Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 414 PM AKDT Fri Jul 13 2018 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... The main feature aloft remains the double barrel low over the Bering Sea with one center over the dateline and the other east of the Pribilof Islands. This is supporting a potent (for summertime) storm at the surface just east of the Pribilof Islands and its associated front that is pushing in along the Bering Sea Coast. This front has produced storm force gusts along the Bering Sea coast today. A strong 100-120 KT jet is rounding the base of the upper trough of this system resulting in intensification of it and steering it into the Gulf of Alaska. The front has crossed Kodiak Island heading to the North Gulf Coast bringing a band of stronger wind as well as rain as evidenced by the radar returns today to the outer coast of the Kenai Peninsula and across southern Cook Inlet. Another storm is south of the western Aleutians pushing a front to the Shemya region with a triple point low forming in the vicinity of Amchitka. The triple point low is tracking along the jet along and south of the Aleutians. This is spreading the clouds shield along the Aleutians. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... The models are is good agreement with respect to the synoptic scale. They have converged on a solution bringing the low that is forming along the front near Kodiak east toward Middleton Island. The models remain in agreement through the weekend racing the triple point Aleutian low east along the Aleutians into the Gulf of Alaska Sunday as the EC has come around to the GFS and NAM solutions. && .AVIATION... VFR conditions remain on tap through the forecast period. Southeast wind will be an issue into the evening. By around 09Z the down valley flow will nudge the Turnagain Arm wind to the west and off the airfield. The lighter north wind at the surface will be under the strong SE wind aloft across the Chugach and may bring in LLWS after 09Z through around 18Z, but will likely be a little above the 2000 ft threshold for inclusion in the TAF. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... A strong upper level short-wave trough will dig eastward across the northern Gulf tonight through early Saturday, pushing an occluded front onshore across the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound. The heaviest rain will be in the Prince William Sound area right ahead of the short-wave. Strong southeasterly flow ahead of the surface front will result in mostly dry conditions tonight for the usual areas (western Kenai Peninsula, Anchorage, Matanuska Valley) - though there may be some sprinkles or very light rain late this afternoon or early evening before downsloping really strengthens. The upper trough will lift northward over Southcentral Alaska on Saturday. With increased instability aloft and weakening downslope flow looks like a cool, cloudy, and showery day for most of the region. Meanwhile, another short-wave trough back over the Bering Sea will dig southeastward on Saturday, with a weak surface low passing just south of Kodiak Island then to the northeastern Gulf on Sunday. This will spread another round of rain from Kodiak on Saturday to eastern Prince William Sound and the southeastern Copper River Basin Saturday night and Sunday. Mostly cloudy skies and scattered convection will persist on the back side of this low across the remainder of Southcentral. A drying trend will ensure Sunday night as the upper trough exits to the east. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... An elongated area of low pressure spanning the eastern Bering Sea is the primary weather maker for tonight and into this weekend. An attendant front to this low progressed across the AKPEN this morning and into Southwest Alaska. Shower activity that brought nearly a quarter inch of rain will slowly weaken, but not entirely diminish overnight. The surface low will drift across the mainland and will still cause sporadic shower activity through Saturday afternoon. Guidance was hinting at the possibility of a few lightning strikes into the early afternoon tomorrow near King Salmon and Dillingham, but that will depend on how clear the skies can get and whether or not the atmosphere truly destabilizes. At this point, confidence is low and will keep any mention out of the going forecast as cloudcover looks to be predominant. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)... The aforementioned elongated low will exit the Bering Sea as an upper level trough dives in from the Kamchatka Peninsula and merges with a weak wave moving in from the North Pacific. Behind both of these systems is ridging that will build in and stabilize the region through the beginning of the week. Winds across the area will be below small craft levels after tomorrow afternoon and through the weekend. Chances showers diminish once the trough passes. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)... The models continue to support the concept of a progressive pattern in the long-term period which begins Monday evening. The forecast period commences with a longwave trough spanning from the Beaufort Sea to the Gulf of Alaska and ridging over the Central Aleutians and the Pribilof Islands. By Tuesday, both the GFS and the ECMWF depict a second trough with a negative tilt shortwave moving into the Western Aleutians. This new disturbance will shift the ridge axis over Southcentral AK and Prince William Sound Wednesday. With ridging in place, anticipate widespread subsidence and a warming trend for the Anchorage Metro Area and the Mat-Su valleys midweek. A secondary impulse of energy will descend into the longwave trough over the Bering from the Arctic resulting in another round of cyclogenesis for Western Alaska and the AKPEN. The GFS and the ECMWF both depict an expansive precipitation shield by Wednesday for the Western portion of the state and the North Pacific, however the GFS is slightly quicker bringing the QPF up Cook Inlet on Thursday. Stay tuned for more details. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PUBLIC...None.
