Northern Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fairbanks AK 415 AM AKST Wed Jan 10 2018 .DISCUSSION... Models...Good agreement in the short term. 10/00Z Solutions initialized well at the surface, with only minor differences when compared to the 10/06Z surface analysis. Will blend with the current database for most elements, making minor adjustments in the near term. Aloft...At 500 hpa...538 dam high 150 east of Wrangel Island this morning and will slowly rotate northeast to 300 nm northwest of Point Barrow by Thursday morning, and 400 nm north of Point Barrow by Friday morning. 522 dam low has moved over the Eastern Brooks Range and will move over Tanana by Thursday morning at 518 dam, then west over the Gulf of Anadyr by Friday morning at 512 dam. A trough will persist over the Brooks Range. Ridging will persist over the northeast Pacific and Gulf of Alaska. A 511 dam low 150 nm west of St Matthew Island with a shortwave extending east to Cape Romanzof will move northwest into Siberia and dissipate. A 502 dam low in the central Bering Sea will merge with a 495 dam low that will move south of the central Aleutians by Thursday morning and merge with a developing 495 dam low that will be 150 nm south of Nikolski. At 850 hpa...Temperatures relatively flat the next couple days, with only some weak warming in the Upper Yukon Flats, Fortymile Country, and along the AlCan border. Surface...Broad area of low pressure remains over the Bering Sea and the southwest mainland. 1038 mb high remains over the Yukon Territory with ridging extending north over the eastern Beaufort Sea and west along 75N in the Arctic, west over the south slopes of the Eastern Brooks Range, and west over the Copper River Basin with a 1023 mb high near Glennallen. Ridging over Canada will weaken the next couple days as the low pressure over the Bering Sea pushes north as a 958 mb low moves to 150 nm south of Nikolski Thursday morning, and 300 nm south of Kodiak Island by Friday morning. A 1023 mb high will develop over the Central Arctic Thursday morning, and move to the northeast Arctic by Friday morning at 1028 mb. Trough over the Arctic Coast this morning will persist into Saturday. Tight pressure gradient across the Eastern Brooks Range will weak this morning as ridging to the south weakens, then tighten back up Friday night with gusty gap winds returning. Tanana Valley Jet will weaken a bit today as the leeside troughing north of the Alaska Range weakens a bit today, then strengthen Thursday night with the gradient tightening back up. Gradient also remains relatively tight over the highlands to the north and east of Fairbanks. Tight pressure gradient over the Nulato Hills will persist. Arctic Coast and Brooks Range...Still getting some gusty winds in the Eastern Brooks Range this morning as the GOES IR at 10/1145Z indicates, but they will be diminishing this morning. High moving to the northeast Arctic Friday will start pinching the trough over the area, and strong winds will develop on the Eastern Arctic Coast, with strong gap wind developing in the Eastern Brooks Range as the high pressure over the south slopes strengthens. Expect some blowing snow issues east of Nuiqsut, and in the eastern Brooks Range, when the winds do kick up. Mostly clear over most of the area today, but NPP VIIRS SPoRT 24 hour Microphysics RGB at 10/1159Z shows stratus around a low level circulation north of Barrow that extends from Nuiqsut to Point Lay and northwest over the Arctic. GOES MVFR/IFR Probability Product at 10/1130Z indicates MVFR clouds over the same area, and observations have the stratus as low as 300 ft. West Coast and Western Interior...Mostly Clear, some gusty winds to 40 mph, mainly in the Nulato Hills, channeled areas, and downslope off the Central Brooks Range north of Ambler. Temperatures trending slightly cooler through Friday morning. Central and Eastern Interior...Mostly clear with some high clouds mainly east of Fairbanks moving south across the area today. A upper level low over the Brooks Range will move west over the Yukon River Basin, and this may help develops some clouds north of Fairbanks. Winds continue to be strong over the higher terrain, but will settle down some today, so expect some cooler daytime temperatures with the lighter winds. The winds in the hills will increase tonight with gusts around 40 mph expected over the Ray and White Mountains, and the Upper Chena and Upper Salcha Basins. The Tanana Valley Jet will settle down today as well, then come back stronger Thursday through Saturday with gusts around 50 mph. Cold air over the area will start retreating back into Canada, but with the winds diminishing today, expect as cold or colder temperatures today and tonight for most areas. && Coastal Hazards for days 3 and 4...None. && Extended Forecast for days 4 to 7...Flow becoming southwest over the area and that will allow the ridging over Canada to build back in to the interior. No precipitation expected. Cooler temperatures in the Eastern Interior, and gusty winds returning to the uplands and Upper Tanana Valley. A blend of the solutions is likely the best place to start. && .AFG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Wind Advisory for AKZ217-AKZ223. Wind Chill Advisory for AKZ223. Heavy Freezing Spray Warning for PKZ210. Small Craft Advisory for PKZ210. && SDB JAN 18
