Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
452 PM AKST Fri Feb 5 2021

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

The upper level ridge has moved east and now stretches north from
southeast to northwest Alaska. A trough is moving northeast across
southwest Alaska.

In the low levels, the surface boundary associated with the upper
level trough is moving northeast across the eastern Aleutians and
southwest AK, producing a band of light snow and areas of fog. Small
craft winds and waves are occurring over most of the Bering and
the Aleutians.

The next storm system is approaching the western Aleutians, which
will bring widespread gale-force winds and waves with areas of
storm-force winds from the Rat Islands west to Attu.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

Models remain in fairly good agreement on synoptic features
through the next several days. The surface low and attendant
surface boundary currently moving northeast toward the interior
will continue to gradually weaken. The stronger storm approaching
the western Aleutians is expected to continue to pivot around the
NPAC and not move farther northeast into the bering.

&&

.AVIATION...

PANC...VFR to occasional MVFR will continue through the TAF period.
MVFR conditions most likely during the late afternoon and evening
with areas of light snow possible. Winds will generally be light
and variable.

&&

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

Synoptic-wise, there is a 1044 mb surface high north of the
Brooks Range and a weak low near Hitchinbrook Entrance. Lingering
fog and stratus remain over much of Cook Inlet and Mat-Su Valley
regions. An upper level wave will move across Southcentral Alaska
tonight and Saturday bringing light snowfall to portions of the
region. Significant accumulations are not anticipated at this
time and some locations will just see a trace or a dusting. The
radar at Kenai shows several light bands of snow over Cook Inlet,
the Barren Islands and the Kenai Peninsula this afternoon.
However, the main sensible weather highlight will be the
persistence of the brutally cold temperatures through the forecast
period. These sub-zero, single digit and otherwise sub-freezing
temperatures are anticipated for the next several days for most
of Southcentral.

&&

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

The frontal wave that brought gusty winds and a brief round of
snow to the Southwest is exiting into Southcentral this evening.
Skies are beginning to clear out in patches behind the front, but
a fast moving shortwave will bring snow showers across the Y-K
Delta through the overnight tonight. Little on the way of snow
accumulation is expected with these snow showers with the spotty
and brief nature of these showers. Quieter and clearer conditions
will spread across the region by Saturday as a strong upper ridge
moves into place from the eastern Bering.

As the ridge builds into the Southwest, moisture trapped in the
low levels may lead to areas of fog formation late tonight into
Saturday. The best chance for fog will be across the lower
elevations near and inland of Bristol Bay as winds calm and
temperatures cool until the air mass underneath a shallow
inversion begins to saturate. Increasing offshore flow ahead of a
slow moving front crossing the Bering should help break up any fog
that lingers into Saturday afternoon and evening. This front has
slowed down quite a bit compared to previous model depictions, and
may not reach the Southwest coast until Monday as it runs into an
arctic high building into the northern interior. Depending on the
progression of the front, snow may creep up into the Southwest
from west to east as early as Monday morning, with some potential
for mixed precipitation along the coast and AKPEN with the warmer
air moving in along and behind the frontal boundary. However, the
cold and dense arctic air attempting to build back in from the
northeast may be enough to stall the front offshore, and this
would effectively extend the dry and quieter period over much of
the area into early next week.

&&

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

A strong front arcing from a low in the North Pacific is bringing
gale to storm force winds into the southwest Bering and Western
Aleutians, including Shemya. Recent ASCAT passes indicate most of
the winds with the front are remaining as high end gales, but
storm force winds and gusts can be expected with this front
through tonight as it works farther north into the Western Bering.
By Saturday, the low center will lift past the Western Aleutians,
bringing another round of gale force winds and rain/snow showers.
The occluded front associated with this low will continue moving
northeast through Sunday as it slowly weakens. Depending on how
the front interacts with a colder air mass attempting to build
back into the northern Bering and mainland Alaska, the front may
hang up in the eastern Bering where it will continue to degrade in
strength and produce areas of rain and snow.

Another system will approach the Western Bering/Aleutians right
in the wake of the weekend storm system by Sunday night and
Monday. At least gale force winds and another band of mixed
precipitation will spread across the area from the southwest with
this next slow moving frontal system late Sunday into much of
Monday.

&&

.MARINE (Days 3 through 5: Monday through Wednesday)...

Gulf of Alaska: An elongated trough moves into the Eastern Gulf
by Wed. Weak high pressure moves over the Gulf through Wed. Models
vary slightly, so confidence remains good through the forecast.
Generally light winds over the Gulf, except for gustier winds
through the lower Shelikof Strait and Sitkinak areas into the
Western Gulf, diminishing. Wave heights over the Southern Gulf to
7 feet, subsiding.

Bering Sea: A well developed Kamchatka low retreats to the Sea of
Okhotsk for Wed. Its front stretches over the Central Aleutians
and Bering though Wed. Models become mixed through the forecast
period, so confidence decreases. Widespread high end gale force
winds and waves remain with the front through Wed. A new North
Pacific low spreads high end gale force winds over the Aleutians
Tue, and into the Western and Central Bering for Wed. Wave heights
to 26 feet for the Western Aleutians and Bering, 21 feet for the
Central Aleutians and Bering.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7: Tuesday through
Friday)...

The weather pattern early next week still looks to be dominated
by a deep upper-level polar low moving east to west across
interior Alaska. The upper-level pattern would translate to a
strong ridge of high pressure and arctic air over the much of the
state with a trough of low pressure over the Gulf. The resultant
northerly flow maintaining colder than average temperatures across
the Southern Mainland and northerly outflow winds along the
Southcentral coast.

With that said, there are differences in the evolution and track
of this polar low through midweek, and these differences will
dictate just how much arctic air spills over the Alaska Range and
over Southcentral. The track will also determine the position of
any subsequent upper-level shortwaves rotating around the main
low that could bring some unsettled weather to the region.

The biggest change to the previous long term forecast starts on
Tuesday as the upper level low shifts west. Models are now keeping
this feature farther north, along the with the core of coldest
air. Moreover, as this low shifts west, a shortwave trough,
coupled with an increasing southerly flow aloft over Southcentral,
is expected to lift moisture northward. This will likely increase
the chance for snow from the Middle Kuskokwim Valley to the Copper
River Basin late Tuesday into Wednesday. With the main polar low
continuing to move toward the northern Bering through Thursday
with a ridge building over the eastern Gulf, the southerly flow
deepens from the AKPEN to Prince William Sound. This pattern would
bring shortwaves from the North Pacific toward the AKPEN, keeping
conditions unsettled from the Kenai Peninsula to the eastern
Aleutians into late next week. This synoptic pattern would also
act to erode the colder air in place over the Southern Mainland
brining a return to more seasonal temperatures.
