Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 434 AM AKST Wed Nov 15 2017 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... A subtle pattern change is underway across the southern mainland this morning as the stout upper level ridge over the eastern Bering Sea makes slow eastward progress, with the ridge axis currently extending along the west coast of Alaska. The somewhat slower progression of the ridge has allowed gusty northerly winds to continue overnight across much of Southcentral AK and particularly through favored gap flow areas along the Gulf coast as dry offshore flow remains focused over the area. Winds are finally beginning to subside early this morning over the Cook Inlet region as the best upper level support moves off to the east, however these winds should continue through late morning for other locations along the Gulf coast. Mostly clear skies continue to prevail from Bristol Bay eastward into the Copper River Basin owing to this continued offshore flow. Meanwhile, a weak front spreading light rain across much of the eastern Bering is beginning to push inland over the Kuskokwim Delta accompanied by mixed precipitation as a layer of warmer air aloft moves into the region from the south. Surface temperatures have been warm enough to support mostly rain along the coast, however freezing rain remains a concern for inland areas including Bethel this morning as the precipitation spreads east with colder air remaining in place at the surface. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... Models remain in excellent short term agreement as the ridge shifts eastward and the current outflow wind regime gives way to a brief shot of snow for Southcentral with the passage of a trough on Thursday. There are still minor differences in the timing of this feature, but the general consensus is for a brief window of light snow moving through Anchorage and surrounding areas Thursday morning. Continued to utilize Hi-Res guidance for the duration of the outflow winds today before shifting to more of a GFS based solution for the trough passage on Thursday. && .AVIATION... PANC...Light winds and VFR conditions will persist through Wednesday night. Light snow will spread into the terminal beginning Thursday morning with the arrival of an upper level trough. This will drop ceilings below 5000 ft, with a brief period of MVFR conditions possible after 15z Thu. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2...today and Thu)... Pressure gradients and favorable upper support will wane this morning and allow strong offshore flow to weaken along the North Coast. A weather front moving moving east tonight and Thursday will bring a snow to Southcentral beginning Thursday morning. Snow totals should be on the light side in most areas. Although the frontal progression has slowed some, the brunt of the snow should end across the western Kenai Peninsula, Anchorage Bowl, and Mat-Su Valleys by the mid afternoon hours. Cold advection behind this front will bring another round of outflow and gap flows Thursday night. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... The main challenges in the short range forecast are gusty winds and precipitation as two fronts moves across the region. The first front currently along the Kuskokwim Delta coast is expected to slowly progress east today. Models previously projected that this system would be fairly organized as the associated upper low was progged to dive southeast. The most recent runs between all of the models are now trending toward the upper level low shearing apart as the next ridge amplifies across the central Bering. This essentially brings a less dynamic system across the southwestern region with an upper level shortwave accompanied by a weak surface trough. To account for these latest trends, the front was slowed down with the morning package and snow amounts were slightly lowered. The front still might not progress as expected today due to the weaker push in the upper levels, however the next disturbance races to the southwest coast tonight which should kick the surface front into motion. Stronger northerly flow increases late Thursday into Friday as a jet max noses across the Bering Strait around another ridge which becomes highly amplified over the Central Bering. The ridge brings a drier pattern into the weekend along with gusty northerly flow continuing across the region. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)... A front spreads rain across the eastern Bering and Alaska Peninsula through this afternoon and then slides inland tonight. Meanwhile, a ridge builds across the southwestern Bering this afternoon bringing gusty zonal flow along much of the western Bering as the pressure gradient is squeezed between this ridge and low pressure holding to the north. A strong disturbance rides along the western perimeter of the ridge this afternoon and is shunted north toward Kamchatka. Strong forcing from the disturbance around the ridge along with the upper jet amplifying toward the Bering strait will induce very gusty northerly flow across the eastern Bering and Alaska Peninsula Thursday afternoon into Friday. There is still uncertainty in the timing and location for the strongest winds and therefore mariners should continue to monitor this system for future updates. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)... Yet another outflow event will develop along the North Gulf Coast on Friday as an Eastern Gulf low intensifies and weak ridging begins to move through the Mainland from the Bering. Just ahead of this ridge, a shortwave will quickly push through the Southwest coast, bringing light accumulations to many areas of Thursday, which may also produce areas of blowing snow as gusty northwesterly winds quickly follow it. Certainty in the forecast then begins to quickly break down this weekend as significant spread in the track of a rapidly deepening low moves from the Bering into either the Gulf or North Pacific (depending on which model guidance you look at). The EC has been the most consistent with this low, bringing a rapidly deepening low into the central Gulf by Sunday with widespread snow and wind to the Southern Mainland. The GFS on the other hand was very sporadic overnight, but is beginning to becoming more consistent in a track much further to the south, providing only a glancing blow of winds to the gulf and little if any precipitation to the Southern Mainland. Due to this large spread in the low track and expected impacts, little if any change is being made to the extended forecast today awaiting better model consensus. This is a system that bears watching however, as trends in either direction will result in significant changes to the weekends forecast. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
