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 Jun 5, 4:49 AM AKDT, 11 hours earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 5, 4:49 AM AKDT, 11 hours before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 449 AM AKDT Tue Jun 5 2018 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... The inverted easterly wave responsible for producing widely scattered showers and thunderstorms from the Talkeetna Mountains west across the Alaska Range and into interior SW Alaska yesterday continues to push toward Bethel. Radar returns over the southwest highlight a band of showers situated between Dillingham and Aniak moving west toward the coast this morning. Conditions are mostly clear for much of the rest of southwest Alaska this morning; however, mid- and high-level clouds are on the increase from Anchorage east through Prince William Sound as the next upper-level easterly wave moves into southern Alaska. Some marine stratus is also lingering from the Barrens south to Kodiak with high pressure situated in the northern Gulf. Farther west, a broad cyclonic flow is keeping low stratus and scattered showers across the Aleutians and southern AKpen. A 552 dm ridge at 500 mb is providing some clearing for the eastern Bering and Bristol Bay this morning. This, however, is expected to be short-lived as the upper-level shortwave moves offshore later this morning. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... The models are in overall good agreement with the upper-level and surface synoptic features and with the timing of the next shortwave moving across Southcentral Alaska today. && .AVIATION... PANC...VFR conditions will persist through Wednesday morning. Light winds will continue through this morning. Gusty southeast winds will increase this afternoon and continue through the evening before diminishing Tuesday night. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... The next few days will be very similar as we are in a persistent due-east upper level flow pattern. This is due to upper level high pressure to the north and low pressure to the south. Embedded in this flow will be numerous short waves (also known locally as easterly waves) and the track and timing of these waves will be the main focus of the forecast the next few days. Models often struggle with these features more than a day out. In between the disturbances there will be some clearing and periods of sunshine. With the atmosphere in the Susitna Valley and Copper River Basin remaining unstable the next couple of days, the sunny periods will allow some additional heating which will increase the chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon and evenings. This morning there is an easterly wave that is moving to the west- southwest along the north Gulf coast. This feature has changed the flow enough to keep the threat of stratus moving into Cook Inlet quite low. While there is some cloud cover around 3000 ft near Kachemak Bay, the lower stratus (under 1000 ft) will not occur in Cook Inlet today and chances of it developing over the next few days are not very good either. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)... After a fairly decent coverage of thunderstorms yesterday, look for more of the same to continue over the next few days, as multiple disturbances aloft cross the region from east to west...mainly north of a Cape Newenham to Port Alsworth line. In fact, thunderstorms have recently developed just south and west of Bethel as one of these vort maxes interacted with a surface thermal boundary (likely the marine boundary that stalled inland) with a short-lived spike in reflectivity on the Bethel Doppler reflectivity and a sudden increase in lightning that was observed by various sensing networks. However, temporal and coverage limitations precluded updating the recently issued forecast package for this morning. That said, convective coverage looks to increase each day through the next 48 hours, mainly from mid afternoon through late evening. Early morning water vapor analysis shows our next disturbance currently moving into the Copper River Basin and northern Gulf. Models show the leading edge of ascent with this wave entering southwest Alaska during the latter half of the peak heating cycle. With abundant moisture in place and a stronger wave aloft, it's no surprise the models have increased instability parameters some. Soundings across the northern half of the region show SBCAPEs of 500 and 1200 J/kg with mid-level lapse rates around 7.5 deg. C/km and ~15 to 25 knots of bulk shear. This will allow for storms to not remain tied to the higher terrain with a general 20 mph movement to the west southwest expected. Additionally, with cloud tops possibly exceeded 30,000 feet while freezing levels are running in the 6500 to 7500 feet range, some of the heavier showers or thunderstorms may produce small hail and this was added to the grids for today. An even stronger wave is expected for Wednesday which will allow for renewed afternoon/evening convective development. Farther south for the Bristol Bay region and points south and eastward, instability and forcing will be weaker as this area is further removed from the surface thermal trough and disturbances traversing aloft. Thus, mainly showers is expected there. Another stronger wave looks to bring another increase in shower and thunderstorm coverage for Wednesday, before things potentially quiet down some on Thursday, depending on which model you believe. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days through 3)... As one wave departs the central Aleutian chain to the southeast, short-wave ridging aloft will build south from the Arctic sea through the central Bering and Aleutians over the next few days. The next area of concern will be an intensifying low that approaches the western portions of the chain by Thursday afternoon, with rainfall chances increasing as an associated surface front starts to impact the region. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7)... The long term forecast beginning Thursday night starts with a broad area of low pressure in the Gulf while an area of high pressure sits over the Bering Sea. Weak ridging/no-flow sits over most of mainland Alaska leading to a generally quiet pattern with the exception of diurnally driven convection over the higher terrain and more inland areas with the presence of a thermal trough. Weak shortwaves rotating east around the top of the Gulf low may cause a bit more widespread precipitation across southcentral and SW Alaska, especially along the Gulf Coast and Prince William Sound, Thursday night into Friday morning. Heading into the weekend, the Gulf low shifts southeast allowing ridging over the Bering to move east over the mainland bringing warmer and somewhat drier conditions, with above average temperatures likely. A low pressure system will skirt along the Aleutian chain but its eastward progression looks to be halted by high pressure to the east, keeping most of the southern mainland high and dry. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
