Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
422 PM AKDT TUE SEP 13 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
The upper level low that brought us rainy and windy weather over
the past couple days is sliding off to the northeast and weakening
this morning. A lingering trough is still bringing rain to the
Copper River Basin, but west of that, a shortwave ridge is
bringing mostly sunny skies and benign weather to the mainland.
Another low pressure system is currently positioned over the
Western Aleutians, with an occluded front stretching from the
western Bering through the Central Aleutians. Most of the main jet
support lies far to the south, and the lack of dynamics with this
system are resulting in mainly gale force winds and rain along the
frontal boundary.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Models are in good agreement on the ridging and winds in the
eastern portion of the state, but disagree on timing of the front
as it approaches the Gulf. NAM/GEM are the fastest solutions with
GFS/EC lagging behind. All four models have slowed this front
since the last run. Even with the timing differences, the effect
on the weather is fairly minimal as this is not expected to be a
strong system.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...Today will be a break in the winds as the ridge moves
overhead. However, tonight SE winds should move back in ahead of
the front. This front is not expected to be as strong as last time
and the SE winds may stay offshore or just west of the airport.
High res models are indicating they will make it as far as PANC
and so it has been included in the 00z TAF package.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
A brief period of ridging will bring clearing skies and
diminishing winds to most of the Southcentral this evening. As
this occurs, there is a chance that some patchy fog/stratus may
develop mainly around Cook Inlet overnight, however this should
not be too long lasting as a front moving into the Gulf on
Wednesday should provide enough instability to scour anything
out. This front and its associated low over the Bering will bring
a return to cloudy and rainy weather throughout Southcentral that
should persist through mid week. In particular, this front will
bring another round of heavy rain to the Gulf Coast from late
Wednesday-Thursday night, with some areas such as Seward
receiving as much as 2-3" of rainfall from this system. The
models have also come into better agreement with a slightly
stronger pressure gradient along the Gulf Coast from this front
and winds were increased, especially along Turnagain Arm. However,
these winds are expected to be notably lighter and less widespread
than the winds that occurred on Sunday night. This winds will also
help to keep the Anchorage Bowl and Matanuska Valley generally dry
from downsloping until they begin to diminish later Thursday
morning, allowing widespread rain to develop throughout the area
for the rest of the day Thursday.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
Ridging overhead will get eroded tonight as the next upper trough
and front approaches from the Bering Sea. Clouds are hanging on in
the Kuskokwim Valley/Delta with weak cyclonic flow holding on in
those areas, but should lift to higher levels as winds flip around
to the northeast late tonight. The front will begin to impact the
Bristol Bay area early Wednesday morning. The occluded front is
stretching out as it moves overhead, so while rain is likely
during the day, it will decrease in coverage in the afternoon,
and become showery toward the evening hours as the front passes.
Thursday will feature a showery pattern as colder air aloft moves
overhead with embedded disturbances coming from the approaching
trough.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
The occluded front will make both northward and eastward progress
overnight before becoming oriented west-east across the Bering,
just north of the Pribilof Islands by Wednesday morning. At this
time the front falls apart with the only forcing for precipitation
being upslope flow against the chain, and vorticity embedded in
the flow. The system slowly moves to the east through Thursday
when a decent slug of cold air comes down behind it from the
Bering Strait, bringing instability showers.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
The models continue depicting a broad area of low pressure
tracking over the Eastern Aleutians near Unalaska by Thursday.
This synoptic feature eventually moves into the northern Gulf by
Sunday, and remains stationary through Monday. Look for the bulk
of the showery precipitation associated with this system to
remain along the northern Gulf coastal communities. While, the
Bering/Aleutians will be influenced by northeasterly winds before
transitioning to northwesterly winds by Friday as this synoptic
system moves into the Southwest/Alaska Peninsula region. As we
head into the weekend, this low pressure system tracks into the
Gulf. Meanwhile, the models struggle with next North Pacific Low
as it drops from the Kamchatka Peninsula before tracking into the
Western Aleutians by Saturday. The GFS model was more progressive
with a faster storm track/strength, and the WPC preferred model
was the ECMWF Ensemble Mean which has a slower storm track for
this system. Overall, look for above average forecast confidence
through rest of week before tapering-off to below average with
the aforementioned system as we head into the weekend. The
temperatures will remain near average for climatology through the
extended time-frame.
