What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Jul 8, 6:01 PM AKDT, 10 hours earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 8, 6:01 PM AKDT, 10 hours before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 601 PM AKDT Thu Jul 8 2021 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... The longwave trough remains nearly unmoved from yesterday, extending from the Arctic to the Kenai Peninsula and then southward into the Pacific to about 35N. This is a very strong trough for this time of year with cold upper level temperatures along with it. The 12Z Anchorage sounding showed 500 mb temperatures an unseasonably chilly -26C. A jet streak is running from north to south from the Chukchi Sea through Bristol Bay in the strong gradient behind the trough and ahead of a building ridge in the western Bering Sea. This feature can bee seen on GOES-17 satellite driving quickly southward along this path. This jet streak represents the separation between the warmer air building in from the west and the colder air to the east under the trough. This will be the path the next upper level low takes to traverse from the Chukchi Sea tonight into Southwest Alaska Friday and into the weekend. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... There have been some shifts in the models over the past day that will have a significant impact on the forecast for the Gulf of Alaska region. The GFS and ECMWF models have both moved toward a solution that will bring the low moving into the Gulf Friday into Saturday both farther west and stronger for those days. This will bring some persistent and/or heavy rain to parts of the north Gulf coast and Kodiak Island. Previously, the heaviest rainfall looked like it would occur east of Cordova, but that area now should include the coastal areas from Cordova southwestward through Kodiak. && .AVIATION... PANC...What is now a relatively weak coastal ridge and Turnagain Arm jet will strengthen Friday out ahead of a front entering the western Gulf. Deep layer southeast flow combined with quite a bit of instability in place favors gusty southeast winds persisting at the airport for most, if not the entire TAF forecast period. If winds were to lighten up it would be between 12Z and 18Z. Despite the strong cross-barrier flow, dynamics aloft with an approaching storm on Friday look impressive. Short-waves will eject out of a trough over Southwest Alaska into Cook Inlet and toward Anchorage. Thus, expect rain to develop Friday afternoon and ceilings to lower to around 5000 feet. While it would be difficult for ceilings to lower any more in this flow regime, there could be some embedded heavier rain, with potential for visibility to briefly be reduced to MVFR. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3...Tonight through Sat evening)... The broad longwave trough has shifted eastward today over the Alaska Range and into Southcentral. As a result, the persistent cool, wet pattern continues with another round of light to moderate showers developing this afternoon from eastern Kenai Peninsula north across the Mat-Su Valleys, and coastal areas of Prince William Sound. These showers are in response to upper level waves embedded in the moist, southerly flow ahead of the trough and moving from Cook Inlet to the southern mainland as well as the north Gulf coast. Thereafter, attention turns to an unseasonably, strong upper level low and associated surface front moving from Southwest Alaska into the Gulf on Friday. Gusty, southeasterly gap winds will develop on Friday afternoon out ahead of the front and continue through Saturday morning over Turnagain Arm, Knik River Valley, and the Copper River Valley in response to a coastal ridge and pressure gradient strengthening. As the front continues moving toward the north Gulf coast, expect additional rain along Southcentral coast through Sunday evening. The deep fetch of tropical moisture and precipitation will bring steady moderate to heavy rain over Kodiak Island and the southern coast of the Kenai Peninsula. The rest of the moisture and rain will be concentrated from Cook Inlet north across the Susitna Valley and along PWS. As the low slowly becomes detached from the mean flow of the jet stream and meanders over the western Gulf, steady rain will be focused along the coast, with showers tapering off further inland by Sunday with the help of the downslope easterly flow. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)... At the onset of the forecast period the longwave trough extends from the Arctic Ocean to the Gulf Of Alaska. There are multiple shortwaves embedded in the upper trough. This energy will sustain widespread precipitation across Southwest Alaska this evening and on Friday. Currently there is a surface low north of Savoonga and the models drop the surface low southeastward near Hooper Bay tomorrow morning. By Friday evening the surface low will be near Bethel. Saturday morning the surface low will be over Bristol Bay. Lingering showers anticipated Saturday. Sunday an upper level ridge axis will build into Hooper Bay towards Galena. Drier conditions are anticipated Sunday. Although its possible that wrap around moisture from a closed low south of the AKPEN could produce showers over the AKPEN and Lake Clark National Park. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3)... There is a weak ridge axis over the Western and Central Bering. Also there is a closed low over the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka that is kicking out weak shortwaves. Early this morning an intense thunderstorm developed over the Bering just northwest of Dutch Harbor and tracked into the North Pacific - which is very unusual. Overall, the pattern looks benign but the jet will be crossing the Eastern Bering this evening which is where the weather will be most active. && .MARINE (Days 3 through 5: Sunday through Tuesday)... The expected location of a Gulf storm has shifted westward, which will maintain stronger winds across the Gulf waters for a longer period of time. While there could be additional shifting of the storm track, we are getting close enough that confidence is increasing in area of greatest impact. Thus, expect widespread gale force winds and seas of 12 to 18 ft across the northern to western Gulf (including Shelikof Strait) on Sunday. Winds will then diminish Sunday night and Monday as the storm slowly weakens, while remaining parked over the southern Gulf. Meanwhile, conditions across the Bering Sea, Aleutians, and Southwest Alaska waters look quiet. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7/Monday through Thursday)... A broad, slow-moving upper level low over the Gulf of Alaska will remain in the narrative through the middle of next week. This is a typical "easterly wave" set-up for southern Alaska. It's too far out in time to identify specific short-waves or time periods, but there is potential for rain at any given time Monday through Wednesday across Southcentral. In addition, a weak thermal trough will set up over interior sections of Southcentral and Southwest Alaska. This will serve as the focus for diurnal showers, and possibly thunderstorms. Bottom line, the pattern will continue to favor mostly cloudy skies and a chance of rain. The upper level low does look like it will finally exit toward Southeast Alaska late in the week, with potential for warmer and drier conditions across southern Alaska. Over the Bering, a Northwest Pacific low will transit east and near the Aleutian Chain Monday afternoon through Wednesday, but it looks weak with benign weather. A more significant storm looks to enter the picture Wednesday night through Thursday, tracking across the western Bering and Aleutians. As is typical this far out in time, model guidance differs on the track and strength of this low and forecast confidence is low. && .AFC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PUBLIC...None. MARINE...None.
