What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Jul 17, 4:40 AM AKDT, 11 hours 24 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 17, 4:40 AM AKDT, 11 hours 24 minutes before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
440 AM AKDT Mon Jul 17 2017

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A large upper level ridge extending through northern and eastern
Alaska is the dominant feature across most of mainland Alaska this
morning. A longwave ridge containing two closed lows is present
over the Bering. The first low is currently moving north into the
Arctic Ocean with its trailing surface trough bringing areas of
rain to the western Alaska coast. A second and stronger low is
located in the western Bering north of the Aleutians and moving
east. Interestingly, convection has formed along an upper level
shortwave trough out ahead of the low over the central Bering,
with numerous lightning strikes seen on the GLD lightning network.
A weak upper level short wave trough embedded within the backside
of the mainland ridge is currently moving NE over the Cook Inlet
and bringing increased cloudiness to the Kenai Peninsula and the
Anchorage Bowl. Strong subsidence under the ridge with moist low
levels has led to stratus and some patchy areas of fog for coastal
areas across southcentral this morning.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Models show very good agreement regarding key features in the
longwave pattern through early next week as the dominant pattern
shifts from an upper level ridge to an upper level trough over
western and central Alaska. Some discrepancies arise towards the
middle of the week as a surface low forms near Kodiak, with
differences affecting the orientation of the pressure gradient and
the amount of downsloping due to southeasterly flow. The newest
model runs have begun to show better agreement with the location
of this low so confidence is high that there will be a significant
rain event impacting the Prince William sound Tuesday afternoon
through Wednesday, with steady rain making it into the Anchorage
area during this time as well.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...A weak upper level system is advecting in low level
moisture from the southwest leading to intermittent MVFR ceilings
this morning. As the system moves out VFR conditions will prevail
through the rest of the period.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The moist south to southwest flow will continue today. A weak
upper level trough moving across northern Cook Inlet can be seen
on IR satellite and has enhanced the marine stratus behind it.
There may be some periods of drizzle during the morning in the
Anchorage area due to this. Otherwise the day will be very much
like yesterday for most of the area. Things begin to change
tonight as a front moves into the western Gulf of Alaska and Cook
Inlet. This will usher in rain for most of the area from west to
east beginning overnight tonight and persisting into Tuesday or
Tuesday night. The only area that will escape most of the
precipitation will be the Copper River Basin which only has a
chance of rain. Winds along the north Gulf coast will also
increase to Small Craft Advisory levels with this front. Winds
look to remain under Gale force but it is not out of the question
for a barrier jet to develop along the southern Kenai Peninsula
and produce some areas of Gale force winds on Wednesday.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
The warm front from the system out over the Bering is pushing
through southwest Alaska spreading rain from the coastal areas
inland. This evening the cold front will push in bringing heavier
rain to the area overnight. The rain will diminish somewhat on
Tuesday but will linger into mid week. Strong southerly winds
will accompany the rain with the strongest winds this evening and
tonight.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
The system over the western Bering is bringing rain to much of the
Bering and Aleutians with its warm front pushing through the
eastern Bering into southwest Alaska and its cold front pushing
through the Central Aleutians. A shortwave rotating around the
main low has also kicked up some thunderstorms in the southern
Bering and as this shortwave tracks north into the central
Bering more thunderstorms are likely to accompany it. As the
parent low pushes east through Tuesday much of the heavier rain
will move off to the east as well. The main exception will be a
stationary boundary that will be draped over the Central
Aleutians.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
Forecast thinking is largely unchanged in the long term as an
upper low moving from the Y-K Delta region to the Gulf of Alaska
during the middle of the week looks to remain the dominant weather
feature into the latter half of the week. The southern mainland
will be in the midst of a relatively short lived cool and rainy
pattern Tuesday night into Wednesday as the low tracks along the
southwest coast and an associated front moves through Southcentral
AK. Precipitation chances will remain higher along the North Gulf
coast through the end of the week as the low remains over the
southern Gulf. For inland areas and Southwest AK, Thursday should
mark the beginning of an improving trend as temperatures rebound
to near or slightly above normal seasonal values and a diurnally
driven shower activity once again becomes the primary mode of
precipitation. Meanwhile, the Bering will settle into a more
benign cloudy pattern in the wake of the low as high pressure
builds over the region through the end of the week. The exception
will be along portions of the Aleutian chain, where another North
Pacific disturbance will bring an increased chance of rain on
Thursday.

...Glacial dammed lake release at Hidden or Erie Lake...

A local report indicates that water on the Kennicott River has
risen quickly and may be caused by a glacier dammed lake release
at Hidden or Erie Lake. Water levels are now dropping and
expected to continue dropping until additional rainfall reaches
the area.

Expected impacts:
Rapid rises in water levels are still possible on downstream
tributaries including the Copper River at Chitina. All persons
with interests near the river or downstream should monitor the
water levels over the next several days and be aware of possible
shore erosion.
