ALASKA PENINSULA TO JUST EAST OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS AND THEN
WRAPS BACK INTO THE WESTERN AREAS OF THE BERING. SNOW AND RAIN ARE
OCCURRING ALONG THE ALASKA PENINSULA WITH MAINLY SNOW ALONG THE
BOUNDARY IN THE BERING. ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND...A WEAK
DEFORMATION ZONE SET UP ALONG BRISTOL BAY BRINGING A FEW SNOW
SHOWERS AND FOG. OTHERWISE...THE MAINLAND IS UNDER RELATIVELY
QUIET CONDITIONS THIS MORNING WITH SCATTERED SHOWER ACTIVITY
ACROSS THE GULF.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
MODELS ARE IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE SYNOPTIC PATTERN
THROUGH FRIDAY. THE NAM AND GEM MODELS WERE INITIALLY USED TO
UPDATE THE FORECAST ACROSS SOUTHCENTRAL AND THE GULF WITH A
TRANSITION TO THE GFS. THE SOUTHWEST...BERING AND ALEUTIANS WERE
UPDATED WITH THE GFS WHICH CONTINUED TO BE MOST CONSISTENT WITH
HANDLING WIND SPEEDS AROUND THE CORE OF THE BERING LOW.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
MID LEVEL RIDGING OVER MUCH OF SOUTHCENTRAL AND THE GULF COAST
WILL BRING MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES AND MILD TEMPERATURES TO MOST AREAS.
THIS RIDGING WILL THEN BEGIN TO SLIDE INTO THE INTERIOR THIS
AFTERNOON IN ADVANCE OF A WEAKENING SYSTEM THAT WILL BE MOVING
INTO THE NORTHERN GULF. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF
RAIN AND GALE FORCE WINDS TO THE WESTERN/NORTHERN GULF BY THIS
EVENING WHICH WILL THEN PERSIST INTO FRIDAY MORNING. OVER THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE GULF COAST (SUCH AS TURNAGAIN AND
THOMPSON PASS)...THIS WILL BRING A FEW INCHES OF NEW SNOWFALL TO
THOSE AREAS...WITH TEMPERATURES REMAINING COLD ENOUGH TO THOMPSON
PASS TO SUPPORT LOCALIZED AREAS OF BLOWING SNOW THROUGH FRIDAY
MORNING. INTERIOR SOUTHCENTRAL SHOULD ONCE AGAIN BE SPARED FROM
PRECIPITATION FROM THIS SYSTEM WITH WEAK DOWNSLOPING AND DRY LOW
LEVELS...THOUGH A STRAY SHOWER OR TWO MAY SNEAK THROUGH THE
CHUGACH MOUNTAINS ON FRIDAY MORNING. BY FRIDAY EVENING...RIDGING
WILL RETURN TO SOUTHCENTRAL AS THE GULF LOW RETREATS BACK TO THE
NORTH PACIFIC...BRINGING CLEARING SKIES AND CONTINUED MILD
TEMPERATURES TO THE AREA FOR THE START OF THE WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
A WEAKENING AREA OF DEFORMATION BETWEEN THE LOW IN THE GULF AND
THE APPROACHING BERING SYSTEM WILL SUPPORT LIGHT SNOW ALONG AN
AXIS FROM WESTERN BRISTOL BAY INTO THE WESTERN KUSKOKWIM VALLEY
THROUGH EARLY THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE TAPERING OFF TO SHOWERS...WITH
MINIMAL IF ANY ACCUMULATION EXPECTED. EAST TO NORTHEAST WINDS WILL
BEGIN TO INCREASE TODAY AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS AHEAD OF
THE APPROACHING BERING LOW. AS THE LOW MOVES SOUTH OF THE AKPEN
THIS AFTERNOON...THE FRONT WILL REMAIN OFFSHORE AS IT PIVOTS TO
MORE OF AN EAST/WEST ORIENTATION AND DISSIPATES. THIS WILL KEEP
MOST OF THE SOUTHWEST MAINLAND DRY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE
BEST CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION REMAIN CONFINED TO AREAS ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
HIGH WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE CENTRAL ALEUTIANS AND
SURROUNDING COASTAL WATERS THROUGH THIS EVENING IN STRONG COLD
ADVECTION ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE LOW...WITH THE CORE OF STRONGEST
WINDS SHIFTING EASTWARD FROM ADAK TO NEAR ATKA BY THE AFTERNOON AS
THE LOW CENTER MOVES EASTWARD TOWARDS DUTCH HARBOR. THE FRONT
AHEAD OF THE LOW WILL BRING A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW ACCOMPANIED BY
STRONG SOUTHEAST WINDS TO THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS AND ALASKA
PENINSULA THROUGH THIS EVENING BEFORE RAPIDLY DISSIPATING AS THE
LOW DIVES INTO THE NORTH PACIFIC. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS WILL THEN
SETUP OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE BERING THROUGH FRIDAY IN
NORTHERLY FLOW IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING LOW. A MUCH WEAKER AND
MORE COMPACT SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE OVER THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS
FRIDAY AFTERNOON...BRINGING RENEWED POTENTIAL FOR SNOW TO THAT
PART OF THE CHAIN.

&&

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

BEGINNING FRIDAY EVENING THERE WILL BE A BROAD GULF LOW AND A
LEFTOVER FRONT ALONG THE GULF COAST. THE NORTH PACIFIC JET WILL BE
DIVING TOWARD THE WESTERN UNITED STATES COASTLINE...WHICH WILL
ALLOW FOR WEAK HIGH PRESSURE TO DEVELOP OVER SOUTHERN ALASKA
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. A WEAK LOW OVER THE EASTERN BERING WILL CLIP
THE SOUTHWEST COAST AND MAY BRING SOME RAIN AND SNOW BY
MONDAY...BUT SOUTHCENTRAL WILL REMAIN DRY THROUGH AT LEAST
MONDAY. THEREAFTER THERE IS MUCH UNCERTAINTY WITH THE
AFOREMENTIONED BERING LOW PHASING WITH A CUTOFF LOW ACROSS THE
NORTH PACIFIC...WHICH WILL BRING INCREASING CHANCES OF
PRECIPITATION BY MIDWEEK...ALTHOUGH THERE IS MUCH HIGHER
CONFIDENCE BY THIS POINT OF THE EXTENDED FORECAST. OTHERWISE...IN
THE MEAN TIME...TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ABOVE CLIMO.
