Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
420 PM AKST Wed Jan 11 2017

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
The blocking upper ridge over the Gulf flattened some with an upper
waving moves east across the mainland. Stable boundary layer conditions
today translated into areas of fog across the Anchorage Bowl, Knik
Arm, Turnagain arm, and the western Kenai. Sat imagery showed stratus
spreading across the Southwest Alaska. Fairly widespread stratus was
evident across the Bering Sea. Gusty easterly winds associated with
a weak frontal boundary was observed over the central and western
Aleutians.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION (through Friday afternoon)... Models overall
continue to be in good synoptic agreement. The model trend has
been to back the upper trough further west on Friday and pulling
the moisture and surface low with it. This would lead toward
increased chances of snow making west of the Chugach. So confidence
is increasing for measurable snow Friday afternoon/evening.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...IFR/LIFR conditions continue with only brief breaks with
higher ceilings and visibilities at least through Thursday
afternoon. Looks like some colder air along with a little wind
will help dissipate the fog and rise ceilings and visibilities
Thursday night.

&&

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

A stationary weather pattern remains in place through Thursday,
then the pattern shifts into an active pattern as low pressure
systems from the Arctic and North Pacific move toward the southern
mainland. The main challenge through Friday is precipitation along
the front which moves to Kodiak Island and the eastern Kenai
Thursday night and to the north Gulf coast on Friday.

For tonight, areas of fog along the inlet spread inland with low
visibilities less than one quarter mile at times. Elsewhere
across the mainland, temperatures are expected to drop slightly
colder tonight due to weak cold air advection across the Alaska
Range. Foggy conditions are expected to improve late Thursday as
the next low pressure system moves up from the North pacific,
increasing the flow across the region and mixing out the fog. Rain
and snow develops along the front as it moves through the gulf on
Friday. Kodiak Island should stay cold enough to remain snow with
diminishing conditions as the front moves north during the late afternoon.
There is still uncertainty on the timing of this front, with the
progression expected to reach the eastern Kenai mid morning and to
the northern coast during the early afternoon. The front looks on
track to bring snow to the Anchorage bowl and Matanuska Valley by
Friday afternoon.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
Cold air will continue to push into southwest Alaska through
Friday as an upper level trough digs into the area. A stratus deck
is accompanying the initial surge of cold air, which should break
up on Thursday. Some fog near Bristol bay should clear out tonight
as the offshore flow increases.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
High pressure over the Bering Sea will give way to cyclonic flow
Thursday night and Friday as the upper trough pushes into the
area. This will also increase the winds as a cold advection
pattern develops. The low south of the Aleutians will gradually
drift westward through Thursday night, then move south and
dissipate on Friday. By Friday scattered snow showers will have
spread across almost the entire Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
Once snowfall from the gulf low makes landfall and dissipates on
Saturday morning, there remains good confidence that very cold
air will descend into the Southwest Mainland and Bering Sea were
it will continue through the weekend into early next week. What is
much less certain is how much of this cold air will reach
Southcentral as the arctic trough sets up to the west. The models
have all trended significantly stronger and further west with a
rapidly developing low moving into the Gulf late Sunday-Monday,
but with horrible agreement its exact track and intensity. The
result of this is a large amount of uncertainty in whether this
system will bring Southcentral temperatures to near normal (EC),
rise well above normal (GFS), or fall well below (GEM) throughout on
Monday. After coordination with WPC, the long term forecast
generally favors the EC and ensemble means, resulting in a
compromise approach with slightly warmer temperatures with another
chance of precipitation early next week. In general, forecast
confidence is highest to the west of the Alaska Range, with much
lower confidence to the east based on this large model
disagreement.
