Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
512 PM AKDT Sat Sep 11 2021

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

The weather pattern aloft is rather straightforward with a large
upper level low over the northern Bering Sea with the 250 mb jet
stream running south of this low over the Aleutians. This is also
bringing in southwest flow aloft to Southwest mainland Alaska with
a transient ridge over Southcentral this afternoon.

The surface pattern is quite a bit more complex with a complex low
with four different centers encompassing most of the Bering Sea
and a separate low south of the Alaska Peninsula this afternoon
which will get absorbed into the southernmost center (located near
Atka Island this afternoon) as that southern low center rapidly
strengthens and becomes the dominate low by tomorrow.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

Models are all sliding nicely into agreement with the structure of
the complex low in the Being Sea and the way another low moves out
of the North Pacific and gets absorbed by the Bering Sea low early
Sunday. This is a complex pattern that has been causing trouble
for the models the past few days, but it does look like we now
have a very good consensus on how these lows will interact. This
is key to answering questions about strong winds across Southcentral
Sunday and potential high surf in Bristol Bay Sunday night into
Monday.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...VFR conditions will persist. Winds will be the biggest
challenge as a strong occluding front lifts northward across the
Gulf and toward Anchorage on Sunday. The Turnagain Arm Jet and
low level winds crossing the Kenai and Chugach Mountains will
strengthen through the day Sunday. Out ahead of the front, winds
will generally remain light at the terminal as the Turnagain jet
bends southward down Cook Inlet. This should also keep the
strongest southeast winds above 2000 feet. However, as the front
nears Anchorage during the late afternoon and early evening hours,
expect low level winds to strengthen before the surface winds,
resulting in a period of low level wind shear. Strong and gutsy
southeast winds will then move into the terminal with frontal
passage, which is currently estimated to occur between 04Z and 06Z
Sunday evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3: Today
through Tuesday afternoon)...

Dry conditions will persist into early Sunday morning as a ridge
departs to the east. A low will track over Bristol Bay Sunday
morning. Its front will extend into the Gulf, initially bringing
steady rainfall and gusty easterly to southeasterly winds over
Kodiak. Strong southerly steering flow will allow the front to
quickly move northward across the Kenai Peninsula and into
Anchorage by the evening. Strongest winds (up to 55 mph) are
expected along Turnagain Arm. Winds will peak in the Anchorage
bowl around 9pm, with highest gusts of up to 40 mph across south
and west Anchorage. Winds will diminish everywhere after the
frontal passage. Pressure gradients will increase again by Monday
afternoon and lesser, but still higher southeasterly winds will
continue through the end of the day. Rainfall will be highest
across Kodiak, the eastern Kenai Peninsula and Prince William
Sound, though nothing overly impactful is expected. Much of
Anchorage and the Matanuska Valley will remain downsloped, with
just a chance of rain after frontal passage Sunday evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3: Sat
afternoon through Tue)

In the immediate short term an elongated shortwave and surface
low west of Nunivak Island will continue to produce light rain and
gusty southerly winds over the Y-K Delta this evening. The main
focus then shifts rapidly to the south as a shortwave currently
over Atka picks up and merges with a low over the north Pacific.
As the two combine, warm and moist air from the north Pacific will
merge with colder air moving east across the Aleutian Chain,
resulting in storm intensification over the AKPen and into Bristol
Bay Sunday morning. The system's front will move over the AKPen
early Sunday morning, and into interior Bristol Bay later in the
morning. Strong winds are expected along the front through
Kamishak Gap around noon with sustained wind speeds between 30 and
45 mph. Gusts up to 65 mph are possible. See the Special Weather
Statement for more details. To the south of the low, westerly
winds up to 45 mph will persist over the AKPen and southern
Bristol Bay through the night before eventually tapering off to
20 to 30 mph Monday morning. Elevated surf is possible throughout
Bristol Bay Sunday and Monday.

The other side to this system will be widespread rain through at
least Tuesday afternoon. Upper level dynamics are favorable due
to a broad upper level vorticity maximum with multiple appendages
remaining over Southwest Alaska through Tuesday afternoon, before
eventually moving north into the interior. With ample cool air
aloft, instability and upper level forcing will allow for
widespread showers, which will be reinforced by steady and
widespread onshore flow. Temperatures will be seasonal, with
highs in the low 50s and lows in the 40s to upper 30s.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3: Sat
afternoon through Tue)...

A broad trough will remain over the central to eastern Bering
through the forecast period with a shortwave ridge developing over
the western Aleutians Monday morning. The main feature will be a
strong low intensifying over Bristol Bay on Sunday. Westerly gale
force winds are expected from the central Aleutians east into
Bristol Bay Sunday and Monday. Overall, winds will decrease from
west to east Sunday night into Monday morning, though westerly
winds between 20 and 35 kts will remain over the eastern Bering
through Tuesday morning. Focus then shifts to the western Bering
as another frontal system moves into the region Tuesday afternoon.
Winds up to gale force and rain are expected over the western to
central Aleutians Tuesday evening.

&&

.MARINE (Days 3 through 5/Tuesday through Thursday)...

The forecast period starts off with mainly northwesterly to
westerly small craft wind flow across the Bristol Bay area, Alaska
Peninsula, Kodiak Island, and Barren Islands area across the Gulf
of Alaska Tuesday. However, looking further west over the western
Bering Sea, a rather large gale force storm system is expected to
cross the Bering Sea during the time frame above. Expect the
front with this system to reach the southwestern Gulf of Alaska on
Wednesday with the impacts from this system continuing through
Thursday as the front slowly moves across the Gulf. Therefore,
expect gale force winds with this low with gusts to just below
storm force and wave heights 15 to as high as 25 feet. The highest
waves right now appear to occur on the western and southwestern
side of the system favoring the western and central Bering mainly
from the Pribilof Islands west as this system moves through.

Also, want to mention that there is the potential for storm force
winds especially somewhere in the western to central Bering Sea with
this system though there is low confidence in this right now.
The exact strength of the low will determine how strong the winds
will actually be but there is high confidence for the gale force
winds as mentioned above. Recommend continuing to check back for
updates on this system as we get closer.

&&

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

The long term forecast period starts off with a trough over the
Bering and southwesterly flow into Southcentral Alaska. The GFS
and CMC are in the best agreement with each other on the movement
of an area of low pressure from the western Bering Sea to the Gulf
of Alaska in the Wednesday to Friday time frame. The EC is the
fastest and strongest of the solutions. Therefore, the bottom line
is expect unsettled conditions with periods of rain and windy
conditions with this system especially across the coastal
areas/Kodiak and Southwest Alaska, though the exact details on
timing and strength remain uncertain. Beyond Friday, expect
conditions to gradually improve across the area with just some
scattered showers with breezy conditions especially across
Southwest and the eastern Bering Sea. The western Bering Sea and
Western Aleutians are largely expected to remain quiet Friday and
Saturday as zonal flow with perhaps weak upper level ridging moves
over the area.
