Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Juneau AK
252 PM AKDT Tue Sep 21 2021
.SHORT TERM.../Through Thursday/ Rather breezy and damp day across
the panhandle. A low in the northern gulf is pushing a weather
front through the area that is producing some gusty winds,
showers, and some isolated thunderstorms along the NE gulf coast.
Currently winds of 25 to 30 kt are blowing up Lynn Canal and in
Cross Sound while some gusts to 30 mph have been seen in Juneau,
today. Rainfall been moderate at times with totals of around 1 to
nearly 3 inches in some locations over the last 24 hours.
The short range forecast features two system of note. System
number one is the one currently effecting the area. Showers over
the panhandle and 20 to 30 kt westerly flow in the gulf remains
mostly unchanged from the previous forecast. What has changed is
that the low in the northern gulf is now expected to hold
together more as it jumps inland into the southern Yukon tonight.
forecast pressure gradients in the northern inner channels
tonight are expected to reach nearly 5 mb between PAJN and PAGY.
The result is an increase in wind for a few of the northern inner
channels tonight particularly Lynn Canal (increased to 35 to 40
kt Gale), and Skagway (gusts to 40 mph now).
System number two shows up for late Wed night and Thu. This system
looks to be the stronger of the two bringing another round of rain
and wind. Winds in the gulf will feature widespread gales and
even storm force winds expected near Cape Suckling on Thu.
Panhandle winds will feature widespread small craft, and even some
gales (near the outer coast and in Clarance Strait) which is an
increase for some areas from the previous forecast. Many land
areas will also feature gusty winds with 45 to 55 mph gusts
expected for the southern panhandle and outer coast Thu. Looked at
the possibility of 60+ mph gusts, but confidence of occurrence is
low with the main low so far west, low level jet strength topping
out at around 50 to 55 kt at 925 mb, and the front weakening as
it approaches. Can't completely rule out one or two gusts that
high in isolated areas, but widespread frequent gusts of 60+ mph
are not expected.
As for rainfall, both systems will feature periods of moderate to
potentially heavy rainfall, but the heaviest rainfall will be
with the system on Thu. Overall forecast has not changed for this
with upwards of 1 to 3 inches of rainfall expected. The highest
amounts will be in the NE gulf coast (due to W to SW flow into the
terrain) and along the southern panhandle (due to catching the
northern edge of an atmospheric river).
.LONG TERM.../Thursday through Monday night/...The extended
period will be an active, stormy period for SE Alaska and the
surrounding waters as robust low pressure systems move through the
Gulf and into the panhandle. Cold air advection filtering into
the panhandle behind the Monday/Tuesday system will also see nippy
temperatures in some areas, and it is looking possible that parts
of the highways like White Pass may see a bit of snow Wednesday
night through Thursday morning. Thursday will see an upper level
trough displace the ridge and march across the gulf. Its surface
reflection, a strong frontal system and associated low, will bring
with it abundant wind and rain to the area. Operational models
have come into decent agreement on the gale force front entering
the panhandle on Thursday. The parent low is progged to stay over
the N Gulf through Friday before dissipating over Southcentral AK
through Saturday. This system will continue to impact the area
through at least Friday, before rain diminishes Saturday and
Sunday. There are some indications that offshore flow may become
predominant in the lower levels later on Saturday and into Sunday,
which would lead to a brief period of drier weather before
another possible system arrives late Sunday or Monday. Guidance
rapidly diverges after Monday, but it looks likely that the active
weather pattern will be set to continue.
