Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
438 PM AKST Fri Jan 27 2017

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

There are several features impacting the weather over the southern
mainland and across the Bering Sea and Aleutian today. A large
upper level and surface low with a trough extends southeast across
the Alaska Peninsula to another surface and upper level low about
700 nm south of Kodiak island. Around the west side and south of
the Bering Sea low is the typical convective showery environment
with frequent showers transiting west to east across the Bering
Sea and Aleutians. A surface and upper level low is along the
North Gulf Coast pushing inland as it gradually dissipates to a
trough is spreading moisture across Prince William Sound and Southcentral
Alaska. This is maintaining the relatively warm showery weather
pattern across the region.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

The main challenge is the details and timing of the lows and
troughs embedded in the southerly and westerly flow of the main
upper low and long wave trough. The models are in generally good
agreement, though due to the smaller scale features having greater
impact, confidence in the timing and intensity and amount of
precipitation beyond the next 24 hours is low. The screaming
message is a continuation of the wet pattern through the weekend
into early next week for the entire Anchorage area of responsibility.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...VFR conditions are expected through late this afternoon.
The onset of snow will initially be light until the atmosphere
saturates thus mostly VFR conditions until early evening then
intermittent CIGS and VSBY dropping to MVFR through 06Z. Between
06Z to 12Z expect conditions to become predominantly MVFR for CIGS
and VSBY overnight.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2...Sat and Sun)...
The low that drove northward through the Copper River Basin this
morning has left plenty of moisture across Southcentral AK.
Meanwhile, a fairly deep trough remains centered over the west
coast. Showery precipitation will continue along the Gulf Coast
behind the front as onshore flow persists. The trough to the west
is providing enough lift across the southern tip of the Kenai
Peninsula and into Cook Inlet to create some light precipitation.
It is still warm enough along the coast that many places are
reporting rain. But further north towards Anchorage and the Glenn
Highway, it is falling as very light snow. Cold air that has made
its way all the way around the base of the trough from the
Northern Bering will filter into the Kenai Peninsula and towards
the Prince William Sound into Sat. This should allow precipitation
to change over to snow for all locations. It will also help to
create a bit more lift to keep the snow going through the
overnight with a couple of inches of accumulation possible from
Anchorage towards the Matanuska Valley.

On Saturday, another strong low over the Eastern Gulf of AK will
move quickly to the north. This will resupply moisture to the area
while create some gale-force winds across the Northern Gulf.
Meanwhile, the trough to the west will become negatively tilted
allowing even more cold air to spill over Cook Inlet. The result
will be a long duration light snow for many places from Anchorage
to the Prince William Sound up to the Parks Highway. There is the
possibility of some banded precipitation setting up with this
event. This means that snow amounts could vary quite a bit from
place to place. The highest amounts are currently expected closer
towards Eagle River up through Wasilla. The event will likely last
late into the night Sat along the Hillside where cold air
advection with upslope flow will wring out the last bit of the
moisture. Sunday should bring much quiet conditions across the
area as a shortwave ridge moves through. Another light snow event
will then set up for Sun night-Mon.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
An upper level low over the northern Bering will move a shortwave inland
across the Southwest tonight. Snow develops this evening across
Bristol Bay as an associated surface trough slides inland along
the wave. A brief period of blowing snow can be expected along
the coast tonight along this trough. The next organized front
slides to the Alaska Peninsula on Sunday morning spreading snow to
the southwest coast in the afternoon.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
An upper level low over the northern Bering initiating snow along
the northern waters, is pushed north later on Saturday as the
next strong front moves into the western Aleutians. This frontal
boundary makes eastward progress to the eastern Aleutians and
Pribilof Islands by Sunday morning. A warmer subtropical air mass
will change precipitation over to rain as the boundary moves
across the central and eastern Aleutians, with mixed precipitation
possible across the Pribilof Islands as the surface low center
races quickly to the northern Bering. Max gale southeasterly
winds will accompany the front with southwesterly winds in it's
wake.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...

A pair of troughs will affect the entire forecast area Sun night
into Mon. In the eastern domain, an eastward moving trough will
bring snow to eastern Prince William Sound before exiting the
region early Mon. In the west, a front associated with a Bering
trough will make a windy and snowy landfall over Southwest AK
beginning Sun night. Between these features will lie the western
flank of an upper ridge. A disturbance moving along this western
flank will bring another round of snow to Southcentral AK Mon
afternoon.

Beginning Mon night a second trough begins to consolidate over the
central Bering. The associated front will bring more snow as it
makes landfall over Southwest AK Tue. High pressure will then
build over much of the Bering, effectively cutting off most
precipitation through the end of the workweek. A front approaching
the western Bering on Wed will become essentially stationary and
bring strong wind to the western Aleutians Wed into Thu.

Over the eastern domain south to southwest flow consolidates over
the Gulf and a stream of moisture continues to aim at the Kenai
and Prince William Sound through Tue. This will bring snow to
those areas, with lesser amounts over the rest of the region.
Precipitation will taper off on Wed as high pressure builds across
mainland AK. Thu into Fri a strong gradient sets up along the
north Gulf coast, with significant outflow winds developing into
Fri.
