilings with vis likely lowering to IFR in
steadier snow. Higher res models do indicate a shallow layer of
southeast winds along turnagain arm and the Chugach Mtns when snow
first arrives, so conditions could start out a bit higher. These
winds will quickly weaken allowing conditions to drop. Generally
expect improving conditions as snow tapers off Friday aft.
However, some solutions indicate additional snow backing in from
the east Friday afternoon into evening. This is a low probability
scenario, so keeping out of taf for now.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...

Quiescent and cold weather tonight will give way to a fast moving
shortwave trough moving into Southcentral from the Bering Sea. A
secondary surface low will form over the North Gulf Coast Friday
which will keep most precipitation near coastal areas. Inland
areas will see very light snowfall from the Susitna Valley toward
Anchorage, but this will be rather light with any accumulations
being very minor. Farther south, toward the Kenai Peninsula,
expect better snow accumulations. Friday night the front stalls
near Prince William Sound with the associated band of snow hanging
up across the Western Sound and the Chugach Mountains. Uncertainty
exists where the band stalls, but expect at least some
accumulating snow toward Turnagain Pass and Turnagain Arm
northward into the western Copper Basin.

On Saturday a rather strong but tight and concentric low will
quickly move into Bristol Bay with the occluded front quickly
moving into the North Gulf Coast. This will spread more rain and
snow along the coast with widespread light snow inland by Saturday
afternoon. There is some track uncertainty, but right now, with
the low tracking toward Kodiak Island, areas usually favored with
strong easterly low level winds like Turnagain Pass may not see
the typical significant snow dump. Moderate snowfall
accumulations are still likely, however, from Turnagain Pass
toward Thompson Pass/Valdez and Whittier. Inland snow Saturday
will quickly taper off Saturday night as strong downslope flow
and a down inlet pressure gradient will dry the low levels out
rather quickly.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The front moving across the Bering towards southwest Alaska will
continue to push inland over the Kuskokwim Delta this evening,
keeping light snow over much of the area and blowing snow
conditions along the coast through this evening. There will be
enough cold air over much of the southwest mainland to keep the
dominant precipitation type as snow for this system. After the
front moves through the area, gusty winds will diminish Friday
and some snow showers will linger into Friday night.

The next system to bring substantial weather concerns to the
Southwest Mainland will push into the southwest coast and Alaska
Peninsula early Saturday morning, then track into the western Gulf
by Sunday morning. Given the gusty winds and snowfall this system
is expected to produce over the Kuskokwim Delta Saturday, forecast
confidence was high enough to issue a Blizzard Watch over the
area as the Low tracks closer to the coast and the winds shift to
the Northeast. A Blizzard Watch was also issued for the Bristol
Bay area north and west of King Salmon, where snow and gusty winds
are expected ahead of the occlusion. However forecast confidence
was slightly lower given the uncertainty in the timing of how fast
the snow over the inland areas will transition to rain as the warm
air from the occlusion tracks inland.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
The front moving through the eastern most bering and into the
southwest coast this evening will bring colder air and westerly
winds behind it. On Friday a new system will approach the Central
Aleutians from the North Pacific, then cross over the central
Aleutians into the central Bering By Saturday morning. This system
will bring strong gusts and showery conditions to the Central
Aleutians on the back-end of the system Friday night into Saturday
Morning, shifting eastward over the Eastern Aleutians by Saturday
Morning and Alaska Peninsula by Saturday afternoon. Therefore
multiple High Wind Watches were issued for the Central Aleutians,
Eastern Aleutians, and Alaska Peninsula as this system works
through these areas. Forecast confidence was moderate regarding
the High Wind Watches issued today, given the slight differences
in the models with the low center and typically westerly winds are
less favorable for some population areas like Dutch Harbor and
King Cove. However, we are expecting less sheltered areas like
the Central Aleutians, Nikolski, Akun Island, and Cold Bay to
experience Storm to Hurricane force westerly wind as this system
tracks into the Eastern Bering.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
Models have come into better agreement regarding the low crossing
the Alaska Peninsula Saturday evening with the center expected to
track across somewhere around King Salmon or Pilot Point. The low
then continues east across northern Kodiak Island and the Barren
Islands Saturday Night and tracks into the northern Gulf on
Sunday. A secondary low becomes established over Prince William
Sound Sunday Night and remains in place through Monday. Aloft, a
rather cold upper level trough digs south into Southwest Alaska
Sunday and Sunday Night and then shifts east into Southcentral
Alaska on Monday. The combination of the surface low in Prince
William Sound and the cold advection will bring a good potential
for snow over portions of Southcentral Alaska Sunday Night and
Monday. As this system shifts east, additional concerns include
the potential for strong north to northwesterly outflow winds
peaking Tuesday and Tuesday night.

Several more smaller surface lows track from west to east along
the Aleutians and across the Alaska Peninsula Sunday and Monday.
The next larger frontal system approaches the western and central
Aleutians Monday night, the eastern Aleutian and Alaska Peninsula
Tuesday and pushes into the Bristol Bay area Tuesday night.
Portions of the frontal system will continue east into the Gulf
of Alaska and Southcentral Alaska Wednesday. Cold air will persist
inland bringing additional snow potential with this and subsequent
systems following a similar track later in the week.
