Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Juneau AK
255 PM AKDT Mon Mar 29 2021

.SHORT TERM.../Monday evening through Wednesday evening/ The forecast
is on track this afternoon as moisture streams over a broad ridge
over the North Pacific and into the Panhandle. Precipitation
continues to overspread the region and is expected to persist into
Tuesday. P-type began as snow for most areas, but will transition
over to rain through the rest of the afternoon and evening hours
as colder air at the surface slowly erodes. Snow levels will
continue to rise across the Panhandle; however accumulating snow
is still expected at higher elevations along the Klondike Highway.
A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for White Pass for up
to 10 inches of snow 6 AM Tuesday to 6am Wednesday. At sea level,
rainfall amounts upwards of 1.00" to 1.25" are possible through
Tuesday evening, especially along higher terrain of the Coast
Mountains and Outer Coast. Lesser amounts around 0.25 to 0.50"
expected across the far Southern Panhandle and Prince of Wales
Island.

Little to no break in the precipitation as the next weather maker
moves into the region Tuesday night into Wednesday. A digging
trough over Western Alaska moves southward into the Gulf during
this timeframe. Westerly flow aloft turns southerly ahead of the
approaching trough with a strong 100+ kt jet streak with
subtropical connections pumping in ample moisture into Southern
Alaska. At the same time, a surface low near Prince William Sound
pushes a front into the Panhandle late Tuesday night through early
Wednesday morning. As the front moves in, the stream of moisture
from the south will push southeastward through the Panhandle
increasing rainfall coverage and intensity. From Tuesday evening
through Wednesday evening another 1.00" to 1.50" of rainfall could
fall across the entire Panhandle.

P-type will be predominately rain as southerly flow should keep
temperatures above freezing at sea level. Models do continue to
hint at cooler air (-6C to -7C) at 850 mb and lower 1000-850mb
thickness values around 1290m just ahead of the front late Tuesday
night which could allow for some areas to begin as a brief period
of snow. The best chance for accumulating snow will be higher
elevations along the Haines and Klondike Highways; however Yakutat
may cool down enough for minor accumulations as well. Low
confidence in the snow possibility at sea level, higher confidence
in the threat for accumulating snow along the highways. Overall
the main impact with this next weather system will be the heavy
rain threat and rising snow levels everywhere.

Main impacts from winds in the short term will be small craft
conditions developing in the Inner Channels as the front pushes in
Tuesday into Wednesday. Gale force winds possible along the outer
coast and far Southern Inner channels on Wednesday.

Overall confidence is around average for the short term.

.LONG TERM.../Wed through Mon as of 10 pm Sun/ Most of the
extended period is dominated by a cold upper trough that will
settle over the area mid week and then stick around into the
weekend. The air mass coming down with it is somewhat cold for
this time of year with NAEFS forecast temperatures around 1
standard deviation below normal at 500 mb and 700 mb. The cold air
also sticks around into the weekend. There is some hints of a
brief weak warmup early next week as a flat ridge tries to move
in, but there is no consistency from the various extended range
models on timing (some hold off on that ridge until Tue rather
then Mon).

For the panhandle, that cold air mentioned above does not reach us
until Wed evening in the wake of a gale force front that will be
blowing through the panhandle Wed. The details on this front have
not changed all that much from the previous forecast with most of
the wind (gale force for the SE gulf and southern panhandle marine
areas, and gusty winds for land areas especially for the outer
coast and southern panhandle) and heavier precip (mostly rain
around 1 inch of rainfall is still expected) still pushing
through during the day Wed. Persistent onshore flow behind the
front as a weak low persists in the northern gulf will not only
bring the colder air in, but will also promote continued precip
from showers that will be blown in from the W. 850 mb temps in the
cold air will be around -7 to -9C over most of the panhandle so
most of these showers will be in the form of snow except during
the afternoons where solar heating warms temps up into the mid 30s
to low 40s. Any accumulations are expected to be low and mainly
occur at night.

Forecast becomes increasingly uncertain into the weekend and early
next week as the differences in handling of the upper level
features affects where, and how fast, the northern gulf surface
low slides SE (and whether it gets replaced with another low in
the same place). There are some indications of a drier period of
weather for sometime this weekend in between the retreating low
and the one that may take its place, but there is no agreement on
when (Most likely on Sat, but there is also a chance on Sun as
well) so overall chance pops remain across a wide area.
