Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 427 AM AKST Tue Feb 12 2019 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... The polar jet is highly amplified over the North Pacific, mainland Alaska and the Eastern Pacific. The jet core is north of the Aleutian chain and trekking into the Kuskokwim Delta. The longwave pattern features a deep and broad trough from Eastern Russia to Japan and into the Bering. Meanwhile, there is an upper level ridge from the Central Pacific that bisects mainland Alaska and actually spans into the Yukon Territory, NW Territories and over some of the northern islands of Nunavut like Bathurst Island and Cornwallis Island. There is a baroclinic zone spanning from SW AK, across the AKPEN and into the north Pacific with a new wave developing along the frontal boundary southwest of Adak. Looking further down range there is another low pressure system east of Japan and a third low pressure system near Kamchatka over the Sea of Okhotsk. There is a menagerie of shortwaves from the Alaska Range to regions west of the International Dateline. On the ASCAT/advanced scatterometer both gale and storm force winds were detected over the Bering. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... The run to run continuity with the models has been excellent. Using ASCAT data for initialization purposes, both the GFS and ECMWF did well with the placement of the low in the Bering. The global models are in good agreement through 72 hrs with the placement of the synoptic features and the development of new low east of Japan over the Kuroshio Current. This pattern where the longwave trough has dominated the Western/Central Bering and NW Pacific has been going on for weeks now. The persistence of this pattern most likely has been influencing the performance of the global models. The one area of concern is the potential development of fog over Southcentral. Typically, what the models struggle with is the placement of fog in the region. && .AVIATION... PANC... As of 1153z or 2:53 AM local, there was a ceiling of 2,000 feet observed at PANC and at 2,400 feet at Merrill Field. This set up is not conducive for fog development. However, the cigs have the potential to bounce around from 2,000 feet to 3,000 feet at PANC early this morning. As the day unfolds, the cigs are expected to lift a bit and then VFR conditions will prevail for the remainder of the TAF period. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2/Today through Wednesday night)... The big story as we head through the next couple days will be colder and drier conditions with strong winds across the Gulf and strong gap winds along the Gulf coast and Prince William Sound. Starting with this morning, a weak upper level short-wave trough moving over-top of and flattening a strong upper ridge, will pass across interior Southcentral. This will produce some light snow, mainly along west facing slopes of mountain ranges. Cold air advection, which ensured behind a front that moved through the region last evening, will continue across Southcentral and the Gulf. This will lead to strengthening winds across the western Gulf, Cook Inlet, and western Prince William Sound. Meanwhile, a short-wave tracking eastward along the Aleutian chain will lead to cyclogenesis over the North Pacific. While this low will initially be quite weak, the short-wave will begin to dig southeastward as an upstream ridge rapidly amplifies ahead of a strong Northwest Pacific low. Thus, the low will deepen as it passes to the south of Kodiak Island tonight then across the southern Gulf on Wednesday. This will really tighten up pressure gradients across the region. One last piece of the puzzle will be the current storm over northern Alaska. As it exits eastward today arctic air will pour in behind it. When the upper flow amplifies Tuesday night and Wednesday this air will be forced southward across Southcentral. The tight pressure gradients combined with the cold air advection will lead to very strong gap winds along the north Gulf coast and Prince William Sound, peaking most places Wednesday through Wednesday night. Winds should then begin to diminish on Thursday. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... A once powerful low is quickly moving into the North Slope, with strong onshore winds slowly coming down as the pressure gradient slackens this morning. The strongest winds remain over the Kusko Delta, and they will remain so through the morning. High temperatures will probably occur this morning across most of the region with a slow drop in temperatures as colder air moves in behind the low. The flow will remain onshore for the next two days as a series of low amplitude waves moves inland through Wednesday. None of the disturbances look very well defined, with the best chances for snow showers moving inland across the Kusko Delta and along the mountains. The upper flow will become more northwesterly Wednesday with a gradual drying. Wednesday night, high pressure builds in, and with cold temps aloft in place, expect temperatures to plummet back close to climatological norms. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)... Broad westerly flow with areas of snow showers have set up over most of the open Bering Sea. A low will move into the Eastern Aleutians today and tonight, bringing snow (with some mix today) and possibly some blowing snow for favored channeled terrain. A series of low amplitude disturbances will merge and amplify over the Pribilof Islands, bringing increasing threats for light accumulating snow with convective enhanced graupel also possible. The low over the Eastern Aleutians and the associated upper trough quickly move into the NPAC by Wednesday morning with tapering snow threats. Attention quickly turns to a powerful storm force low which will move into the Western Bering/Aleutians Tue night through Wed night. The strongest core of warm frontal SE winds and cold air advection SW winds will remain over that region with much weaker gales as the front moves east toward the eastern half of the Bering Sea by Wed night. Winds may gust to 70 MPH at Shemya, but no significant high winds are anticipated at this point. && .MARINE (Days 3 through 5)... The period begins Thursday with a large intense low over the western Bering Sea and another strong low southeast of the Gulf of Alaska. Model guidance is in very good agreement for this extended time frame lending higher confidence in the forecast for the days 3 through 5 timeframe. Gale to storm force wind is likely with the Bering storm Thursday and in advance of the front as it progresses across the Bering Sea through Friday. Gales are likely across the Gulf of Alaska Thursday, then expect benign conditions, sub gales, throughout the Gulf of Alaska and adjacent coastal areas. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)... The main message for the longer term is the continuation of a very active weather pattern. A large intense low in the western Bering Sea Thursday with the associated front extending through the Bering Sea across the eastern Aleutians will continue along the north to northeast trajectory. This storm and front will produce gale to storm force wind in the Bering Sea and along the Aleutians. The Front looks to make landfall along the Bering Sea coast Thursday as it weakens significantly. All the models are in general agreement with a secondary trough that develops into a front Thursday with the formation of a frontal low Thursday night. This is where there is some disagreement in the model solutions with the GFS supporting a stronger low than the EC. At this point we will lean toward the EC solution maintaining continuity in the forecast until we see more of a model push for the stronger frontal low solution. Following this Bering Sea storm another compact strong low will be heading toward the western Aleutians Friday. We will maintain continuity here and stick with WPC and the EC as we progress through the weekend. Early next week the models converge back into better agreement bringing a moderate low into the Seward Peninsula region. Over the Gulf of Alaska and southern mainland the main driving factor will be the low southeast of the Gulf of Alaska and high pressure over the mainland Thursday. This combination will support colder conditions over the southern mainland along with moderate outflow wind through gaps in the coastal mountains. At this point we expect temperatures to cool around 10 to 20 degrees over much of the southern mainland Thursday and Friday. Heading through the weekend warmer air will be pushed across the southern mainland from the Bering resulting in warming temperatures around 10 to 15 degrees. The models are in generally good agreement Sunday bringing a weak low into the northern Gulf of Alaska followed by a weak ridge of high pressure Monday. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
