Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
549 AM AKST Mon Jan 18 2021
.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...
The low pressure system anticipated to impact Southcentral AK
today has spun up as forecasted. The low center is currently
entering the Southern Gulf of Alaska and has as well defined
center that can be observed on satellite. Satellite also shows the
frontal system ahead of the low itself is just now moving ashore
in Southcentral AK. RADAR indicates precipitation with this front
is arriving along the coast. Out in the Bering, and elongated
front continues its eastward trek across the Aleutians, with it
currently being located in the Central Aleutians. This front extends
southeast from a stationary low located all the way by the Kamchatka
Coast. A shortwave ridge is present in the Central/Eastern Bering.
These surface features are being supported by an active synoptic
pattern. Ridging continues to exist over mainland AK. An elogated
trough exists in the Eastern Bering diving south into the North
Pacific with a shortwave ridge just behind it. Longwave troughing
is present again in the Western Bering. In relation to the
specific surface features mentioned, a closed 500 mb low just
south of Kodiak Island supports the surface low moving north
through the Western Gulf. Another closed 500 mb low off the
Kamchatka Coast has an upper level trough that extends southeast
from it into the Western Bering. These upper level features
support the frontal system working its way across the Aleutians.
Some other smaller features exist in this active and complicated
pattern, but the ones mentioned are the players for our weather.
&&
.MODEL DISCUSSION...
In Southcentral AK, models continue to track the low forecasted to
move north through the Western Gulf of Alaska. Models continue to
make adjustments to the exact track of the low center, but they
generally bring it across the Eastern Kenai with the low pushing
quickly inland. This leads to high confidence in model performance
for this system. Models are also consistent with the progression
of the frontal system moving across the Bering Sea, as well as the
generation of a weak low pressure system along this front tonight.
So high confidence in the Bering and overall for our forecast area.
&&
.AVIATION...
PANC...VFR conditions will be present until mid morning at the
airfield. A rain/snow mix is expected to develop over the airfield
this morning and will drop ceilings to MVFR conditions. Strong
southeast winds are still expected out of Turnagain Arm early this
morning before then bend south down Cook Inlet. Winds should stay
elevated, which will present low- level wind shear issues. This
is noted in the TAF.
&&
.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 and 2: Today
through Tuesday Night)...
The well-advertised winter storm has now begun across much of
coastal Southcentral. The well defined North Pacific low is
centered southeast of Kodiak Island. It is expected to track
north towards the Kenai Peninsula, with the center likely tracking
into Western Prince William Sound before barreling inland
tonight. Most of the impactful weather will occur ahead of the
center, through this afternoon. This includes heavy rain and snow
across all of the Gulf coast and adjacent mountains. Heavy rain is
occurring along the coast, with snow occurring inland, including
in Portage. With a warmer air mass moving in and solar heating,
the snow is expected to change over to rain later this morning
through Portage, Whittier, Valdez and eventually Turnagain Pass.
Snow levels are expected to rise to between 1,000 and 2,000 feet.
Thus, any snow that falls be contending with simultaneous melting,
or it will be a very heavy, wet consistency, which doesn't
accumulate all that quickly. Thus, no low elevation locations are
expected to get very much out of this storm. Further inland, the
usual downslope shadowing will prevent much of the moisture from
impacting the Cook Inlet region, but for a time this morning some
mixed rain and snow are expected, due mostly to the sheer amount
of moisture overwhelming the downsloping working against it.
However, with above freezing temperatures expected area-wide, no
significant accumulation is expected today.
The one exception to the inland precipitation rule will be across
the mountains of the Copper River Basin, as the low center moves
inland, the moisture will also be drawn northward farther into the
mountains than many events that impact the coast. Thus, expect
snow along the Glenn Highway west of Glennallen and along the
Richardson Highway south of the Edgerton Highway junction, where
the Winter Storm Warning for heavy snow remains in effect. High
Wind Warnings also remain in effect through Portage Valley and
Eastern Turnagain Arm, and also for the Cordova area, where gusts
to 75 mph are expected. For Portage Valley this will be due to
funneling in between the mountains, for Cordova the hurricane
force barrier jet is expected to be pushed inland due to strong
southerly flow behind the leading front.
Once the low moves inland tonight, the heaviest of the
precipitation will be over. However, with the Cook Inlet region on
the back side of the low, a period of snow is expected tonight as
slightly cooler air (or better put, not as warm air) should allow
the atmosphere to cool enough to change everything over to snow.
There will not be all that much moisture with this portion of the
storm so most areas can expect around an inch of accumulation,
with up to 2 inches for higher elevations. The snow will persist
into Tuesday morning through Hatcher Pass, where up to 6 inches of
new snow are expected. The snow will end from southwest to
northeast early Tuesday morning.
