Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
437 AM AKDT THU JUN 9 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A skinny upper level ridge over the south mainland continues to
bring mostly clear skies and light winds to most areas east of the
Alaska Range. This is however beginning to slowly weaken as a
frontal system associated with a broad upper level trough over
the western Bering Sea begins to approach the southwest coast.
This front began to intensify as it moved towards the pribilof
islands overnight, but will begin to weaken today as it detaches
from the upper level low and approaches the southwest coast. To
the north, an elongated shortwave associated an arctic trough over
the eastern arctic coast is bringing showers just north of the
area, and will remain there as the trough lifts to the north.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
The models remain in very good agreement into Friday with both
the weakening of ridging over Southcentral and the track of the
front into the southwest coast. Once this front begins to elongate
and weaken Friday morning, they models begin to struggle with the
location of rainfall throughout the south mainland as series of
weak waves approach in broad southerly flow. This is not a pattern
that the models tend to handle very well, so confidence in the
precipitation forecast over most interior locations is fairly low.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The strong upper ridge which was overhead of Southcentral on
Thursday will exit eastward into Canada today, but another
short-wave ridge building ahead of a large Aleutian low will
provide another warm and sunny day for most of the region. The
one exception remains along the thermal trough which is centered
along the Alaska Range. There is just enough instability to
produce a few showers and possibly an isolated thunderstorm.
The most significant difference from Thursday will be the shift
in low level flow from offshore to onshore. With a surface high
over the Gulf and thermal trough inland this will be an ideal day
for sea breezes which will produce notable cooler temperatures
along the coast along with some gusty winds in the afternoon.

More significant changes are on the way Tonight through Friday
Night as the upper ridge completely exits and a large and broad
upper trough moves in from the Bering Sea. Kodiak Island will see
the first impacts as a weakening surface front cross the western
Gulf late Today through Friday. The front will completely fall
apart as it reaches the Kenai Peninsula. Thus, the main forcing
for precip over Southcentral Friday through Friday Night will be
mid to upper level instability as the upper trough moves overhead
along with upward vertical motion provided by a myriad of embedded
weak short-waves. This makes it hard to pinpoint where rain will
fall, so have used a broadbrush approach for the precip forecast.
Bottom line, expect increasing clouds and cooler temperatures as
we head through Friday and into the weekend.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
The Copper River Basin will see another warm and dry day today
with ridging aloft. The combination of the thermal trough inland
and surface high over the Gulf will lead to development of
southerly winds across the heart of the basin during the early to
mid afternoon. Winds will peak during the late afternoon and early
evening hours with the strongest winds along and near the Copper
River. A Red Flag Warning is in effect for this time period. It
does look like winds will linger into the overnight hours, but
temperatures and humidities will both begin to moderate by late
evening with the loss of sunlight. It looks like winds will pick
back up by Friday afternoon, but with the approach of the upper
level trough expect marginally cooler temperatures and higher
humidities.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The Southwest Alaska coastline has a frontal boundary approaching
by this afternoon. Small craft advisory southeasterly winds will
develop along the coastline before tapering off as the weather
front moves inland by this evening. As the frontal boundary moves
through the AOR, this synoptic feature will bring a swath of
widespread wetting rains to the southwest coastline by this
afternoon. The precipitation will move from south to north as the
weather front exits the region by Friday afternoon. Look for the
Lower Kuskokwim Valley to have a chance for isolated
thunderstorms this afternoon/evening time-frame. With the
increased cloud cover the high temperatures will remain in the
lower to mid 60s with continued onshore flow. There will be some
stratus/fog by Friday morning along the Bristol Bay coastline, and
aided by onshore flow.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
The Western Aleutians will have a North Pacific Low near Adak,
and a triple point low forming just north of Unalaska this
morning. These two systems will phase into one low in the central
Bering Sea by Friday morning, and remain almost stationary heading
into the weekend. Therefore, a showery weather regime will
transform throughout the Bering Sea, and the Aleutian Chain. The
only exception will occur over the eastern Bering today. The
weather front associated with the triple point low will move
through the eastern Bering/Aleutians bringing stratiform rain to
the region. While, the strongest winds will be on the backside of
the low pressure system. Resulting in small craft advisory
northeasterly winds from the northern Bering Sea extending
southwest into the Western Aleutians.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...

Models are lining up well for day 3, and for continuity with the
short term the GFS was used. This solution shows a consolidated
triple point low in the Bering with high pressure building in the
Gulf. This will bring showers and rain to the Bering and
Aleutians, with rain along the Gulf coast and showers over the
mountains of the mainland.

The rest of the extended is once again handled well with the EC
and related ensembles. The Bering low will spin off another triple
point low that moves into the Gulf on Sun and then departs to the
southeast late Mon. As energy is transferred east from the Bering
low, high pressure builds over the Bering through the end of next
week. The next low from the North Pacific will then affect the
western Aleutians by midweek.

Coastal rain and mainland showers will persist through the
forecast, except over the southwest which will begin to warm and
dry Mon. Showers and rain will affect the western Aleutians later
in the week.
