Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
357 PM AKDT SUN AUG 28 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
The two main features affecting the weather over Alaska are as
follows: A huge sprawling upper low complex over northern Canada
with a trough axis spreading toward the Gulf, and a smaller
compact upper low pressure just south of the Central Aleutians.
The latter is embedded in an area of ridging across the northern
Pacific that stretches into northern Alaska. Most of the Mainland
is in northerly cyclonic flow on the periphery of the Canadian
system. However, the column is very dry and there is little
dynamic forcing to speak of. Bluebird conditions exist around the
Cook Inlet region, but some clouds are popping up over the Copper
River Basin. The southwestern Mainland is a mix of low stratus,
high cirrus, and fair weather cumulus. Low stratus encompasses
the Bering Sea and is encroaching on the Kuskokwim Delta. Winds
across the entire mainland are of the outflow variety, gusty in
favored gap locations, which is encouraging compressional warming
along the north Gulf Coast. This is resulting in warmer temperatures
than what they would normally be...especially overnight.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Synoptically, guidance is in about as good agreement as one could
ask for. Overall the biggest difference in models from yesterday
to today is the Canadian upper low is now progged by all models
to be further to the east, barely reaching the Copper River Basin
before sliding into the Gulf. Higher resolution guidance will be
utilized on both domains for the short-term forecast.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
Unseasonably warm and sunny conditions will continue to prevail
through the early part of the work week as dry northerly flow
remains locked in place over the region. This pattern will
continue to promote gusty outflow winds through favored locations
along the north Gulf Coast including Seward, Whittier, and Valdez.
Meanwhile, weak cyclonic flow near the ALCAN border may support a
few afternoon showers over the Wrangell Mountains through Monday.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
A dry offshore pressure gradient will remain dominant through
Tuesday as a northerly flow regime aloft remains across Southwest
Alaska. Some low sea stratus and fog will linger over the coastal
regions of the Kuskokwim Delta tonight before diminishing Monday.
Gusty northerly winds will be the strongest through this evening
then will be less gusty Monday and Tuesday afternoon as the
gradient slowly weakens.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
A large trough centered south of Adak will remain the main
feature of interest as largely weak flow remains over the Bering
Sea. The remnants of a weak upper level warm front have allowed
for continued showers and widespread fog from the Pribilof Islands
to Dutch Harbor. This area of light precipitation and fog will
remain in place through tonight before lifting north and falling
apart Monday evening. A shortwave trough wrapping around the
parent low center in the North Pacific will lift north into the
western and central Aleutians early Tuesday morning and afternoon,
spreading rain and small craft southeast winds into the area. The
eastern Bering will remain on the quieter side as high pressure
dominates.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
Offshore flow through the troposphere will keep Southcentral
Alaska in a warm and sunny weather regime through the end of the
workweek. High pressure ridging aloft begins to dissipate to the
northwest by the end of week, with the entire region increasingly
becoming influenced by cyclonic flow associated with a Bering low.
This will likely result in some increasingly high cloudiness with
offshore flow becoming weak.

This aforementioned Bering low will be near the Western Aleutians
mid-week and push a front north and east across the central and
southeastern Bering and associated island regions before
diminishing as it approaches Southwest Alaska next weekend. The
main impacts will be winds no higher than low-end small-craft
advisory level along with some rain. This rain looks poised to
reach the Southwest mainland Friday or early Saturday with the
diminished front. Rain is likely to spread to the northern Gulf
Coast and Prince William Sound by later Saturday into next Sunday.

With the main jet activity remaining south of the Alaska mainland,
weather systems should have a difficult time moving inland into
the southern mainland.
