Area forecast discussion, Aug 26, 5:00 AM AKDT, 10 hours 56 minutes before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 500 AM AKDT Sun Aug 26 2018 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... A vertically stacked low over the Bering continues to move northeastward toward Norton Sound. This low, coupled with a large upper level high over the Gulf, has created strong southwest flow aloft over the eastern Aleutians and AKPEN. Moisture continues to stream into the southwestern part of the state this morning. As a result, radar imagery shows rain falling across the Bristol Bay coast, northern AKPEN, and southern parts of the Kenai Peninsula. The leading edge of the front associated with the Bering low has pushed eastward into the central Gulf, allowing for rain showers fill in behind it. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... Model solutions remain in generally good agreement through the next 24 hours. Differences arise with the timing of a surface low developing over the AKPEN Mon morning and quickly moving into the Gulf by Mon night. Currently, the NAM has the fastest solution, while the GFS and EC both show a more westerly position with the location of the low by Mon night. The GFS/EC solution was preferred at this time due to recent run to run inconsistencies with the NAM. && .AVIATION... A front moving north this morning will bring rain for a majority of the day today. Ceilings will likely go MVFR with rain earlier in the morning before lifting to VFR as the Turnagain Arm winds and downsloping kick in. Gusty southeasterly winds are expected to impact the terminal later this morning through this evening as the low position and track are favorable for a northward bend of the Turnagain Arm jet into the Anchorage Bowl. Expect strong crosswinds on the 07 runway for most of the afternoon/evening hours. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Today through Tuesday)... Rainfall from a low pressure system centered over the Eastern Bering will spread northward into Southcentral this morning, bringing widespread rains to most areas by this afternoon. With deep southwesterly flow, the heaviest rainfall amounts are expected along the Talkeetna Mountains where strong orographic lift will be present for much of the day. This will also allow for continued rainfall in the lee of the Chugach even as strong winds along Turnagain Arm and the Knik River Valley spread into the Anchorage Bowl and Matanuska Valley this afternoon. While these winds are not expected to be strong, the usual windy areas along the south/west Anchorage as well as the hillside will see gusts from 30-40mph this afternoon and early evening. Rainfall will then diminish from west-east late tonight as the front makes landfall, however the pressure gradient from the weakening low as it moves through the interior will keep gusty southerly winds in the area into Monday morning. Fortunately for those looking for a break from the persistent rains over Southcentral, the next low that develops in the Gulf on Monday will remain well south of the Mainland. This will allow for clearing skies for most areas beginning Monday afternoon and persisting through Tuesday as much drier offshore flow develops behind the Gulf low. Expect outflow winds in the usual areas along the North Gulf Coast on Tuesday, but with very little in the way of available cold air to work with these are not expected to be significant. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... A low just south of Saint Matthew Island will continue its trek northeast towards Norton Sound today. A warm front associated with this system is currently moving across Bristol bay and will continue to push into the interior of Southwest Alaska today. As this feature moves north, the widespread rainfall over the Southwest will taper off and become more showery behind the now occluded front. With the low north of the region on Monday, residual moisture from the cyclonic flow will produce some scattered shower activity, especially during the afternoon and evening hours and over the higher terrain when instability increases slightly due to daytime heating. A secondary low skirting the southern coast of the AKpen may produce some light rain and gusty southwesterly winds for region overnight Sunday night through Monday morning before the low moves across Kodiak Island and into the western Gulf. High pressure over the Bering then builds across the region for Monday night and Tuesday. This will produce a gradual drying trend progressing from the AKpen into the Southwest Mainland. Patchy valley fog is also possible during the overnight Monday into Tuesday morning under this ridge. a product of radiational cooling due to the clearing conditions combined with saturated grounds from the recent rains. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)... Low pressure moving into the northern Bering this morning will continue to advance towards Norton Sound. Its trailing cold front, which had been making some eastward progress across the central Aleutians last night, is now becoming stationary just west of Dutch Harbor this morning. This will keep clouds and scattered showers in the picture from the eastern Aleutians north into the eastern Bering through Sunday afternoon. A secondary low will form well south of the Aleutians along this boundary today and began to push northeast toward the AKpen. This will bring a second round of precipitation and gusty southwest winds across the southern coast of the AKpen for late Sunday into the first half of Monday before the ridge upstream moves east and kicks the low out into the western Gulf. Farther west, the aforementioned ridge will dominate the western and central Bering and Aleutians. The ridge axis will slide east through the forecast period, reaching the eastern Aleutians by Monday. Areas of low stratus, patchy fog, and drizzle are likely across the Bering as moisture continues to rotate around the northern half of the ridge. Clearer and drier conditions should take hold across the central and eastern Bering Sunday afternoon through Monday as drier air advects in along the southern flank of the ridge. Clouds will return to the western and central Aleutians beginning Monday night, however, as a low southwest of Attu and a triple-point low south of Adak begin to move north towards the Aleutian Chain. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)... By Tuesday, ridging over Southwest Alaska will have pushed much of the precipitation out of Southern Alaska for a brief drier midweek break. The upper level ridge will amplify slightly Tuesday night as a strong north Pacific low crosses the western Aleutians and tracks into the Bering. The ridge axis will shift east over Southcentral Alaska on Wednesday as the frontal system accompanying the Bering low approaches the Kuskokwim Delta coast. The front will push inland over Southwest Wednesday evening and then be followed by the associated upper level trough on Thursday.
