Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
430 AM AKDT Sun Jul 16 2017

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
Mainland Alaska is currently dominated by a large closed upper
level high centered over the north slope which is bringing mostly
pleasant weather to interior parts of the state. To the west, a
closed upper low centered just west of the Norton Sound is
pulling north while a stronger low pressure system over Kamchatka
is pushing east into the Bering Sea. A surface front out ahead of
this low is currently moving across the Western Aleutians bringing
low clouds, rain, and fog to that area.

Further east, a weak surface low south of Kodiak is drifting east
as it fills. Increased low level moisture associated with this low
is leading to low stratus and patchy fog forming over southern
and western parts of the Kenai Peninsula. Extensive cloud cover is
present over most of the area this morning due to moisture
sliding in under the upper level ridge from systems to the east
and west.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Models are in good agreement with handling the large scale
features through the next three days, with just some minor
differences in the timing and location of the low pressure system
pushing in from the west. Thus, forecast confidence is high that
most of southcentral will see much cooler temperatures and rain by
Tuesday of next week. Models begin to diverge some with the
placement of the surface low that forms in the gulf after Tuesday,
with the GFS/EC keeping the low center south of Homer with the
NAM bringing the low a bit further north.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...Mainly VFR conditions are expected through the period
though MVFR ceilings may be present in the morning as low level
moisture trapped along the Chugach backbuilds over the terminal.
Patchy stratus with bases below 1000 ft is currently over the
Cook Inlet and may creep north during the morning but is not
expected to impact the terminal.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The next two days will be fairly similar to each other and then
the pattern change arrives. So for the short term there will be
the chance for some afternoon and evening showers with the only
threat for a thunderstorm in the Copper River Basin. Expect some
periods where there will be breaks in the clouds for inland areas.
Coastal regions as well as the southern Susitna Valley are at
risk for some low clouds and patchy fog today and
tomorrow...especially in the morning hours.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The cloudy and moist pattern will continue with increasing rain
changes through early next week. Light onshore flow and low clouds
will remain today before a weak front/disturbance approaches the
Kuskokwim Delta late this evening. Light rain will spread inland
in that area from west to east before falling apart once it
crosses the Kuskokwim Mountains. A stronger front and disturbance
will push onshore late Monday afternoon. The front will bring more
widespread rain as well as greater rain intensity, spreading from
west to east from Monday afternoon to early Tuesday morning. Once
the front passes on Tuesday a slightly cooler, still onshore flow
regime will be in place.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
A front and disturbance over the central Bering Sea will continue
to push eastward throughout the day today and onshore mainland
late tonight. In the warm-sector of the current surface low way
out west...some elevated instability is promoting a few lightning
strikes. Expect isolated thunderstorms from over the
western/central Bering today. A stronger jet and upper level low
pressure follows the first disturbance bringing more widespread
rain than the first and will push west to east across the Bering
Sea through Monday. The tailing edge of the front will parallel
the Chain leading to a longer period of steady rain through
Tuesday.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
A pattern change will be well underway across the southern
mainland as the extended period begins on Monday night, with a
deep upper low tracking rapidly eastward through the Bering and
beginning to impact the west coast of Alaska. A strong front will
sweep across Southwest AK through Tuesday morning, bringing
widespread stratiform rain to the Kuskokwim Delta/Valley and the
greater Bristol Bay region. Rain will then push across the AK
Range into Southcentral later on Tuesday, bringing a period of
cooler and cloudier conditions to the region through the middle of
the week. Models have begun to arrive at more of a consensus
regarding the evolution of the low beyond Wednesday as it
encounters an upper level ridge to the east over western Canada.
The low will initially stall along the coast before diving
southeastward into the Gulf on Thursday and remaining the
dominant feature in the pattern into next weekend. This will keep
most of the rain confined to the Gulf Coast region later in the
week as inland areas including Anchorage gradually trend back
towards a warmer regime characterized by diurnal shower activity.
Meanwhile, more benign cloudy conditions will settle over most of
the Bering region by midweek as high pressure builds overhead in
the wake of the low. Any precipitation will be largely confined to
the Aleutians as a few North Pacific disturbances clip the chain
over the course of the week.
