Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Juneau AK
245 PM AKDT Wed Jun 2 2021

.SHORT TERM...A short-wave/frontal band has been hung over the
Coast Mtns causing rain showers all day in Juneau and a good
portion of the rest of the panhandle with low ceilings. Before
the next short-wave overruns the current one this evening, there
is a break visible on satellite. Thin spots/breaks in the clouds
are seen along the outer coast between Cross Sound and Dixon
Entrance and into the southern inner channels around Ketchikan as
of 2pm. The next short-wave is wrapping around the parent low
currently over the central gulf and looks to be directed at the
northern panhandle. Therefore, the southern panhandle should see
more scattered showers through the evening while the the north
sees some slight easing in the late afternoon followed by a ramp
up in coverage/intensity again in the late evening. The low will
slowly weaken to a trough over the north/central gulf through
Thursday morning, but will keep the showers going for much of the
area, especially the north.

The next well developed low pressure system to follow in the
series of lows that have been affecting the region can be seen on
satellite this afternoon south of the Aleutians. Expect this low
to track E-ENE across the southern gulf through Thursday, then
approach the outside waters near Dixon Entrance on Friday. The
front ahead of the low will cause winds over the southern outside
waters and Clarence Strait to increase to 30kt Thursday night into
Friday. The nearby land areas of Prince of Wales and Ketchikan
will likely see wind gusts of around 40 mph during this period as
well as moderate to heavy rain showers (see hydro section below
for more).

The low track also means the northern panhandle will fall under
more offshore flow and therefore decreasing POP/QPF starting
Thursday night. The Yakutat area will likely even see partly
clouds skies Friday afternoon. For this reason, have continued the
trend of lowering POP and decreased cloud cover slightly. The
offshore flow and sunny breaks should help Friday be several
degrees warmer across the north than Wed/Thurs, and closer to
normal. The south however, will keep well below normal highs.

Models are in good agreement on the low taking the further south
track and remaining at about the Dixon Entrance latitude. What
they disagree on is how quickly it moves east and weakens to an
open trough. The GFS keeps the low in tact the longest over the
outside waters, and eventually east early Sunday morning. The
ECMWF, followed closely by the NAM, is the fastest to open the low
to a trough and push it through Dixon Entrance early in the day
on Saturday. For this forecast package ending Friday night/early
Saturday, we have leaned closer to the GFS due to its good run to
run consistency.

.LONG TERM.../Friday to Wednesday as of 10 pm Tuesday / Friday
starts as the complex multi-center low aloft over the Bering Sea,
western half of the state and the western Gulf of Alaska begins to
unravel from the solid cross model agreement.

The upper low that was in the western gulf weakens as it moves to
west of Prince of Wales Island roughly, while the upper level low
that was near the central Aleutians has weakened and moved into or
through the western Gulf of Alaska. By Sunday an upper level low
seems to be near Haida Gwaii, and in this position the onshore flow
is diverted to an offshore pattern, at least for a few days.
Long range solutions have started drying out or stopping the showers
over the panhandle for Sunday and Monday. Will need to watch this
more, as it sets up, the 20-30% PoPs could be much less. The start
of next week appears that it may be drier so have lowers PoPs a
bit more for Monday over the panhandle.

Overall confidence is average to slightly above average through
the weekend.

.HYDROLOGY...Rainfall continues to be above normal for this time
of year. Most rivers/streams are elevated as a result. Auke Lake
is hovering around bankfull and will continue to be monitored. The
precip rates letting up over the south tonight should help those
basins crest and lower some before the heavy rain moves back in
late Thursday night. Expecting around 0.75-2" for the southern
third of the panhandle Thurs night through Friday night, with the
bulk of that falling in the 12hrs between midnight and noon
Friday. The decrease in rainfall across the north on Friday will
allow those basins to fall, but should start to see some diurnal
change with added snow melt.
