Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
353 PM AKST Sun Nov 20 2016

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A broad upper trough extends from the Bering Sea to two upper
centers: one south of the eastern Aleutians/Ak Pen and another
south of Kodiak Island. The core of the polar jet pushes
southeast across the western Aleutians, rounding the base of the
trough between 40-45n, then flows east toward the NW coast of the
US. A secondary trough extends west to east across the
southern/central Mainland.

At the surface, a gale force low is evident south of Kodiak
Island with its frontal trough extending north toward the central
Gulf. Strong north to northeast gales are occurring across much
of the western Gulf. Gales should continue to spread north toward
the northern Gulf with the front this afternoon. Strengthening
pressure gradients across the southern Mainland will continue/increase
gap flows in favored locals. Showers are evident across much of
the Gulf and Gulf Coast this afternoon. Further west, Strong
northwest flow with cold advection was evident on the backside of
the trough across the western Aleutians. Widespread showers were
also observed over the Bearing Sea, Aleutians, and Ak Pen. Except
for a few spotty areas of low stratus, skies were generally fair
across the Southwest Mainland.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Models overall are in good synoptic agreement across the Bering
Sea through the short term (into Tuesday afternoon). Models across
the Gulf are in good agreement with the low south of Kodiak, but
differ on the positioning of the next center moving in from the
southeast on Monday night. The 12z GFS/18z NAM seem to have the
best handle on this feature.

&&

.AVIATION...

PANC...VFR conditions and light winds are expected into Monday
evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The upper low over the Susitna valley pushes further into the
interior and weakens, and the North pacific low South of Kodiak
tracks southeast tonight through Monday Morning. This will cause
the widespread showers over much of the Gulf and Southern Cook
Inlet region, as well as Prince William Sound, to begin to
tapering off from North to South by Monday afternoon. Dry and
clear conditions over portions of the Southcentral interior will
remain in place through Tuesday, with the exception of a few
Flurries or Isolated light snow showers for Anchorage and the
Matanuska Valley tonight into tomorrow morning. As the next front
slowly tracks northward through the Gulf and stalls over the
Northern Gulf early Monday morning, the Eastern Kenai and Kodiak
Island will take the brunt of the precipitation through Monday
afternoon. Whereas on the lee side of the mountains, areas like
Anchorage and the Western Kenai will see more of a downsloping
effect and less precipitation.

Gusty outflow winds will persist through Tuesday for the
Northeastern Prince William Sound area, as the gradient along the
Northern Gulf coast remains tight between high pressure building over
the mainland and low pressure over the Gulf. Gusty Northerly flow
over the Susitna Valley and Matanuska Valley will begin to taper
off overnight tonight, as the gradient begins to slacken as the
front retreats back to the Northern Gulf.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)...
The warm occlusion over the far western Gulf will push westward
across the Aleutian/Alaska Ranges Tonight through Monday Morning.
Thus, expect light snow to spread to areas along the west side of
the mountains. The front will quickly stall and dissipate as it
runs into an upper trough sitting along the Southwest Coastal
region, though there is some uncertainty in how far west the
precip and clouds will extend. Meanwhile, a weak short-wave over
the far northern Bering Sea will drop southeastward into the
Kuskokwim Delta bringing a surge of arctic air with it. Have gone
more pessimistic with cloud cover as this moves in later Tonight
and also introduced a chance of snow to the forecast. The best
chance for snow will be along the immediate coast as cold air
moves over open waters leading to development of showers.

As has been the case with the recent storm track, the next storm
crossing the Bering Sea will pass south of Bristol Bay with just
a chance of precip along the northern periphery Tuesday/Tuesday
Night. Otherwise, generally cold and dry weather with occasional
gusty winds will remain the norm for most of Southwest Alaska as
we head through the first half of the week.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3)...
Upper level forcing for strong winds along the Alaska Peninsula
Tonight through Monday looks more impressive than it has, with a
short-wave ridge dropping through the area behind the exiting low
south of Kodiak. This will provide strong synoptic scale subsidence
and static stability in the mid levels helping to trap and force
downward strong winds. Meanwhile, the low levels are very
favorable for strong gusty gap winds with tight pressure gradients
and instability along with some cold air advection (though on the
weak side). Therefore, have increased winds along the Alaska
Peninsula, especially through bays and passes and extending south
of the Peninsula.

A strong, nearly zonal jet will maintain active weather across the
region, with the next system rapidly cross the Bering and Aleutians
Tonight through Tuesday. With a particularly strong jet (aided by
cold air advection) moving in behind the frontal system have upped
winds to storm force along the Western Aleutians Monday Night
through Tuesday. Yet another large deep storm system will enter
from the west mid-week as the parade continues.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
The jet stream continues to remain in a zonal flow along the
Aleutian Chain as it moves farther eastward before digging into
the base of the longwave trough positioned along the Northwestern
coastline near Washington State. This synoptic pattern will keep
the storm track south of the Southwest/Southcentral region
heading into next weekend. While the Bering/Aleutians receive a
showery weather regime as a storm force low tracks into the
Western Aleutians/Bering by Tuesday. The associated weather front
with this system tracks becomes elongated from a west to east
orientation in the Bering as it falls apart by Wednesday. By late
Wednesday afternoon the next storm force low moves into the
Kamchatka Peninsula with associated weather front moving through
the Western Aleutians. The front tracks on same path as previous,
except this time a wave develops with a surface low developing in
the eastern Bering by Friday. This system tracks across the Alaska
Peninsula into the northern Gulf by Saturday. This results in the
majority of the precipitation to occur along the northern Gulf,
coastal communities. Look for the Southwest/Southcentral regions
to remain in offshore flow with the coldest temperatures to remain
in the Copper River Basin, and the Lower Kuskokwim Valley through
this week. The models are in decent agreement with the track of
these synoptic systems, but have discrepancies in the placement of
the surface lows. Therefore, the forecast confidence remains
average as we head into next weekend.
