Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
448 PM AKDT Sat Oct 9 2021

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

A nearly stationary boundary that has set up over the Cook Inlet
region resulted in a very wet morning across portions of the Kenai
Peninsula and Anchorage. The 12Z Anchorage sounding was nearly
entirely saturated up to the tropopause, which in turn is allowing
this seemingly weak forcing to take advantage of the plentiful
moisture available to cause the significant rainfall totals we
have been seeing.

Elsewhere, quite a bit of convective activity in the form of bands
of cumulus clouds are covering much of the Gulf and the Bering as
a cool air mass gets modified moving over the relatively warm
ocean surface. Most areas are mostly cloudy, though there are some
breaks over the Talkeetna mountains and portions of the Alaska
Range.

In the upper levels, all the features over mainland Alaska are
very weak. Technically there's ridging along the west coast and
troughing over Southcentral. However the lack of any real movement
in the upper levels is why all of the rain shower activity is
barely moving. Meanwhile a nearly zonal jet stream is over the
Aleutians and far southern Gulf, where the convective activity is
racing eastward with the 120 kt jet streak winds.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

The models are in decent agreement through Monday afternoon. The
stationary boundary of rain activity from the Kenai Peninsula to
the Mat Valley required frequent forecast updates today. There
are some small differences in the track of the low moving into
Southwest Alaska early Monday morning, and there almost always are
significant differences on where the leeside low forms and how
strong it is. Today is no exception. Significant differences are
noted by Monday afternoon with the Gulf low, specifically how
strong it is and how close to the north Gulf coast it tracks. The
greatest impact this would cause pertains to how strong the
barrier jet gets from Cape Suckling to south of Seward. The winds
range from low-end storm force (50 kt) to low- end hurricane force
(65 kt). Fortunately as of now none of the models bring the low
center north of Middleton Island, so that should hold all of the
greatest impacts associated with the low to the Gulf coast and
adjacent mountains. Overall forecast confidence is a bit above
average.

&&

.AVIATION...
PANC...Shower activity will gradually taper off and associated
MVFR ceilings should improve this evening. There is a chance of
some patchy fog development early Sunday morning, especially if
any prolonged clearing occurs. Any fog will burn off by midday.
Dry weather is likely to persist through Tuesday, though an
isolated shower or two can't be ruled out on Monday.

&&

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

A series of upper level waves embedded in the moist, southwesterly
flow will keep rain showers ongoing for the Kenai Peninsula
northward into the Mat-Su Valleys, while a surface low south of
Seward will also keep the shower activity along Prince William
Sound and the Copper River Basin through late tonight. Upper level
support coupled with cold air advection will help maintain
westerly gale force winds funneling through the bays and passes
near Kamishak Bay to the Barren Islands. As the main upper level
trough shifts east in the AK-Yukon border, precipitation will
taper off west to east across Southcentral as a ridge of high
pressure builds overhead. Winds will also taper off in the wake of
trough passage and the pressure gradient relaxes as well. Partly
to mostly cloudy skies with cool, dry conditions will prevail on
Sunday with daytime temperatures in the 40s and overnight lows in
the 20s in the interior valleys and 30s along the coast.

Thereafter, a pattern shift will once again get underway for
early next week as a deepening trough sets up over the eastern
Bering Sea. A well developed North Pacific low will enter the
western Gulf with an associated frontal boundary bringing
increasing moisture and rain over Kodiak Island beginning Sunday
night. As the front progresses northward across the Gulf, moderate
to heavy rain will spread along the coastal areas of PWS and snow
in the higher elevations through Tuesday. Some isolated to
scattered showers are possible further inland, with Anchorage Bowl
and the Mat-Su Valleys remaining mostly dry with the downslope
easterly flow, but a rain or two cannot completely be ruled out.

Additionally, the latest operational runs are not in complete
agreement just yet with overall track, position, strength of the
aforementioned low. However, they are converging on a solution
for a storm force barrier jet to form along the north gulf coast
late Monday evening and Monday night. Winds will then decrease to
gales to small crafts for the rest of the marine zones as the low
weakens and departs in the southeastern Gulf on Tuesday evening.
Stay tuned as we refine the forecast.

&&
.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA (Days 1 through 3: This
afternoon through Tuesday)...

A weakening low pressure system has moved north of the area.
However the moisture associated with it will result in periods of
rain showers through this evening. Tonight a weak transitory
ridge along with weak cold air advection will allow for some
clearing with a few lingering rain and snow showers mainly over
the higher terrain. Areas around Sleetmute and Aniak may see a
rain snow mix overnight as showers wind down. Otherwise
temperatures will be a few degrees cooler tonight mainly in the
upper 20s and low 30s for most populated areas. Some shallow
ground fog is possible across Bristol Bay tomorrow morning, but
not expected it to impact the area too much as winds above the
surface should stay strong enough to mix it out in most areas.

The next low pressure system will bring in more rain on Sunday
with breezy conditions, however with slightly warmer air arriving
this will keep snow levels above 2500 feet. The rain will
continue into Monday as the low tracks along the southwest coast
towards Bristol Bay by Monday afternoon.

Another brief break in the rain is expected by Monday night and
Tuesday morning as a ridge moves over the area with another
slightly cooler morning on Tuesday. Another frontal system will
bring more rain into the area by Tuesday afternoon. So overall the
wet and unsettled weather will continue for the foreseeable
future.

&&

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

The strong westerly winds across the AKPEN and eastern Bering
will begin to weaken through tomorrow morning as the pressure
gradient relaxes and a ridge of high pressure moves briefly across
the area.

Next in line will be another gale force low pressure system moving
across the Bering and Aleutians this will bring another round of
moderate rain to some areas as well as strong winds to the
Pribilofs tomorrow night. The strong winds will move across the
eastern Bering and Aleutians and the AKPEN on Monday with gusty
winds across the gaps as northwesterly flow develops.

The second low just mentioned will quickly move east late Monday.
It will be replaced by a complex low pressure system and occluded
front that will move across the Bering and Aleutians Monday
through Tuesday bringing more moderate to heavy rain across the
area and a swath of Gale force winds. The bottom line is that the
unsettled weather will continue with periods of Gale force winds.

&&

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

Gulf: A strong low in the Gulf on Tuesday produces low end storm
force winds along the North Gulf Coast as well as high end gales
along the Southern Gulf through Tuesday morning. Seas may reach as
high as 20-25 feet through Tuesday morning. Winds and waves
rapidly diminish throughout the day and into Wednesday morning as
the low dissipates.

Bering: A low in the western Bering produces gale force winds
across the Aleutian Islands through early Wednesday morning. Winds
and waves diminish throughout the day Wednesday as the low
crosses over the Alaska Peninsula.

&&

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

A low over the Gulf dissipates rather rapidly as it pushes
onshore on Wednesday. Remnant energy merges with the base of a
trough extending off a Bering low, producing a broad upper level
longwave trough pattern over much of the state. Persistent low
pressure over the Gulf will keep conditions showery, with much of
the moisture inflow being shunted off towards the Panhandle. Any
moisture that makes its way northwards will be able to produce
precipitation along the upslope regions of the mountain ranges
along the Southcentral Coast. Further west, the Bering low brings
gusty winds and areas of heavy rain to the Aleutians before
pushing into the Southwest Mainland. This system moves across the
Alaska Peninsula and enters the Gulf of Alaska by early Thursday
morning, it then lingers in the Gulf, weakening slowly, as we
enter the weekend. A third system enters the western Bering by
Saturday, catching the remnants of the Gulf low in its trough and
elongating the Bering low.
