SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
506 AM AKST SUN JAN 10 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
THE JET STREAM REMAINS ZONALLY ORIENTED NEAR THE MID-LATITUDES
ACROSS THE CENTRAL PACIFIC. A VERY RESILIENT TROUGH IS ELONGATED
FROM WEST OF THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA THROUGH THE BERING SEA...WITH
A BAGGY APPENDAGE IN THE NORTHCENTRAL PACIFIC. THIS APPENDAGE HAS
BEEN THE BREEDING GROUND FOR STORM SYSTEMS AFFECTING THE SOUTHERN
MAINLAND RECENTLY AS WESTERN NORTH AMERICA RIDGING HAS KEPT
RELATIVELY WARM AIR IN THE LOW LEVELS OF THE NORTHEAST PACIFIC.
THE CURRENT INCARNATION IS DEVELOPING SOUTH OF KODIAK
ISLAND...SENDING YET ANOTHER FRONT INTO THE NORTHERN GULF. GALE TO
STORM FORCE WINDS ACCOMPANY THE FRONT OVER THE GULF WHILE AHEAD OF
IT...CONVECTIVE SHOWERS ARE AFFECTING WESTERN PRINCE WILLIAM
SOUND. OVER THE SOUTHWEST...A WIDE BAND OF PRECIPITATION IS
SETTING UP FROM THE WESTERN BRISTOL BAY ZONE THROUGH PORT HEIDEN
WHICH IS A DEFORMATION/CONVERGENCE BAND AS THE INCOMING SYSTEM AND
OUTGOING ONE COLLIDE. THAT PREVIOUS SYSTEM IS WEAKENING OVER THE
NORTHERN BERING...PULLING NORTH OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS WITH A
LAST GASP OF WIND AND SNOW OVERNIGHT.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
GUIDANCE IS IN DECENT AGREEMENT WITH THE UPPER LEVEL HEIGHT FIELDS
AS WELL AS THE SURFACE FIELDS THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...ESPECIALLY
GIVEN THE NUMBER OF WEAK AND SMALL SCALE CIRCULATIONS EVIDENT ON
SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE GENERAL THEME AMONG GUIDANCE IS TO KEEP
NEARLY THE SAME PATTERN IN PLACE WITH A STORM TRACK WELL TO THE
SOUTH AND A SERIES OF LOWS/FRONTS DYING IN THE GULF.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
BROAD SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW CONTINUES ALOFT OVER SOUTHCENTRAL THROUGH
MON. THE MAIN UPPER WAVE ASSOCIATED WITH A 970S MB LOW MOVES
NORTH TO OVER SW ALASKA MON MORNING. MINOR WAVES EMBEDDED IN THE
SE FLOW PROPAGATE NORTH ACROSS THE GULF AND SOUTHCENTRAL THROUGH
MON. A FRONTAL TROUGH OVER THE GULF OF ALASKA MOVES TO THE NORTH
GULF COAST TONIGHT THEN STALLS AND SLOWLY WEAKENS THROUGH MON.

THE CURRENT UPPER LEVEL PATTERN AND SURFACE SUGGEST A
CONTINUATION OF WET CONDITIONS ALONG COASTAL LOCATIONS AND EXCEPT
FOR THE OCCASIONAL SPILL OVER...RELATIVELY DRY CONDITIONS INLAND
THROUGH MON. WINDS ARE MORE OF INTEREST AHEAD OF THE FRONT. GALE
TO STORM FORCE WINDS WILL SPREAD INTO THE NORTH GULF AND COASTAL
LOCATIONS TODAY WITH GAP FLOWS ACROSS FAVORED AREAS (TURNAGAIN
ARM/PORTAGE VALLEY/MAT VALLEY). WINDY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE IN
THE AFOREMENTIONED AREAS THROUGH TONIGHT...BEFORE DIMINISHING ON
MON. HOWEVER...BARRIER JET CONDITIONS ALONG THE EASTERN GULF WILL
CONTINUE GALES OVER THE EASTERN GULF COAST INTO MON AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
A TROUGH EXITING THE SOUTHWEST THIS MORNING WILL BE FOLLOWED
QUICKLY BY ANOTHER SURFACE LOW MOVING UP FROM THE NORTH PACIFIC
TONIGHT. WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION FILTERS ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST LATE
THIS MORNING WHICH WILL CHANGE PRECIPITATION MAINLY OVER TO SNOW
EXCEPT FOR ALONG THE ALEUTIAN RANGE WHERE TEMPERATURES WILL STAY
SLIGHTLY WARMER TO STAY ALL RAIN. THE NEXT FRONT MOVES INTO
BRISTOL BAY THIS EVENING WITH A WARMER AIR MASS BRINGING ABOUT
CHANGES IN PRECIPITATION TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT AS COLD AIR
ADVECTS IN BEHIND THIS SYSTEM.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (DAYS 1 AND 2)...
