What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this winter storm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Fairbanks, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this winter storm warning went out at Dec 10, 5:32 AM AKST, 56 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 10, 5:32 AM AKST, 56 minutes before
Northern Alaska Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED National Weather Service Fairbanks AK 532 AM AKST Sun Dec 10 2017 .SYNOPSIS... Aloft... A high amplitude long wave pattern consisting of a deep trough extending from the Sea of Okhotsk across the Northern Pacific to the Gulf of Alaska with a strong ridge over Western Canada and Eastern Alaska will persist through late this week with the ridge breaking down next weekend. This means that the strong southerly flow pattern will continue to push warm moist air north over Northern Alaska through late this week, then cooling next weekend. A series of strong short wave will move north in this flow. These waves will bring a series of strong chinook winds to the southern Interior near the Alaska Range, along with a mix of rain, snow and freezing rain to the southern Interior. Will see Snow in the Northern Interior, far western Interior, along the West Coast and North Slope with each wave. Will address the weather with each wave with its associated surface feature below. Surface... High pressure north of the Arctic Coast of Alaska will persist through Tue. A weakening occluded front that lies from the Bering Strait to Point Hope to Barter Island will dissipate tonight. Scattered snow showers along and north of this front will diminish to flurries. Northeast winds 15-25 kt along with patchy fog and blowing snow along the Arctic Coast will persist into tonight. An occluded front stretching from Cook Inlet to Eagle will move to Bethel to Galena to Old Crow by 3pm Sun, to Nunivak Island to Shishmaref to Barter Island by 3am Mon, then dissipating Mon as a second front merges with it. Expect 1-2 inches of snow with this front as it moves northwest, excepting the chinook shadow of the Alaska Range in the southern Interior where most precip will be downsloped out, but there will be a chance of rain, freezing rain as freezing levels rise to near 4000 feet in the southern Interior. A frontal wave in the northeast Pacific will move to near King Salmon as a 967 mb low by 3am Mon, to the Yukon Delta as a 984 mb low by 3pm Mon, to near Shishmaref as a 995 mb low by 3am Tue, and near the Bering Strait as a 996 mb low by 3pm Tue. An occluded front stretching east from this front will move to King Salmon to Shageluk to Eagle by 3am Mon, to The Yukon Delta to a 996 mb low near Barter Island by 3pm Mon, to Shishmaref to Point Lay to Barter Island by 3am Tue then weakening in place Tue. Expect another batch of strong winds over the Alaska Range with this front along with a chance of rain, snow and freezing rain in the southern Interior, while there is 2-4 inches of snow in the northern and far western Interior. Zones 217-218 and 219 will see up to 8 inches of snow. Also expect northeast widns 20-30kt just ahead of the front with blowing snow in the northern and western Interior and West coast. This will lead to a winter storm warning for zones 217 218 219 and 213, and winter weather advisory for zones 207 208 216. Chinook winds through Alaska Range are now becoming strong, then will decrease some this afternoon as the front and short wave move north. Chinook winds will increase again tonight and continue into Mon afternoon and will likely add high wind warning for zones 223 225 and extend 226 through Mon pm. There is a possibility of high winds zones 224 Dot Lake to Tanancross about Mon am as the winds aloft turn southwest, but still uncertain on this. && .DISCUSSION... Models initialize fairly well and show similar solutions through 3am Tue then from 3pm Tue on start to see significant differences between GFS and ECMF and among GFS ensemble members in short wave locations and depth, but long wave pattern remains similar. Will use the GFS for the most part through 3am Tue, then moves towards the ECMF solution with a blend of ensembles from Tue after noon on. Coastal Hazard Potential Days 3 and 4... Elevated surf and possible freezing spray north side of Little Diomede and St Lawrence Islands tonight into Mon night due to strong north winds cold temperatures. Expect Blizzard these locations to mitigate ice build up from freezing spray as snow will drift over many objects. && .AFG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Winter Weather Advisory for AKZ201-AKZ202-AKZ203-AKZ204- AKZ207-AKZ208-AKZ216. Winter Storm Warning for AKZ213-AKZ217-AKZ218-AKZ219. High Wind Warning for AKZ223-AKZ225-AKZ226.
