Northern Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Fairbanks AK
347 PM AKST Wed Jan 13 2021

..SYNOPSIS...
Gusty winds and blowing snow will continue along the Chukchi Sea
Coast into the weekend. Gusty northeasterly winds will develop
over summits north of Fairbanks on Thursday bringing some blowing
snow. A system moving north over the Interior will bring chances
for snow to the Interior on Friday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
The 13/12 UTC models generally initialized well when compared when
compared to observational data. The models differ on the details
of the system that will bring snow to the Interior on Friday. The
NAM is much more enthusiastic on bringing in snow while the GFS
mainly keeps the snow north of Fairbanks. The ECMWF and the
Canadian are more middle of the road. We will take a more middle
of the road approach with our PoP forecast.

Aloft, at 500 mb, a ridge currently stretches from western Canada
into the eastern Interior, while a trough currently stretches from
a low in eastern Russia to the west coast of Alaksa. A 504 dam low
currently in the north Pacific will move north to be over Kodiak
Island by Thursday evening. This low will then move to the
northwest and will be over the Yukon Delta by Friday afternoon
before moving into the Bering Sea by Friday evening.

Central and Eastern Interior...
Gusty southerly gap winds are expected to develop in the Alaska
Range this evening and will persist into Thursday morning. The
ongoing Wind Advisory looks to be in good shape. The gap winds
will diminish by late Thursday morning. Thursday afternoon, we
expect gusty easterly Tanana Valley Jet winds to develop near
Delta Junction and gusty northeasterly winds will develop over
the higher terrain north of Fairbanks. Visibility will be reduced
at times over highway summits north of Fairbanks Thursday night.
A Winter Weather Advisory is being posted for zones 219, 220 and
221 in anticipation of the gusty winds and blowing snow Thursday
night. On Friday, a system will bring snow as it moves north
through the Interior. The models differ on how they handle this
situation with the NAM being much more enthusiastic about bringing
snow into Fairbanks. We went with a middle of the road solution
that kept the likely PoPs north of Fairbanks, but still kept
chance PoPs over Fairbanks.

North Slope and Brooks Range...
Winds along the Beaufort Sea Coast will continue to dissipate
evening as the area of high pressure in the Arctic pushes west.
As as a result of winds decreasing along the Beaufort Sea Coast
the visibility has improved. Earlier this afternoon we got rid of
the lingering warnings and advisories along eastern Arctic Coast.
Blizzard conditions are expected to persist along the western
Arctic Coast, especially near Point Lay, through Thursday
evening. Thursday night, we expect northerly gap winds to pick up
in the western Brooks Range. Easterly winds will also pick up
again on Thursday night as high pressure builds over the Arctic.
We aren't expecting any precipitation through Friday. Chances for
snow will increase on Friday night a front approaches from the
south.

West Coast and Western Interior...
A shortwave will bring light snow to the Seward Peninsula this
evening. Any accumulation is expected to be light. Another
shortwave will move from south to north over the West Coast and
Western Interior tonight and tomorrow bringing additional chances
for snowfall; however, any snowfall is expected to be light. There
is a better chance of snow on Friday as a front moves north over
the area; however, the models still disagree on the exact details
of this system at the moment.

Coastal Hazard Potential Days 3 and 4...None.

Extended Forecast Days 4-7...
The extended period begins on Saturday evening with the area under
a southerly flow pattern. Both the GFS and the ECMWF both show that
a stronger shortwave will move north along the coast Sunday night
and Monday. The models are also hinting at a front moving from
southeast to northwest across the forecast area Tuesday night and
Wednesday bringing snow. Thereafter, model agreement decreases.