LOW PRESSURE IN THE NORTHERN BERING WILL KEEP GALE WINDS ACROSS
THE PRIBILOFS AND NORTH THIS MORNING...THEN WINDS TAPER DOWN
LATER TODAY AS THE SYSTEM MOVES WEST AND DIMINISHES. WEAK RIDGING
CENTERS ACROSS THE BERING TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT BRINGING
ABOUT COLDER AND DRIER CONDITIONS FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK.
THE EASTERN BERING WILL SEE GUSTY NORTHERLY FLOW TONIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY AS THE NEXT NORTH PACIFIC LOW SQUEEZES THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
ALONG THE WEST COAST. ALONG THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL ALEUTIANS...THE
NEXT FRONT MOVES UP MONDAY AFTERNOON BRINGING GUSTY WINDS FROM THE
EAST AND SOUTHEAST AND MIXED PRECIPITATION.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (DAYS 3 THROUGH 7)...
THE UPPER LEVELS AT 300 MB REFLECT AN AMPLIFIED RIDGE OVER THE
NORTHWEST EXTENDING NORTHWARD INTO THE UPPER YUKON TERRITORY
KEEPING SYSTEMS IN THE GULF. LOCATED UPSTREAM IS A TROUGH OVER
THE NORTH PACIFIC EXTENDING INTO THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS AND A
CLOSED LOW POSITIONED JUST WEST OF THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA. THIS
GENERAL PATTERN IS CONSISTENT WITH THE 500 MB 5-WAVE GEOPOTENTIAL
HEIGHT IMAGERY WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED SYNOPTIC FEATURES. THE ONLY
CHANGE WILL BE THE AMPLIFIED RIDGE THAT WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD
AND RETROGRADE OVER THE SOUTHEAST PANHANDLE EXTENDING ALONG THE
NORTHERN GULF COASTLINE. THE TROUGH OVER THE NORTH PACIFIC LOCATED
SOUTH OF THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS WILL BECOME NEGATIVELY TILTED
HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. THE UPPER LEVEL CLOSED LOW NEAR THE
KAMCHATKA PENINSULA WILL BECOME ELONGATED WITH MULTIPLE WEAKER
LOWS FORMING ALONG THE CHAIN.

REFLECTED AT THE SURFACE...THESE SYNOPTIC FEATURES WILL BE SEEN
AS AN ELONGATED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM LOCATED JUST SOUTH OF THE
WESTERN ALEUTIANS EXTENDING EASTWARD INTO THE PACIFIC ON TUESDAY.
THIS SYSTEM WILL TRANSITION INTO A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
SOUTH OF THE EASTERN ALEUTIANS BY THURSDAY BEFORE GRADUALLY MOVING
EASTWARD JUST SOUTH OF KODIAK ISLAND BY SATURDAY. IN THE GULF OF
ALASKA THERE WILL BE ANOTHER ELONGATED LOW POSITIONED IN THE
CENTRAL GULF EXTENDING WESTWARD INTO THE BARREN ISLAND REGION BY
TUESDAY EVENING BEFORE DISSIPATING BY WEDNESDAY. OVERALL...THE
SOUTHWEST AND SOUTHCENTRAL AOR WILL HAVE WARMER TEMPERATURES
THROUGH THE WEEK WITH THE NORTHERN COASTAL COMMUNITIES RECEIVING
THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION. THE ANCHORAGE BOWL AND THE WESTERN
KENAI WILL HAVE DOWNSLOPE DRIER CONDITIONS AS THIS SYSTEM
DISSIPATES BY MIDWEEK. WHILE ON THE BERING SIDE...THIS PATTERN
WILL PRODUCE A SHOWERY WEATHER REGIME WITH NORTHERLY/NORTHEASTERLY
WINDS THROUGH THE MIDWEEK TIME-FRAME HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. THE
MODELS CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE WITH THE PLACEMENT OF THE BROAD LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM DEVELOPING OVER THE BERING SEA AND THE ALEUTIAN
CHAIN. THIS IS RESULTING IN THE FORECAST CONFIDENCE BEING BELOW
AVERAGE THROUGH THIS UPCOMING WEEK.
