Area forecast discussion, Sep 10, 2:28 PM AKDT, 1 hour 12 minutes before
Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Juneau AK
228 PM AKDT Fri Sep 10 2021
.SHORT TERM.../Through Sunday night/...The area of low pressure
spinning in the gulf will continue to spin while moving towards
the coast. This will keep rain showers in the forecast for
tonight.
Saturday, the low will move southeast so showers will more likely
be found in the south while the northern half will see isolated
or scattered showers. Some thunder is possible around Prince of
Wales island Saturday afternoon. Total rainfall amounts through
Saturday are around a half inch to an inch and a half with locally
higher amounts.
Saturday night, the low will weaken as it moves onshore so the
north will dry out while the south will see showers becoming
isolated or scattered in nature.
On Sunday, another low will begin to track along southern Alaska.
This low will push another front into the panhandle, bringing
another round of rain and strong winds. Current timing of the
front puts the strongest winds, around 20 to 30 mph, in the gulf
during the day and along the coast Sunday night.
Sunday's forecast for the panhandle isn’t looking too bad with
isolated to scattered showers under mostly cloudy skies and
generally light winds around 5 to 10 mph.
Temperatures will continue to be unremarkable with highs in the
50s to near 60s and lows in the 40s to near 50.
.LONG TERM.../Sun through Fri as of 10 pm Thu/ Upper level
pattern for the long range has not changed all that much from
yesterday. A broad upper trough remains over Alaska and the Bering
Sea area with general SW flow over the panhandle through mid next
week. An upper low in the Bering Sea is still expected to drift E
into interior Alaska early next week, though the timing of
individual waves rotating around the upper low is still somewhat
uncertain for early to mid next week. Toward the end of the
extended period that upper low looks to break up and more zonal
flow takes over, but the timing is rather uncertain at this time.
At the surface, the next front will just be starting to move into
the area. Timing of this front has changed compared to yesterday
with guidance slowing it down to the point that it hits the
panhandle more on Mon afternoon rather then in the early morning.
Expected winds and rain have not changed compared to yesterday
except for the timing. Still expecting 20 to 30 kt winds for the
gulf waters and 15 to 20 kt winds for many inner channel areas.
As for Rain most of it is still aimed at the NE gulf coast.
Expect around 1.5 inches of rain there with lower amounts the
farther SE you go.
After Mon, forecast confidence starts to suffer as different
models have different ideas on how to handle the various short
waves that are wrapping around the upper low over the state and
how the upper low eventually breaks down. There are a few possible
systems that could effect the panhandle mid to late next week,
but there is no confidence on when or how strong they will be
(there are some indication of something coming through Tue night
and Wed, but there is little agreement on what form it will take).
What is more confident is that SW to W onshore flow will prevail
over the panhandle overall, and we are expected to remain wet for
most of the extended period (with the occasional storm). In
addition confidence is increasing on cooler air starting to move
into the area from Tue onward. 850 mb temps over the northern half
of the panhandle are expected to be near 0C. This has resulted in
the lowering of temperatures for mid next week by around 5
degrees (northern panhandle highs near 50 now rather then the mid
50s) and snow levels in the mountains will likely be dropping from
around 6000 feet to around 3700 feet over the north by Wed.
Combined with the damp conditions still around, this may result in
some snow showing up on mountain peaks mid next week.
