Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
345 PM AKST Tue Nov 17 2020

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

The large upper-level ridge has its axis running from around
Bristol Bay through the Interior of the state today. The surface
high stretches from the Yukon Territory into the Interior of the
state with a tight pressure gradient set up over the Chugach
Mountains and St Elias Mountains along the north Gulf coast.

This pattern is producing northerly flow aloft over the Copper
River Basin and Prince William Sound areas resulting in some
enhanced outflow winds through the coastal mountains from Seward
to Whittier, Valdez and points eastward. It is also keeping low
clouds trapped in the lower elevations of the Copper River Basin.
This same effect is keeping area of fog around Anchorage and the
Matanuska Valley today with light flow at the surface packing fog
along the Chugach Mountains.

A weak and dissipating front in moving over Southwest mainland
Alaska today with just enough punch left to bring a short period
of light precipitation as it moves eastward.

There is a Storm Force low over the far western Bering Sea just
east of the Kamchatka Peninsula. This low is bringing a strong
front to the western and Central Aleutians today and will
continue eastward along the chain the next few days.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...
Models are in reasonable agreement for the next two days and then
begin to really break down in terms of consistency. On Thursday,
they all have the idea of a strong low in southern Bering Sea that
moves northward by Friday. However, there becomes a 350 mile
difference in center positions Friday with and even bigger
difference with the development of a low from anywhere from the
Alaska Peninsula to well south of the Gulf of Alaska. Getting a
handle on this low development will likely be the biggest forecast
challenge the next few days.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...The main forecast challenge will be the continued threat
of fog and/or low stratus around the airport. There is a good
chance the fog redevelops overnight, but it should dissipate again
Wednesday by late morning as increased winds in northern Knik Arm
should help mix the atmosphere better in the source region of the
fog and therefore improve conditions downstream at the airport.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)...

Offshore flow will continue to bring clear skies and cooler
temperatures through Wednesday. Winds are expected to peak early
Tuesday morning as an upper level ridge aligns with the surface
flow. Gusts exceeding 50 mph are possible in Valdez/Thompson Pass.
These will gradually diminish Tuesday and Wednesday as a low near
the Panhandle weakens. Patchy fog remains possible tonight near
Knik Arm. The pattern will begin to shift by Thursday. A weak low
will move over Kodiak Island, bringing rain/snow through the day.
No significant accumulations are expected in Kodiak City. The
associated moisture will continue to track eastward into Friday,
likewise brining mixed precipitation to the southern Kenai
Peninsula. While model agreement degrades with time, cloud cover
is expected to build with increased southeasterly flow. As such,
temperatures will warm into this weekend.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)...

High pressure that has been over SW AK...is shifting and eroding.
A trio of fronts will bring increasingly active weather to SW AK
through Friday. The first front has moved inland and is near
Bethel. This storm will continue to move inland but significant
accumulations are not expected. The next front will move into SW
AK Wednesday and this system looks a little more juicy and the
thermodynamics look more complicated. This system will bring a
wintry mix. The higher moisture content combined with stronger
upper level forcing will enable this front to move farther inland
past Aniak and Sleetmute. Friday another low moves into the
eastern Bering, this storm will impact SW AK. The models have not
converged on a low track. Stay tuned for more details.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3)...

The active pattern continues for the Bering. The longwave trough
spans from the Eastern Bering to West of Kamchatka. Currently,
there is a mature low and its surface low is near Kamchatka. Cold
air will continue to get wrapped into this system and gale-storm
force winds will materialize. Expect high seas. The cold front
associated with this low will march eastward relatively quickly.
Late Wednesday/early Thursday, a vigorous shortwave will move
south of the Aleutians and spin up an new system. This low will
jump north of the chain Thursday west of Dutch Harbor and move
north and east. This will be another hardy low.

.MARINE (Days 3 through 5: Friday through Sunday)...

Gulf of Alaska:

A storm force low forming south of the Alaska Peninsula will bring
gale and storm force winds to the Gulf waters through Saturday.
Winds will weaken to small craft levels Saturday night weak low
pressure remains over the Gulf. There is increasing confidence a
gale force low enters the western Gulf Sunday night.

Bering Sea:

A storm force low over the Bering Friday lifts into the northern
Bering Friday night. There is potential for a second storm force
low to form south of the Alaska Peninsula Friday morning and lift
northward into the Bristol Bay region for Saturday, however there
is still uncertainty with the track and strength of this low.
Broad low pressure will remain over the Bering through the weekend
with gale force winds likely across the Bering waters through
Sunday.

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7...Saturday through
Tuesday)...

Two key features in the long term include a broad upper level
trough over the Bering extending along an axis from Kamchatka to
the Alaska Peninsula and an upper level ridge over the northern
AK-Yukon border. A series of lows will develop as shortwaves
embedded within the upper level trough eject northeastward toward
Southcentral. This will make for an active weather pattern for
much of the southern half of the state for the start of the
weekend. In the midlevels, a sharp baroclinic zone is positioned
south of the Aleutian Chain as a cold airmass with northerly flow
persists over the Bering waters through Saturday night. While the
initial pattern looks to be zonal, over the course of the
weekend, a more amplified pattern is likely to set up by early
next week as a ridge moves in from the west. This ridge will shift
the broad upper level trough eastward over the mainland. With a
ridge over the Bering and a trough over the mainland, the
Southwestern part of the state can expect strong north to
northwesterly outflow winds, especially over the Alaska Peninsula.
By late Monday into Tuesday, models are keying in on a strong
Kamchatka low arriving over the western Bering. This low will
ultimately force the ridge eastward as its front traverses the
Bering early next week.
