Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
451 PM AKDT Sat Oct 16 2021

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

An impressive 180 knot jet streak at 300mb is situated over the
north Pacific just south of the western Aleutians. A broad upper
level trough is in place over the Bering while a transient ridge
moves over the Alaska Peninsula. A front extending from a low
centered over the western Bering (just north of Shemya) is
gradually lifting inland over Southwest Alaska. A vertically
stacked low is nearly stationary over the southeastern Gulf while
a weak surface low centered near Middleton Island is producing
some light rain across the northern Gulf coast. Most of
Southcentral saw some low level stratus this morning, and that has
persisted across the Anchorage Bowl, Kenai Peninsula, and Mat-Su
Valleys. Along the Aleutian Chain, gusty southerly winds and rain
are spreading in along the frontal boundary as it moves from west
to east across the Bering today. Surface observations on the
Pribilof Islands also recorded storm force gusts earlier today
with the front progressing eastward.

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

Synoptically, model solutions are in good agreement. The main
forecast challenge continues to be the smaller scale details. In
particular, models are struggling with the progression of a front
associated with a low in the Gulf as it moves from west to east.
Additionally, models disagree on the development of several
smaller lows forming along the front through Monday. At this time
the NAM solution places the low center farther north than the
GFS/Canadian. Farther west, there is good agreement regarding the
arrival of another low arriving over the northern Bering by
Tuesday. Overall, forecast confidence across Southcentral Alaska beyond
Monday remains low.

&&

.AVIATION...

PANC...Low stratus is expected to erode once southeasterly flow
picks up through Turnagain Arm tonight. Winds at the terminal are
expected to remain northerly Sunday with gusts in the afternoon
hours. With persistent southeasterly flow through the Arm, have
introduced wind shear beginning late tonight. Threat of wind shear
is expected to last through Sunday.

&&
.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 to 3, tonight
through Tuesday)...

An upper level trough passing over Prince William Sound has
induced the formation of a small, weak surface low near Middleton
Island this evening. Areas of rain and snow will continue
drifting near and north of the center through tonight over areas
including Valdez and Cordova. To the west, stubborn low stratus
along the western Kenai Peninsula and over the MatSu Valleys is
slowly beginning to break up base on satellite imagery. What's
left of the cloud deck should continue to mix out overnight
tonight as southeast flow increases ahead of what will be the next
impactful system to affect parts of the region over the next
several days.

By early Sunday morning, a strong front associated with a Bering
low will enter the western Gulf and spread a band of moderate to
heavy precipitation and potent southeast winds northeast across
Kodiak Island. Winds up to storm force are now expected in the
southern Gulf ahead of the front on Sunday as it begins to slow
down and nearly stall out on a west-east axis. Warm sea surface
temperatures and decent warm air advection with the southeast
winds should allow for mainly rain to fall at the onset of
precipitation in Kodiak, though a very brief period of snow or
rain/snow mix is possible late tonight before changing to all
rain. Precipitation aided by onshore and upslope flow will also
spread north along the Kenai Peninsula and around Prince William
Sound, but downslope drying to the northwest across much of the
MatSu Valleys and Anchorage area should keep things generally dry
here. Snow is expected to transition to or mix with rain at low
elevations by Sunday afternoon along the eastern Kenai Peninsula
with continued warm, southeast flow off of the Gulf. Higher
elevations above around 1000 to 1500 feet over the Chugach and
Kenai Mountains will likely to see all snow lasting through Sunday
night.

By early Monday, the entire large, complex low will have
transitioned from the eastern Bering to the Gulf, with one or more
smaller centers likely to spin up along the Low's gale to
possibly storm force front wrapping across much of the Gulf. There
should be a break in the steady precip along the north Gulf Coast
and Kenai Peninsula by this point in time, as low level winds
back to a more northeast direction and shut off the moist onshore
flow and related upslope enhancement.

