What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Jan 30, 4:15 PM AKST, 11 hours 18 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 30, 4:15 PM AKST, 11 hours 18 minutes before

SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
415 PM AKST SAT JAN 30 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A 967 MB LOW OVER THE SOUTHERN BERING IS SLOWLY TRACKING NORTH
WHILE DEEPENING. A WEAK JET STREAK IS HELPING TO PUSH THE LOW
NORTH AND IS ALSO HELPING TO BRING WARMER AIR UP FROM THE NORTH
PACIFIC. THE WARMER AIR IS BRINGING RAIN TO AREAS AROUND THE
ALASKA PENINSULA AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA. TO THE EAST...RIDGING
STRETCHES ACROSS THE GULF THROUGH THE SOUTHCENTRAL AND INTO
INTERIOR ALASKA. THIS HAS KEPT MUCH OF THE UPPER LEVEL CLOUD
COVER AWAY AND ALLOWED FOR THE FORMATION OF FOG FOR AREAS NEAR
LARGER BODIES OF WATER.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
THE MODELS ALL HAVE THE SAME GENERAL TRACK OF THE BERING LOW AS IT
PUSHES NORTH WITH THE AMERICAN GUIDANCE A LITTLE SLOWER THAN THE
EC AND GEM. ALTHOUGH THIS DOES NOT CAUSE ANY MAJOR CHANGES IN
TERMS OF IMPACTS. THE BIGGER CHALLENGE IS WITH THE FORMATION OF A
TRIPLE POINT LOW AS THE FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE ALASKA PENINSULA
TONIGHT. THIS CHANGES THE TIMING AND ORIENTATION OF THE FRONT AS
IT MOVES INTO THE GULF. THE NAM DEVELOPS THE LOW FURTHER SOUTH
WHICH RESULTS IN A SLOWER TRACK OF THE FRONT. THE FASTER SOLUTION
OF THE GFS AND EC WAS PREFERRED WHICH BRINGS THE FRONT TO KODIAK
SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

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

THE BUILDING RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER EASTERN HALF OF ALASKA
DOES NOT LOOK AS DOMINANT AS IT DID IN PREVIOUS DAYS. A FEW WEAK
DISTURBANCES TRAPPED UNDER THE RIDGE SHOULD HELP PRODUCE SOME
CLOUD COVER WHICH MAY MAKE THE DEVELOPMENT OF FOG A BIT LESS
LIKELY. HOWEVER...PATCHY TO LOCALLY DENSE FOG WILL ONCE AGAIN BE
EXPECTED AGAIN AROUND COOK INLET TONIGHT. ENOUGH SUBSIDENCE WILL
EXIST WHICH WILL INHIBIT PRECIPITATION ACROSS SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA
BEFORE A FRONT BEGINS APPROACHING KODIAK ISLAND ON SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. YESTERDAY...THE FRONT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO HAVE
A DIFFICULT TIME MAKING IT THROUGH SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA BECAUSE OF
THE BUILDING RIDGE BUT MODELS TODAY SUGGEST A MORE POTENT FRONT
MOVING ACROSS THE REGION. THUS...INCREASED CHANCES FOR RAIN/SNOW
HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED TO THE FORECAST AS WELL AS GALES ACROSS A
GOOD PORTION OF THE OFFSHORE AND COASTAL ZONES. INTERIOR LOCATIONS
OF SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA WILL REMAIN WELL ON THE DRY SIDE WITH
PRECIPITATION BEING DOWNSLOPED BECAUSE OF DECENT CROSS BARRIER
FLOW DUE TO THE FRONTAL ORIENTATION. THE FRONT WILL ORIENT THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT FAVORABLE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE WIN GUSTS UPWARDS TO
40 MPH THROUGH PORTAGE VALLEY AND ALONG TURNAGAIN ARM LATE SUNDAY
AND MONDAY MORNING...BUT OTHERWISE WINDS SHOULD BE RELATIVELY WEAK
ACROSS INLAND LOCATIONS. NO BIG CHANGE IN THE OVERALL PATTERN IS
EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...SO A CONTINUATION OF ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPERATURES IS EXPECTED.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO BRING SCATTERED RAIN
SHOWERS TO MUCH OF THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND TONIGHT AS WINDS BEGIN
TO INCREASE DUE TO A TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT IN ADVANCE OF
THE SURFACE LOW TRACKING INTO THE CENTRAL BERING. AN ASSOCIATED
FRONT WILL APPROACH THE COAST EARLY SUNDAY MORNING...KEEPING THE
BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION AND THE STRONGEST WINDS CONFINED THERE
THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING. THE WEAKENING FRONT WILL THEN BEGIN TO
PUSH INLAND SUNDAY NIGHT AND BRING INCREASED CHANCES FOR
PRECIPITATION TO INLAND AREAS THROUGH MONDAY AS COLD ADVECTION
FROM THE SOUTHWEST FACILITATES A GRADUAL CHANGE FROM RAIN TO SNOW.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
THE DEEPENING LOW NEAR THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS WILL TRACK NORTHWARD
ACROSS THE BERING THROUGH MONDAY ACCOMPANIED BY GALE FORCE WINDS
AND NUMEROUS RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS. THE ASSOCIATED FRONT WILL
MOVE ACROSS THE ALASKA PENINSULA TONIGHT...BRINGING STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS AND A RAIN/SNOW MIX TO THE EASTERN BERING BEFORE
MOVING OVER THE MAINLAND ON SUNDAY. SHOWERS WILL DIMINISH IN
COVERAGE FORM SOUTH TO NORTH THROUGH MONDAY AS THE LOW DEPARTS TO
THE NORTH...WITH PRECIPITATION TYPE GRADUALLY CHANGING TO ALL SNOW
AS COLDER AIR RETURNS ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE DEPARTING LOW SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY.

&&

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

BY LATE MONDAY MOST OF THE IMPACTFUL WEATHER WILL BE ALONG THE
GULF COAST AND POTENTIALLY EXTENDING TO THE UPPER COOK INLET
REGION AS A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH THE AREA.
ANY SNOW FOR ANCHORAGE AND NEARBY AREAS MONDAY NIGHT WOULD BE
EXTREMELY SHORT-LIVED...HOWEVER IT DOES BEAR A CLOSE WATCH FOR
POTENTIAL IMPACTS ON THE TUESDAY MORNING COMMUTE.

THE NEXT SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE AKPEN AND KODIAK FROM THE
SOUTH EARLY TUESDAY AND PUSHES A FRONT TO THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND THROUGH
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. A TRAIN OF SYSTEMS CONTINUES THEREAFTER
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK...SETTING UP AN ACTIVE PATTERN
FOR THE SOUTHERN MAINLAND THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND.

PRECIPITATION-TYPE WILL BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN FOR MUCH OF
SOUTHERN ALASKA...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR LIQUID PRECIPITATION AS
FAR NORTH AS ANCHORAGE AT TIMES WITH CONTINUED WARM
TEMPERATURES. WINDS TO GALE-FORCE AND PERHAPS TO STORM-FORCE WITH
POTENTIAL BARRIER JET FORMATION WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERN FOR NORTH GULF
COASTAL LOCATIONS.
