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 Jul 9, 4:21 PM AKDT, 11 hours 37 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 9, 4:21 PM AKDT, 11 hours 37 minutes before

Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
421 PM AKDT SAT JUL 9 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
There is an upper level low centered just southwest of Kodiak
Island rapidly entering the gulf. A negatively tilted leading
front is over the central gulf, with some moisture moving into the
Kenai peninsula. A weak upper level ridge is over over south
central Alaska. There is a large flat upper high over the southern
Bering Sea and the Aleutian Islands. An eastward moving front
associated with the Arctic jet is over the northern Bering along
about 170 degrees west longitude. Plenty of moisture remains over
southwest Alaska producing some showers. There are also some
convective showers over inland portions of south central Alaska.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
The numerical models are in good agreement for the short term
portion of the forecast (Monday afternoon). There are some minor
differences on how the models handle the moisture and convection,
but over-all the forecast confidence is above normal.

&&

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

The low crossing into the Gulf with its associated front will
trigger some showers this evening over the Kenai, before rain
begins to spread over coastal areas. Meanwhile waves moving around
the northern flank of this low will interact with the thermal
trough draped along the Alaska range. A few thunderstorms may develop
along the Alaska Range this evening. Sun and Mon an upper level
trough will move from the Bering coast over the region, interact
with the thermal trough as it drifts south of the Alaska range,
and trigger some afternoon and evening thunderstorm activity.

&&

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

An upper level trough moving across the northern Bering Sea
continues to make steady progress toward the west coast of Alaska.
Much of the upper level energy and support will pass north of the
Kuskokwim Delta overnight and Sunday morning but there should be
enough upper level support to produce pretty widespread light rain
showers across the Kuskokwim Delta and Lower Kuskokwim Delta by
midnight tonight. The trough will stall near the Alaska Range on
Sunday which will allow for upslope showers to continue along the
Alaska Range but taper off from west to east elsewhere.

Some clearing has been observed near the Alaska Range this
afternoon which is creating a baroclinic zone due largely to
differential heating with much of Southwest Alaska socked in with
clouds. This should help to increase instability but with lack of
synoptic forcing only a slight chance for thunderstorms has been
introduced with this forecast package. Fog will once again be a
concern tonight and again Sunday night but with the upper level
trough coming through tonight, fog may not be as much of an issue
as it could be on Sunday as the trough shifts eastward and an
eastward progression of the ridge axis over the Bering Sea occurs.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...

Both a surface and upper level ridge will remain entrenched
through the region through the forecast period. However, a weak
shortwave pushing through the upper level ridge will bring some
rain showers to portions of the Bering Sea but should not be
enough to break up the fog that has been observed the past couple
of nights. It is likely visibilities drop to one mile or less
tonight with the worst conditions likely to be observed over the
western Bering Sea.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
High pressure over the Bering and light northerly flow over the
southern mainland will keep most southern mainland locations in
fair conditions with afternoon temperatures getting into the mid
70s through mid week. There is less agreement on Friday when an
upper level trough pushes south through the mainland from the
north. The GFS has a much stronger trough and pulls down much more
cold air than the EC or GEM. The GFS solution would bring much
more rain to Southcentral Alaska than the others Friday night, but
is not the preferred solution. The ensembles are closer to the EC
and GEM and were preferred, keeping the trough weaker than the
robust GFS solution.