On Tuesday, a digging trough moving into the Eastern Aleutians
and AKPen will begin to interact with the then weakening Gulf low,
effectively pulling it back north towards the Gulf coast.
Increasing chances for rain and snow are expected once again as
the system moves back north, with the highest chances again
focused along the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William sound.

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

The front off a larger Bering low reached the Southwest Coast
earlier this afternoon. Snow has already been reported in both
Kipnuk and Toksook Bays and winds in both areas have already
started to gradually increase. Winds along the coast are likely
to continue to increase throughout the rest of the day today due
to the tight thermal gradient before beginning to diminish by
tomorrow morning. A warmer air mass is traveling with the front,
thus, there may be a transition to a rain/snow mix at some point
this evening before turning back to all snow later tonight. By
tomorrow, there will be another transition back to rain/snow or
all rain. Snowfall spreads further inland later tonight as the
front continues moving across Southwest. The foothills of the
Kilbuck Mountains may end up seeing upwards of 6-8 inches, while
the lower elevations near Dillingham and Togiak may see anywhere
from 2-4 inches of accumulation possible. Snow will, again,
transition to a rain/snow mix and eventually all rain tomorrow.
Anticipate gusty winds along the Southwest Coast and the foothills
of the Kilbuck Mountains creating areas of blowing snow through
the night tonight. The front moves off to the east by tomorrow
afternoon, allowing winds to gradually continue decreasing through
the overnight hours Sunday night, and conditions to dry out. This
pattern will be short-lived, existing for a quick 30-hours before
the next front off a new Kamchatka low reaches the Southwest
Coast late Monday night.

&&

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

A strong jet streak south of the Aleutians is helping increase
winds on the back side of a low currently spinning in the Central
Bering. The jet becomes strongly amplified by tonight, digging the
trough across the Aleutians and dipping into the North Pacific.
Storm force winds are expected to track southward across the
Northern and Western Bering and down through the Central
Aleutians through tonight. The associated front reached the
Southwest coast earlier this afternoon, with areas of snow already
being reported from Kipnuk to Toksook Bay. There is a distinct
thermal gradient along the frontal boundary that is aiding in a
stronger wind field along the Southwest Coast, as well as being
wrapped around the northern edge of the system. Winds along the
coast are expected to get to high end gale force, while storm
force winds are likely along the northern Bering tonight.
Precipitation along the eastern Bering and the Alaska Peninsula
will likely start out as snow before transitioning to a rain/snow
mix and eventually all rain as a warmer air mass approaches from
behind the front. Heaviest precipitation will be along the AKPen
and the Bristol Bay coast.

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

Bering/Aleutians

Forecast confidence is above average for Tuesday and Wednesday as
guidance shows similar solutions with respect to the placement and
intensity of synoptic scale features. Forecast confidence
decreases on Thursday as guidance shows significant differences
in solutions with the placement and intensity of a low pressure
system in the western and central Bering/Aleutians.

Gulf of Alaska

Forecast confidence remains above average across the Gulf of
Alaska during the days 3-5 period as guidance shows similar
solutions in the placement and intensity of synoptic scale
features. Minor differences exist between guidance with respect to
the development and decay of the barrier jet expected in the
northern Gulf on Tuesday and Wednesday. There is a high confidence
gale force winds will occur in the northern Gulf during that
time.

&&

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

A cloudy, wet and cool pattern is expected across Southcentral
during the extended period. A positively-tilted upper level trough
is expected to extend from the northern Bering Sea into the
central Gulf of Alaska. The pattern will also be wet in
Southcentral because the trough-axis will remain southwest of the
Kenai Peninsula which will allow for a predominant onshore flow
pattern while easterly upper level waves move across the area. For
now, there is lower confidence with respect to precipitation
type, though snow becomes more likely as elevation increases. The
Bering/Aleutians will be in a persistent cloudy and cool pattern
with showers as broad upper level troughing will remain in place
across the area.
