Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
427 PM AKST Tue Nov 13 2018

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
A weakening north moving front which brought strong winds and rain
to the Gulf and mixed precipitation to western Alaska is still
producing a little light rain over the northern Susitna Valley.
Cloud breaks developed across Southcentral with frontal passage
though a few showers continue across the Gulf Coast. A trough
along with the onset of easterly winds brought renewed
rain/showers to Kodiak Island. A weakening low south of Cold Bay
is drifting south. The pinch in the pressure gradient between this
low and ridge over eastern Russia is producing strong northerly
winds across the eastern/central Bering Sea/Aleutians. Rain was
located over the AK Pen with showers over the Aleutians.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Models are in generally good agreement through Thursday.
Differences creep in Thursday night and Friday between model
solutions in the upper levels and progression of the surface front
heading north toward the southern Mainland The EC appears to be
the slowest pushing moisture north with the front.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...VFR conditions and light winds are most likely. There is
however a chance that some shallow ground fog could develop near
the airport complex Wednesday morning. Due to uncertainty, VCFG
was utilized in the TAF.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
A ridge builds across the Alcan border, bringing drier conditions
across Southcentral through Thursday. Patchy fog will be the main
weather challenge over the next two nights as temperature
inversions steepen overnight while surface temperatures drop close
to dew point values. A weak boundary across the northern Susitna
Valley supports areas of fog tonight. Offshore flow develops
across the southern mainland as the ridge builds and low pressure
dominates over the gulf...expect gusty conditions at times for
gap locations along the coasts. Across the Gulf, a front along the
southern waters stalls this evening, bringing rain to Kodiak Island
before diminishing Wednesday morning. Isolated thunderstorms are
possible around the core of the low as it tracks across the southern
waters tonight.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
After the most recent storm cycle, the weather will remain quiet
for the next couple of days. In comparison, as offshore flow
keeps the mainland dry. Combined with weak upper ridging, temps
will cool back down, especially in valleys. The only threat for
precip will be over the Kuskokwim Delta tonight where a small
deformation band associated with the once strong warm front
remains. Otherwise, expect some areas of fog in low lying
valleys, but the normal fog capital of the Kuskokwim Delta should
remain free for the next couple days given the dry and strong
offshore flow.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
The pressure gradient remains tight enough to support strong 30
knot northerly winds over a large part of the Bering Sea along
with some areas of rain/snow showers. The low over the Alaska
Peninsula will weaken and shift east with a new low center forming
underneath an upper low over the central Bering Sea. This will
begin to induce a south/southeasterly flow over the eastern Bering
Sea along with increasing chances for rain Thursday. Meanwhile,
over the western Bering, a warm front will move into the region
then quickly occlude and elongate, reaching gale force over the
Western Aleutians before it weakens.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)...
The long-term forecast begins Thursday night with an amplifying
upper-level ridge moving from the Gulf over the Alaska Peninsula.
Upstream, a negatively-tilted trough persists from the eastern
Bering south to the western Gulf while a second trough deepens
over the western Aleutians as a strengthening jet rounds its base.
Through the first half of the weekend, the longwave pattern
remains fairly progressive, with the leading ridge moving well
inland over Canada as the main trough axis settles along the west
coast of Alaska. Moving into early next week the eastward
progression of the trough slows as it anchors over the eastern
half of the state. Model agreement breaks down significantly after
Monday, especially with their respective solutions upstream of
the trough axis. The GFS is the more amplified solution, trying to
build a ridge over the Bering ahead of the next trough exiting
eastern Russia. The EC, on the other hand, keeps the pattern zonal
with an active jet south of the Aleutians and a broad low over
the Bering. The Canadian takes the middle ground with weak ridging
over the Bering quickly replaced by a trough. What this means is
that guidance in the medium and near long-term range (through the
weekend) remains in good agreement with a wet and active pattern
across much of the forecast area. Beyond that, there is some
agreement of a trough/ridge/trough setup from the western Bering
to the eastern Bering to the Gulf. But confidence on placement and
intensity of these features is slim to none.

At the surface, this translates to a low approaching Kodiak Island
late Thursday with a trough extending across the Bering keeping
things unsettled over Southwest Alaska. The low moves into the
northern Gulf with its occluded front draped across the
southcentral coast by early Friday. Farther west, a second surface
low slides across the Aleutians Thursday into Friday with its
occluded front nearing the southwest coast late Friday. A triple
point low is also expected to form south of the AKPEN late Friday,
moving into the western and northern Gulf through the weekend.
This will keep conditions quite wet an unsettled over much of the
mainland through the weekend with some drying likely for southwest
Alaska by late Monday into Tuesday as a weak surface ridge tries
to develop.
