Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
437 PM AKDT Thu Jul 6 2017

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
The dominant weather feature this afternoon is the large upper
level low that is spinning south of the Gulf of Alaska. It is
with this low that shortwaves are readily evident on water vapor
imagery. The first is rotating across SE Alaska and is rounding
the Wrangalls this afternoon. This Easterly wave will bring the
first bout of precipitation to the region. The second wave, which
is also stronger, is rounding the base of the upper level low and
is anticipated to impact the region. This will keep the mutual
attraction of rain on the weekends continuing. At the surface this
afternoon Prince William Sound is socked in marine stratus with
the light easterly winds and weak ridging. Meanwhile across the
Anchorage region, puffy cumulus are noted on satellite imagery as
of the noon hour.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Synoptically speaking, models are in step with each other through
the weekend timeframe. Differences do not become readily apparent
until early next week. There are virtually no discernible
differences amongst guidance on the timing or intensity of a
surface low moving in the Gulf of Alaska this weekend. The same
can be said for a low and attendant front moving across the Bering
Sea/Aleutian Chain. In the short term, guidance agrees on the
time and location of evening showers but not completely with
convective showers/storms. An issue with convection is that
sometimes models struggle to adequately show the direct evolution
and movement of these storms. Higher resolution model guidance is
suggesting that parts of Anchorage may not see any rain tonight as
it clips the northern half of the city. Meanwhile, other guidance
shows anywhere from .1 to .2 inches of rain across the entire
city. Some of the noted differences into the weekend surround the
Sat/Sun timeframe and as to whether precip will not have a defined
back edge and will just linger. Model runs this afternoon were
the first to hint at that fact, leading to higher confidence to
rain ending early Sunday. Regardless, a higher confidence forecast
will continue through the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...VFR conditions will continue. Southeasterly Turnagain Arm
winds are expected to develop in the late afternoon/early evening
window. Shower chances increase overnight with VFR conditions
remaining.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
Showers will increase tonight as an easterly wave moves into
Southcentral Alaska. The atmosphere ahead of this easterly wave
is fairly unstable. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are
expected this evening mainly north of Anchorage, but a
thunderstorm or two may be possible in the interior of the Kenai
Peninsula. Fairly dry conditions are expected Friday afternoon
through Friday night with weak ridging. A few thunderstorms are
possible over the Talkeetna Mountains Friday afternoon and
evening. A fairly strong and moist easterly wave will push into
the Copper River Basin Saturday morning, and then move rapidly
westward during the day, reaching the Anchorage area by late
afternoon.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
High pressure over mainland Alaska continues to block the front
over the Bering through Friday keeping the majority of the rain
away from the area. However, Friday afternoon a shortwave from the
east will undercut the ridging and bring showers to the Lower and
Middle Kuskokwim Valleys. This will be short lived and should
diminish overnight Friday night.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
The stalled front over the eastern Bering is being reinforced by
another front that is pushing through the southern Bering and
is starting to merge with the first front. Even with the
reinforcement of the second front, the stalled front will still
be held up by high pressure over mainland Alaska bringing the
majority of its rain to the Eastern Aleutians and Alaska
Peninsula. The parent low for the second front is near the Western
Aleutians and is tracking east. It looks to make it to the
southern Bering on Saturday.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
Next week will begin with an easterly wave moving out of
Southcentral Alaska into Southwest mainland Alaska as it rotates
around the upper level low in the Gulf. Another wave is expected
to move into the Copper River Basin on Monday but how far
westward it will make it is uncertain as the upper level low will
be splitting with part going into British Columbia and the rest
being absorbed into a low moving out of the Bering Sea southwest
of the Gulf of Alaska.

After this low moves south of the Gulf a ridge will begin to build
over western Alaska and into the interior of the state. Models are
varying on the strength of the ridge with the GFS building in a
stronger and more pronounced feature than the ECMWF. If the GFS
verifies well there should be a warm and dry period through the
middle to late portion of next week. Should the ECMWF be closer,
the break will be less impressive.
Either solution should  significantly warm up and dry our
southwest mainland Alaska by the middle of next week so there is
higher confidence in that section of the forecast area.
Stratus and fog are likely to continue throughout most of the
Bering Sea next week under the ridge.
