What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Anchorage, AK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Aug 18, 4:21 PM AKDT, 11 hours 33 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 18, 4:21 PM AKDT, 11 hours 33 minutes before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 421 PM AKDT Fri Aug 18 2023 .ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS... The forecast area is split between a developing polar jet over the Brooks Range and Northwest Alaska and a weak subtropical jet south of the Aleutian Chain. A weak surface low is currently south of the Alaska Peninsula, bringing variable winds and light rain to the area. Farther to the north, westerly winds associated with a low over the high arctic are advecting moisture, cloud cover and cooler temperatures into Southwest. Over Southcentral, the clouds are kept at bay for the most part by the Aleutian and Alaskan Ranges. To the far west, clouds are moving in from a low near Kamchatka and a gale force front. Areas of fog is reported near St Paul Island and Iliamna but along the northern Gulf coast, such as Cordova and Homer, are under low stratus. && .MODEL DISCUSSION... Models continue to be in good agreement in the short term with zonal flow over mainland continuing through the weekend. Differences in position, track and strength of a series of weak low pressure systems moving through the Aleutians and into the northern Gulf of Alaska emerge in the model suite Monday and Tuesday of next week. && .AVIATION... PANC...VFR conditions and light winds will persist into Saturday morning. There is a slight chance for fog, but anything that develops is expected to be patchy. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3: Tonight through Monday)... A very quiet pattern in place is set to persist through the start of next week, with much of the outlook area expected to remain dry over the weekend in spite of steady increase in cloud cover. A small, weak surface low entering the southwest corner of the gulf will continue to drift east tonight into Saturday and briefly weaken the ridge sitting in place this afternoon across Southcentral. The track of this low continues to shift south compared to earlier indications, so much so that much of Kodiak Island may end up dodging most of the areas of light rainfall following the low as it passes well to the southeast tonight. A weak surface trough drifting south of Prince William Sound will pivot northwest on Saturday around the Gulf low as it continues towards the eastern Gulf, and this may help focus a few areas of light rain along the coast. Otherwise, expect another day of at least partial sun away from the coastline with little chance for rain aside from a stray shower or two over the mountains. Upper ridging will rebound as the low departs between Saturday night and Sunday along with an increase in west-southwest flow aloft. A decent push of up inlet flow beginning Saturday evening and lasting into Sunday may help pull low level marine stratus up into the Mat-Su Valleys, but this should burn off as the day progresses. Most of the region will remain dry, except over the far northern Susitna Valley near a trough moving into the Interior. Forecast uncertainty increases by Monday, with models struggling with the handling of another weak North Pacific low attempting to lift northeast towards Kodiak, with uncertainty also increasing for the progression of a trough shifting from the Y-K Delta region into the Alaska Range. For now, it looks like the ridge axis will try to hang on despite these two features attempting to erode it, extending the dry spell at least one more day. && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA/BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3: Today through Monday)... As of Friday afternoon, the low that has been tracking south of the eastern Aleutians has lifted slightly north over the Alaska Peninsula becoming nearly stacked. This low will shift eastward into the central Gulf tonight with decreasing rain shower activity across the eastern Aleutians and Alaska Peninsula. Back to the west, an upper trough will slowly progress eastwards with a few scattered rain showers moving through the western and central Aleutians before the the trough deepens over the northern Pacific and gets pinched off from the main westerly flow before gradually weakening. A surface ridge will reside over eastern half of the Bering this weekend with the upper ridge starting to build over the eastern Bering tonight...eventually extending northward into Southwest Alaska and Bristol Bay area through tomorrow. Generally dry conditions will accompany the ridge, but could see some upslope showers develop along the western slopes of the Kuskokwim and Alaska Range Saturday afternoon as southwesterly boundary layer flow sets up. The latter half of the weekend and into early next week will be tied to a Kamchatka low that will deepen as it moves towards the far western Aleutian Islands. Gale force winds will accompany the front as it moves into the furthest west islands and then weakens as in moves into the Northern Pacific. The upper low and longwave trough will continue to translate east bringing increasing chances for light rain to Kuskokwim Delta and Lower Kuskokwim Valley by Sunday and Monday. && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7: Tuesday through Friday)... The upper level Arctic low is slowly weakening and moving to the Northeast through the Beaufort Sea. Its trough extending through the Bering also weakens, but to a lesser degree, and holds its position from the Chukchi across the Aleutians. Lows approaching from the west get caught in the flow and turned into the Bering, bringing locally heavy rains and gusty winds to most of the Eastern two-thirds of the Bering and Western Alaska. Lows moving up from the North Pacific are deflected towards the East, sending their rain and winds over the Alaska Peninsula, the Gulf of Alaska, Kodiak Island and the Southcentral as the lows exit around Southeast Alaska through Friday. Model uncertainty continues, but is lessening through the end of the week. && SYNOPSIS AND MODEL DISCUSSION...CCC/RUX SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...AS SOUTHWEST ALASKA/BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS...PP LONG TERM...MK
