Southeast Alaska Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED
National Weather Service Juneau AK
837 PM AKDT Mon Sep 27 2021

.SHORT TERM...An area of low pressure spinning off the coast of
Haida Gwaii continues to weaken as it tracks south, out of the
AOR. Bands of precipitation rotating around this low have allowed
for steady shower activity through the central and southern
panhandle today but will be diminishing through this evening.

Behind the low, ridging will build across the gulf and through
the inner channels causing decreasing clouds this evening. Winds
turn offshore in the lower levels and there is reason to be
cautiously optimistic for substantial breaks in the clouds,
especially through the first half of the day on Tuesday.
Unfortunately, this break in the weather will prove to be short-
lived. Cloud cover will once again increase ahead of the next
system moving in for Wednesday.

Wednesday's system will swing in from the SW, reaching the
southern half of the panhandle late Tuesday evening into
Wednesday morning. Northerly outflow winds will be fighting
against the northern progression of precipitation limiting
rainfall amounts across the north. There is uncertainty with this
system and its track. Forecast models suggest a developing wave
to ride up along the front Wednesday. As the parent low rotates
in the gulf, this secondary wave is expected push through the
southern panhandle but confidence in exact timing and intensity
is low. Confidence is higher that QPF totals will be
significantly greater across the south with the secondary wave.
Overall, 48 hr totals of 1 to 3 inches is expected across the
south with less than 1 inch expected across the northern
panhandle.

Winds will increase ahead of Wednesday's system late Tuesday
night. Gale force winds are expected along the outside waters
with small craft advisories through inner channels. Over land,
winds 15 to 20 mph can be expected as the front pushes through the
panhandle. Temperatures through the short-term remain seasonal
with highs in the upper 40s to low 50s and night time lows in the
low to mid 40s.

.LONG TERM.../ Wednesday through Monday as of 9 pm Sunday / A
low that moved into the east central gulf becomes nearly
vertically stacked low Wednesday. About the low center showers
will continue rotating into the panhandle. A trailing wave on the
old frontal band extending back into the north central pacific,
and this wave is expected to develop and deepen to the mid 980 mbs
over Haida Gwaii late Wednesday night to very early Thursday
morning. This will spread another burst of moderate rain across
the southern portion of the panhandle. There could be an issue
with elevated water levels from the first front, and the new
system adding to it. What is left of the low and and associated
moisture will be moved inland in advance of the next potentially
big system for the Friday- Saturday time frame.

The later time frames have issues with strength and track of the
low moving into the region around next weekend. Have not tried to
fine tune to a particular solution, and if changes where being
added to the forecast leaned towards the blend that WPC used. Will
be watching the extended time frames, and hope that differences
will settle out for the last couple days of the forecast package.

Forecast confidence is good to Thursday and drops to below
average for the weekend and early part of next weekend.