A very brief break in the weather is expected for the day on
Tuesday, where some periods of sunshine are likely at times for
much of Southcentral. Temperatures will generally be in the low to
mid 30s for most of the area. The next storm follows very quickly
on its heels Tuesday afternoon in Kodiak and expanding along all
of the Gulf Coast by Tuesday night. Unlike the current storm,
however, there are several attributes to this second low that will
make it much less impactful. First, the low will be weaker.
Second, it will track towards the east-northeast, parallel to the
coast, instead of plowing full throttle into the coast. Third, it
won't have nearly as much moisture. While the eventual track is
still somewhat uncertain, it seems likely any associated
precipitation will be confined to the coast and the mountains,
with very little if anything making it inland. Thus, other than
more clouds, things stay quiet, especially from Anchorage north.
Conditions will quickly improve from west to east on Wednesday.
&&
.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 and 2)...
A fairly active pattern exists across portions of Southwest
Alaska today as a low pressure system near Kodiak Island brings
snow and windy conditions to much of the AKPEN south of King
Salmon. A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for snow and
blowing snow along the AKPEN south of King Salmon. Blowing snow
can reduce visibility to one half of a mile at times. Total snow
accumulation will range between 4-6" with locally higher amounts
in the mountains of the Aleutian Range. Winds are expected to ease
this evening and tonight which will help improve visibility as
there will be less blowing snow. Precipitation type will remain as
snow since the low will remain southeast of the region which will
allow for northeasterly offshore flow as the predominant flow
pattern during this event. Temperatures will be on a warming trend
over the next few days as winds change from a northeasterly
offshore flow pattern to a southerly onshore flow pattern. This
onshore flow pattern will increase the likelyhood of fog in areas
along the Kuskokwim Delta and Bristol Bay as dewpoints will rise
due to more moisture in the atmosphere.
A second storm will approach the Kuskokwim and Bristol Bays on
Wednesday evening. There is lower confidence with respect to the
precipitation type with this second system as some models suggest
above freezing 850 mb temperatures. These warmer temperatures
cannot be ruled out, especially in coastal areas as the southerly
onshore flow pattern will advect warmer air into the area.
&&
.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 and 2)...
A fairly complex pattern is expected to continue across the
Bering/Aleutians over the next few days. A weakening frontal
boundary over the Central Bering/Aleutians will continue to move
northeastward while weakening. This will bring a quick shot of
rain/snow to the Aleutian and Pribilof Islands today and on
Tuesday. A strong North Pacific low is expected to move
northeastward across the Central Aleutians into the Central
Bering Tuesday night. There is a high confidence of widespread
gale force winds with a smaller area of storm force winds on the
southern and southeastern flanks of this system. This storm will
produce large areas of seas over 20ft Wednesday and Thursday.
Winds are expected to be highest in areas prone to funneling from
the south along the Aleutian Chain.
&&
.MARINE (Days 3 through 5): Wednesday through Friday...
Gulf of Alaska: There are no significant storms expected for the
Gulf except periods of gale conditions. Gales associated with the
next North Pacific low will stick around through early Wed morning
before tapering off around noon. The next episode of gales will
arrive Thu morning, ushered by a strong frontal boundary latched
to a deep storm over the Bering. This event is expected to be
short-lived. Hazardous seas are expected mainly near Kodiak waters
and south of Prince William Sound in the coming days. Hazardous
seas will be much higher for the first low, which could elevate
sea heights between 20 to 25 ft Wed morning, with seas reaching up
to 20 ft over the coastal area from Kodiak Island through the
south of Resurrection Bay in the early hours of Wed morning. Seas
are expected to decline to below 20 ft by noon. Large seas up to
18 ft will spread through the Southwestern Gulf Thu morning. Seas
will gradually subside to 15 ft on Fri morning and trending
downward through the rest of Fri.
Aleutians/Bering: A large swell and seas from a deepening North
Pacific storm will generate monstrous swells and seas up to 30 ft
with occasional higher sets starting Wed morning. The central
Aleutians and Pribilof Islands lie in the path of strongest winds
and swells, and as the storm moves north through Thu morning, sea
heights will gradually subside to 15 ft near the waters of
Pribilof Islands on Thu morning. Essentially, it'll be a very
active forecast period in the first two days until the low moves
farther north of the Central Bering.
&&
.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 3 through 7): Wednesday through Sunday...
There will be a lot of weather activity over the Bering/Aleutians
as two separate North Pacific lows approach the area. Strong
gales and occasional higher gusts will spread over much of the
Aleutians through the forecast period. Warm temperatures will fill
the Aleutians east of 170W and over much of Southwest,
Southcentral and the Gulf of Alaska through the long term. For
this, perhaps rain will be mostly favorable as long as warm
temperatures from the coastal waters and warm southerly winds
persist through the week. A couple of shortwaves from two separate
frontal boundaries could increase sky cover and potential for
more rain over the forecast area. Overall, a very favorable
progressive pattern will persist through the long term.
