Area forecast discussion, Jul 30, 1:44 PM AKDT, 15 hours 32 minutes before
Northern Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fairbanks AK 144 PM AKDT Fri Jul 30 2021 .SYNOPSIS...The rain will continue over western areas and spread into the Central Brooks Range tonight. Heavy rains in the Central Brooks Range, Koyukuk River Basin, and Kobuk River Basin will produce some flooding so Flood Watches and Advisories are in effect. Heaviest rainfall will be over the southern Seward Peninsula across the Middle Yukon River Valley to the Upper Koyukuk, and Upper Kobuk Basins, and along the south slopes of the Central Brooks Range. Rainfall amounts through Sunday of 2 to 6 inches with the heaviest amounts along the Brooks Range. From Livengood southeast drying and warming with decreasing clouds Saturday. && .DISCUSSION... Models...30/12Z solutions are in good agreement through the midrange and have come together in the extended periods. They struggle with timing of the precipitation events moving into the West Coast and Central Interior, but they show similar amounts of rainfall. Surface initialized well against local 30/15Z analysis with the forecast lows about 2 mb weaker than the analysis. Once again will be leaning quite a bit on the current forecast grids to maintain continuity. Aloft...At 500 hpa...Troughing remains across the Northern Arctic, while troughing has pushed north over the Western Arctic with a 541 dam low 200 northeast of Wrangel Island, a 540 dam low just east of Wrangel Island, a 541 dam low over the Northeast Gulf of Anadyr, and a 541 dam low over the Dateline near 60N. Strong southwest flow, mainly north of the Alaska Range, continues over the state. Weak ridging holding on over the Southeast Interior and extending southwest to a 573 dam high over the Copper River Basin to a 573 dam high over Lake Illiamna then south over 160W. Saturday morning will not bring little change to the overall pattern, with the exception of southwest flow increasing as the low over the Dateline moves over St Lawrence Island at 537 dam as troughing remains over the Chukotsk Peninsula and the Western Arctic. Saturday afternoon the low will be over the Chukchi Sea as the lows merge into a single 539 dam low. Sunday morning sees no change in the strong southwest flow as the low moves to 100 nm north of Point Lay at 541 dam with little change in the ridging to the south. Sunday the ridging pushes north to the Yukon River in the afternoon and flow turns more from the west late Sunday. At 850 hpa...No change from yesterday as a dome of +10C or warmer will persist over the far Southeast Interior while the 0C isotherm will move over the Northwest Arctic Coast with the remainder of the forecast area somewhere in between. Surface...Low pressure west and north of Livengood with weak high pressure in the Southeast Interior and south of the Alaska Range. Low pressure to the west is anchored by a 1003 mb low in the Southwest Arctic, and a 992 mb low that has moved to the Dateline near 60N. Little change is expected by Saturday afternoon in the overall pattern, as the low near the Dateline moves into the Chukchi Sea and merges with the low that was in the Southwest Arctic at 992 mb. A 1014 mb high will move into the Southeast Interior. By Sunday morning high pressure will push north to the Yukon River as the low in the Chukchi Sea moves into the Arctic 100 nm north of Utqiagvik. Arctic Coast and Brooks Range...Just not seeing much change as cloudy conditions prevail with showers and areas of fog. Inland downslope off the Brooks Range will keep most areas dry, but cloudy. Highs in the mid 40s to mid 50s, with lows in the 40s for most locations along the coast. Warmer inland with highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Winds southeast 5 to 15 mph becoming southwest by Sunday morning in most areas. West Coast and Western Interior...Rain, followed by more rain. Flood Watches and Advisories in effect for the area. 2 to 6 inches of rain through Sunday with the heaviest amounts on the Southern Seward Peninsula, Nulato Hills, and along the south slopes of the Brooks Range. Highs along the coast mid 40s to mid 50s, while inland highs will be in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Lows will be in the 40s to mid 50s. Winds southeast to southwest at 5 to 20 mph. Central and Eastern Interior...Partly cloudy to the southeast of Fairbanks with cloudy conditions from Fairbanks northwest. Heavy rain expected in the Koyukuk Basin so Flood Advisory has been issued for small streams and creeks. Winds southeast to southwest to 10 mph. High in the 60s and 70s, and lows in the 50s. Coastal Hazard Potential Days 3 and 4...None. Extended forecast for days 4 to 7...Still looks like a return to summer like weather and temperatures for the Central and Eastern Interior, while the West Coast and Arctic will stay in a south to southwest flow with cloudy conditions and showers. && .Fire Weather...Interior locations southeast of a line from Fort Yukon to Fairbanks to Denali will be drying out, while areas to the west and north will remain cloudy, cool, and wet as another weather system pushes rain into the area through Saturday. High temperatures will range from the 50s in the west to the 70s in the Southeast Interior. Overnight lows generally in the 50s. Minimum Relative Humidity will be lowest in the Upper Yukon Flats as it falls into the mid 30s, and will range up to the mid 50s in the Middle Yukon Valley. Winds southeast to southwest at 5 to 20 mph. Winds gusting around 30 mph west of Tanana. Relative Humidity recovery will be good. && .Hydrology...Flood Advisory for Nome and Snake Rivers extended into Sunday as another 1 to 3 inches of rain is expected through Monday. Most river levels west and north of Fairbanks are falling, but will level off or rise the next couple days. 2 to 6 inches of rain expected in the Upper Kobuk and Koyukuk Basins will bring bankfull to minor flood conditions to streams and creeks in the area so a Flood Advisory for small streams and creeks is in effect for those basins. Water levels in small stream and creeks in the Interior southeast of Livengood have leveled off and will slowly fall through the weekend.
