Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED National Weather Service Anchorage AK 545 AM AKDT Mon Jun 15 2020 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... An upper level low centered near Unalaska is leading to scattered showers across the eastern Bering/Aleutians. More benign conditions farther west are observed under building high pressure. Embedded shortwaves in the aforementioned upper low are moving northeastward across Bristol Bay and the Kuskokwim Delta. These brought scattered thunderstorms over this region during the daytime hours yesterday, though they have since died off as stability has increased overnight. Showers are still relatively widespread over the Kuskokwim Delta and Alaska Peninsula as latest water vapor imagery shows ample moisture remaining present over these areas. Weak upper troughing is bringing a few clouds across Southcentral, but otherwise conditions are calm given the drier conditions aloft as well as weak overall flow. A more potent easterly wave is leading to light showers moving westward over portions of the Copper River Basin this morning. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... Models remain in good synoptic agreement. As usual, embedded shortwave troughs will make exact timing/placement of thunderstorms difficult through Tuesday near the Alaska Range. As a low approaches Kodiak Island by Tuesday afternoon, local wind effects will need to be more closely examined. While a Turnagain wind appears likely, the strength of the thermal through over the interior will determine if it will bend into the Anchorage bowl. More cloud cover would obviously weaken the trough and cause winds to be more confined to the coast. Models remain somewhat in disagreement regarding this with GFS/ECMWF much more overcast than NAM/Canadian. Confidence is average. && .AVIATION... PANC...VFR conditions and light winds will persist. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2: Monday and Tuesday)... The last of a long series of easterly waves can be seen over the eastern Copper River Basin this morning. This should provide the last round light convection over the Copper River Basin, Talkeetna Mountains, and eastern Chugach later today before pushing northwest tonight. As the wave moves out, some showery activity may persist over the high terrain through Tuesday. The next weather feature for the coming week will be the upper level shortwave arriving just to the south of the Akpen Tuesday morning. Its surface low is forecast to remain near the Akpen, but the eastward extending front is expected to bring persistent rain to Kodiak Island starting early Tuesday morning. Frontal precipitation should push north all the way through to the Prince William Sound by Tuesday night. Areas on the eastern side of the Kenai Peninsula and the Anchorage Bowl should stay mostly dry due to downsloping. Mass convergence along the Southcentral coastline as the front moves northward will create a coastal ridge, bringing Gale force winds through Shelikof Strait and the Barren Islands beginning Tuesday night. The strong pressure gradient and remnants of a thermal trough in the Susitna Valley will also create gusty winds over the Turnagain arm and into Anchorage Tuesday afternoon and well into the night. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)... The broad cyclonic circulation over the eastern Bering continues to be the driver for sensible weather in Southwest Alaska. A series of shortwave disturbances have brought some rain to the Kuskokwim Delta coastal area this morning, as well as some stratus and fog to the Pribilofs. This feature is being supported by the main branch of the jet stream to the south. Monday looks to be a quiet weather day for Southwest Alaska, but that all changes Monday night. The upper low in residence will deepen as a surface low in the north Pacific phases with the existing feature over the eastern Aleutians. This will bring widespread rain showers and gusty winds to Bristol Bay Tuesday night and Wednesday. The Kuskokwim Delta and the Kuskokwim Valley will see widespread showers on Tuesday and Wednesday. A passing shortwave trough on Tuesday afternoon will present an opportunity for scattered convection in the lower Kuskokwim Valley and portions of the Kuskokwim Delta. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3)... The western Bering will remain quiet through the period, aside from some fog and clouds. The eastern Bering will be dominated by the upper low that presently resides east of Dutch Harbor. It is pushing a series of shortwaves over Bristol Bay and back to the Pribilofs this morning. Monday will see some scattered rain showers in the eastern Chain and western AKPEN as persistent southerly flow pushes more moisture across the AKPEN. Things get going on Monday night as the surface low in the North Pacific phases with the upper low and widespread rain and gusty winds develop from Cold Bay eastward through Tuesday. Model guidance suggests that the low will remain semi-stationary on Wednesday over the AKPEN and elongate east to west with some widespread rain shower activity back to the Pribilofs and south to Dutch Harbor. && .MARINE (Days 3 through 5... Wednesday through Friday)... Easterly gale force winds are expected along the northern Gulf coast on Wednesday as a low center moves over the Alaska Peninsula. Another system may bring easterly gale force winds to the northern Gulf coast again on Friday afternoon, though there is low confidence in the track at this time. Over the Bering, the low moving over the Alaska Peninsula Wednesday will bring northerly small craft winds over the central and eastern Bering waters. This low retrogrades Wednesday night, bringing northwesterly flow to the western Bering. Some gale force winds are possible across the western Aleutians. Generally quiet conditions are expected for the end of the week. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7...Thursday through Sunday)... Some key features that have been consistent over the last few days include a broad upper level low in place over the eastern Bering and a ridge in place over the Yukon. Model solutions show fair agreement with the low taking a southeasterly track into the central Gulf by Saturday. Overall, this shift in the pattern will bring cloudier skies and cooler temperatures for the southern Mainland. Onshore flow along the northern Gulf coast will likely bring rainy conditions for next weekend. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PUBLIC...NONE. MARINE...NONE.
