Northern Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fairbanks AK 634 AM AKDT Wed Jul 10 2019 .DISCUSSION... Synopsis...Fire Weather Watches for Thursday and Friday remain in effect, and Smoke Advisory continues to much of the Interior into the evening. Conditions will be improving as a weather front moves into the interior from the north. Winds will be switching around to southwest to northwest today and with better mixing the smoke will be lifting and dispersing better. Thunderstorms and showers also developing in the Lower Yukon Delta today, then spreading north Thursday and Friday. It remains comfortably warm and dry on the Northwest Arctic Coast and in the Western Brooks Range. Patchy stratus and fog east of Wainwright along the coast again this morning will see some improvement during the day, but expect the dense fog to return by late evening. Models...Good run to run continuity with the 10/12Z solutions. Smoke models keep the smoke over the interior, but start thinning it as the winds swing around and the front moves into the interior. Convective indicies are marginal today, better Thursday and Friday. Going to lean toward the NAM for precipitation, and winds. Aloft...At 500 hpa...Ridging is finally breaking down, well moving off as the 580 dam closed high that was over the Bering Strait is slowly move northwest over the Chukotsk Peninsula. A 575 dam high developing over Anvik with ridging extend northwest over Siberia, and southeast over Prince William Sound by Thursday morning. The ridge continues to be squeezed with a 565 dam high developing over Tanana by Saturday morning, but by Saturday afternoon a 568 dam high will develop over Yakutat and ridging will extend northwest over the Seward Peninsula. A 543 dam low is moving southeast over the Beaufort Sea with a weak shortwave associated with it moving over the northeast mainland. The low will continue to move southeast with a stronger shortwave moving over the Eastern Arctic Coast by Thursday morning with a 563 dam low developing over the Western Brooks Range and moving over Huslia by Friday morning. The low will dissipate Friday evening with ridging building northwest over the state. The elongated trough that was over the Aleutians has moved over the Southern Bering Sea today and the trough will rotate north over Bristol Bay by Saturday morning. At 850 hpa...Temperatures will warm a couple more degrees today over the Southern Interior, then cooling through the weekend, but generally remaining above 10C. Surface...Broad area of low pressure over the state and a weak weather front has moved southeast into the Interior and is merging with the Thermal trough this morning. The front lies from the Eastern Beaufort Sea south of Old Crow to Fort Yukon, then southwest over Anvik. High pressure over the Arctic will strengthen as a 1020 mb high moves to 100 nm of Point Barrow tonight. A low developing along the front near Arctic Village will move southeast over Dawson YT with the front lying from Eagle to Fairbanks to Ruby to Anvik this morning then stalling through Friday. Weak high pressure will build over the Eastern Bering Sea tonight, then weakens. A benign weather pattern will develop over the state for the weekend. Arctic Coast and Brooks Range...Patchy stratus and fog along the coast again this morning and over the Plains this morning. Expect it to burn off, but a bit later than yesterday. GOES IFR Probability at 10/14Z indicates IFR conditions along the Eastern Arctic coast and just inland. Dense fog being reported and confirms the imagery. Visibility reduced to 1/4 mile or less at times this morning with improving ceilings and visibilities by late morning. Winds northeast to east 5 to 20 mph today. High temperatures in the 60s from Wainwright west, and in the 40s to the east. Temperatures will be cooling into the 30s and 40s for most areas by Thursday. West Coast and Western Interior...Basically the same as yesterday, smokey, hot, and dry, but with increased chance of thunderstorms or showers. Satellite imagery shows smoke has swirled around over the Bering Strait, Chukchi Sea, and over the Arctic. Visibility was reported down to 4 miles in smoke at Kivalina last evening. Webcams are showing a smokey haze in most areas with the lowest visibilities in the Lower Yukon Delta and Kuskokwim Valley. Winds light and variable less than 10 mph this morning becoming southwest 5 to 15 mph this afternoon. Central and Eastern Interior...Smokey, Hot, and dry, but conditions will be improving a bit the next couple days as a weather front moves into the area and winds swing around from the southwest to northwest. The front will also bring some isolated thunderstorms and showers to the area. High temperatures in the upper 70s and 80s with lows falling into the 50s and maybe even the upper 40s north of the Yukon River. && Coastal Hazard Potential Days 3 and 4...None. && .Fire Weather...Fire Weather Watches remain in effect. Isolated thunderstorms developing this afternoon and hot and dry conditions continue. Widespread Wetting Rains are NOT expected as precipitation will be showery. A weather front moving south will interact with the thermal trough over the Interior. The front will lie from Eagle to Fairbanks to Ruby to Anvik this afternoon, and stalls in the area through Thursday. Winds will remain generally light, less than 10 mph, but will be from the southwest to northwest which should help clear some of the smoke. Gusty winds to 20 mph developing along the Eastern Brooks Range today. The thermal belt will be between 500 and 1200 feet tonight with no thermal belt expected Thursday night. Fair to poor overnight relative humidity recovery. && .Hydrology...None. Glacially fed rivers slowly rising and will remain high.
