Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED National Weather Service Anchorage AK 511 PM AKST Mon Dec 16 2019 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... An upper low over the northwestern Gulf Alaska continues broad cyclonic flow over the Gulf and the southern and western mainland. At the surface, a weakening occluded front stretches east to west from the eastern Gulf coast to over Bristol Bay. Rain or rain/snow mix was evident along this boundary over the Gulf and eastern Kenai Peninsula with light snow from western Cook Inlet/SW Susitna Valley to over Bristol Bay. General easterly flow in the low to mid levels continued downslope drying to the lee of the Kenai and Chugach Mountains. Further west, an upper long wave made headway east to over the Aleutians. At the surface, a 980s mb low was evident near the central aleutians with an occluded front stretching east to near Unalaska. Rain and southerly gales were evident east of the surface low. To the west, snow mixed with rain and near storm force northerly winds were observed. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... Models are synoptically in good agreement through the short-term forecast period. Overall, will be performing relatively minor edits. && .AVIATION... PANC...VFR conditions and light winds will persist. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... Active weather mainly impacts the Gulf and surrounding coasts through mid week with drier cooler conditions inland. Patchy fog is expected to develop across the Copper River Valley late tonight as low level moisture increases and a steep temperature inversion persists. Fog will likely persist through Wednesday as the pattern remains stagnant across the interior during this time. Across the Gulf, a weak front brings additional rain and snow to the northern waters and coast tonight...followed by a more organized system, which develops just south of Kodiak Island Wednesday morning. Rain is expected with the fronts over the Gulf with a mix of rain along the immediate coasts. Cooling temperatures aloft, Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday, will likely change precipitation over to snow for coastal and inland locations. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)... A front will approach the Alaska Peninsula (AKPEN) tonight, stalling just south of it as cyclogenesis (low pressure development) commences south of the region in the north Pacific. This low that develops on the southern end of the front lifts north towards Kodiak Island on Tuesday, stalling southwest of the island, before moving off to the southeast late Tuesday night. This helps to maintain northeasterly winds across the southwest mainland, helping to advect colder air from central portions of the state into the region. This flow pattern will allow any precipitation to be confined to the AKPEN/Bristol Bay region. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)... An area of low pressure near Amchitka will slowly weaken as it slides southeast, before becoming absorbed into a developing North Pacific low that heads towards Kodiak Island. This allows colder air to drop southward across the region, helping increase the ocean Delta Ts (temperature difference between the waters surface and 850 mb/~4400 feet), allowing some shallow instability to develop. Given the weak instability and cold advection, expect a showery type precipitation pattern to become more widespread, with snow showers becoming the more prominent type across most areas. && .MARINE (Days 3 through 5)... New guidance is giving higher confidence in the likelihood for gale force outflow winds in the northwest Gulf around Kodiak Island Thursday into Friday. A strong North Pacific low is being suggested by most models for entering the Western Aleutians Saturday. However, uncertainty exists in the low's track. Guidance agrees on an eastward path, but deviations in the northward extent will play a strong role in where the strongest winds are. Right now, most models agree that gale force winds can be expected with a couple of outliers suggesting storm force or small craft level winds. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7)... The extended period starts off quiet and cold for southern mainland Alaska, as an upper level low allows for more winter like temperatures to return through the weekend. A more active period will ensue Saturday with a storm system that will bring more active weather to the Aleutians and progress into mainland Alaska to start the work week. Warm Pacific air will likely intrude on the colder air in place and precipitation can be expected for Bristol Bay and much of southcentral Alaska on Monday. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
