Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
446 AM AKDT FRI SEP 30 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
The upper air pattern is amplifying this morning as a deepening
North Pacific low lifts northward toward the Eastern Aleutians.
Quite a bit of warm air advection is moving across the Bering
toward the Chukchi Sea, and this process is amplifying a large
ridge across mainland Alaska. Gusty southerly gap winds are
already developing across the Eastern Aleutians, and western Akpen
ahead of the strengthening surface low. Farther east, offshore
flow is weakening as a shortwave trough digs into the Panhandle of
Alaska and ridging aloft builds in. This dry offshore flow is
largely keeping fog at bay across Southcentral.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
The numerical models are in excellent agreement with the general
large scale synoptic pattern through Monday. They are in excellent
agreement with the storm force low expected to move through the
Eastern Bering Sea as well as its eastward progress. Forecast
confidence is extremely high.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...VFR conditions and light winds will persist.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
With low level flow continuing to slacken through the early
morning hours and temperatures falling expect there to be at
least some patchy shallow fog, primarily in the Cook Inlet
region where the upper ridge is moving overhead. Otherwise,
with the exception of a few high clouds rounding the ridge,
expect abundant sunshine today.

As the ridge slides eastward Tonight through Saturday Night a
strong front will move in from the Bering Sea and Aleutians. There
is high confidence that this will arrive sooner, with rain and
winds reaching Kodiak Island by early Saturday and spreading to
the Kenai Peninsula Saturday afternoon and evening. There is much
greater uncertainty with the track of the upper trough Saturday
Night, which will determine how far north and east the rain will
spread. Have generally upped PoPs from Anchorage up to the Mat-Su.
Southeasterly flow will provide some downslope drying early on,
but expect this to weaken allowing an increased chance of light
rain overnight Saturday Night.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
One more morning of patchy fog will be seen across the Bristol
Bay area, and Lower Kuskokwim Valley this morning. The departing
ridge of high pressure gives way to a potent front that is
currently in the process of developing in the North Pacific south
of Nikolski. Cloud cover increases as the remains of a frontal
boundary continues to dissipate just off the west coast of Alaska.
Much of Southwest Alaska remains on the dry side through the
evening except for coastal locations where the PABE NEXRAD is
beginning to pick up some weak returns from the remains of the
dissipated front. By midnight tonight, a very potent warm front is
expected to slam against the west coast of Alaska. This feature
brings periods of moderate to heavy rain with gusty winds. Look
for the strongest winds to be confined along the immediate coast
to locations from Cape Newenham to Toksook Bay. Winds could gust
as high as 65 mph starting this evening, and lingering through
Saturday morning across the aforementioned locations while much of
Southwest Alaska receiving wind gusts around 40 to 50 mph.

The area most likely to experience the brunt of the rapidly
developing front will be the Alaska Peninsula where wind gusts
likely reaching 70 mph with the potential for a few stronger
gusts. A strong stable layer near mountain-top level favors
mountain wave development which could bring some isolated wind
gusts close to 80 mph. A decision not to issue a high wind warning
was made due to the speed that the front is making (strongest
winds impacting any one location will likely be in the 3 to 6 hour
range), and the isolated nature of the strongest winds. However,
those located on the Alaska Peninsula, and west coast of Alaska
should still prepare for the first big storm of the storm season.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
Latest scatterometer data shows a developing warm front south of
Nikolski in the North Pacific. In addition, latest observations
show an area of low pressure south of Adak quickly moving to the
northeast toward the Bering Sea. This low and the associated front
strengthens throughout the day, and winds up to 50 kts are
expected across the eastern half of the Bering Sea. The front will
be a quick mover, and should push into Southwest Alaska by
Saturday morning/afternoon. Look for this synoptic system to dump
an appreciable amount of rainfall in a relatively short period
across the Eastern Aleutians and Alaska Peninsula.

As the low moves across the Bering on Saturday, the upper level
low (which will be stacked on top of the surface low by this
point) will ingest some cold air from the Arctic. This aides in
helping to mix down some gusty winds on the back side of the low.
The lower/mid levels of the atmosphere look fairy stable with
this feature as LI values of +5 to +8 will prevent mixing down of
the strongest core of winds (60 to 65 kt). It looks quite possible
a brief period of storm force winds could be seen over the Bering
Sea Saturday morning before the upper level support diminishes but
confidence in winds that strong is lacking at the moment. The low
will weaken over the weekend and rainfall amounts and wind speeds
will diminish in response. A shortwave trough will enter the far
western Bering Sea Saturday afternoon bringing another round of
rain to the Western Aleutians/Bering Sea.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
a gale force front associated with a low over the eastern Bering
brings gusty winds, and rain into the southwest Mainland through
Sunday. Immediately behind this front, a wave just south of the
AKpen will rapidly deepen as it moves into the Gulf on Sunday,
dragging the front southward into the Gulf. As a result it appears
that most of the winds, and rain from this system remains confined
to the western Gulf, and eastern Kenai Peninsula. While most of
the Southcentral, and Prince William Sound should remain mostly
dry with the exception of a some spotty rain showers. By early
Monday, the models have all trended notably deeper with the low
as it moves into the southern Gulf, allowing us to significantly
increase winds throughout the Gulf an Kodiak Island region into
Tuesday. This system will remain far enough south of the Mainland
bringing clearing skies, and offshore flow to most areas through
Tuesday. The Gulf Coast will likely see gusty outflow winds from
this system, however without a strong high pressure over the
mainland these are not expected to be significant.

By the middle of next week model agreement begins to diminish with
the details, but there is generally good confidence that a broad
trough will setup somewhere over the Bering with weak ridging over
the Mainland. This pattern brings continued active weather to the
Bering Sea, Aleutians, and possibly into the southwest Mainland.
Ridging would then bring generally quiet weather to most of the
mainland to the east of the Alaska Range.
