Area forecast discussion, Jun 13, 6:47 AM AKDT, 9 hours 47 minutes before
Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 647 AM AKDT Sat Jun 13 2026 .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3/ Saturday through Monday evening)... Discussion: The overall weather pattern across Alaska remains characterized by broad high pressure centered over the Bering Sea and western Canada, with several embedded lows and shortwaves rotating around the periphery of the ridge. The ridge is beginning to lift northward and elongating this morning as a stout upper-level low and occluded surface low move from the North Pacific northwestward toward southern Kodiak Island and the southern shores of the AKPen. The associated front is now pushing north of Kodiak City and into the northern Gulf, with widespread rain and gale-force easterly winds across the coastal waters. As of 4 AM, rain is overspreading the Kenai Peninsula with the northern edge of precipitation in a ling from south of Cordova to south of Kenai. Rain will continue expanding northward across the eastern Kenai Peninsula, Prince William Sound, and the northern Gulf Coast through Saturday. Periods of moderate rainfall are expected, particularly along coastal and upslope locations where terrain enhancement will maximize precipitation totals. Inland areas west of the Chugach Mountains will remain comparatively drier, though increasing cloud cover and isolated showers are expected. The strong gap winds the developed yesterday evening have diminished in intensity overnight. However, as the front moves inland later today, a second round of southerly gaps winds for the Typical locations - Turnagain Arm into Anchorage, and the Knik and Copper River Valleys - will redevelop. Again, gusts of 25 to 35 mph are possible this afternoon through this late this evening. Attention then focuses back on the Gulf for late Saturday as another strong area of low pressure develops, driving toward the Barren Islands for Sunday morning. This system will have good upper level support, with a potent shortwave riding along its front as well as a 120kt jet streak in the upper-levels. High end gales are expected out ahead of and along the front with storm-force gusts across the coast south of Cordova and into Prince William Sound. Another round of heavy rain will also drive into the coast, with another 1 to 3 inches of rain expected on top of what will have fallen today. The bigger impact from this system for Southcentral, however, will be wind as the low center moves from the Barren Islands Sunday morning into Southwest Alaska Sunday afternoon. Cold air behind the front, along with a strong isallobaric max (pressure rises) behind the front will usher in gusty south to southeast winds for many locations as the front moves inland. Strong southerly/easterly winds in excess of 40 kt are possible by late Sunday morning for Resurrection Bay (Seward) and Passage Canal (Whittier), respectively. Gusts approaching 60 mph are also possible for Portage, parts of Turnagain Arm, and the Anchorage/Eagle River Hillsides. Wind gusts up to 50 mph may be possible for W and S Anchorage, Palmer, and across parts of the Copper River Basin. By Sunday night, the initial frontal system weakens as it continues to track inland, allowing winds to slowly diminish in intensity. Unsettled conditions, however, will persist across much of Southcentral as weaker shortwaves move over Southcentral from the Gulf, embedded in the southerly flow aloft. Lingering showers are expected along the Gulf Coast and Prince William Sound, while interior valleys including Anchorage and the Mat-Su should see a mix of clouds. For Monday, the weakening vertically stacked low south of the AKPen begins to slide southeast while weak ridging begins to build back into Southcentral Alaska. Although precipitation coverage is expected to decrease, a tightening pressure gradient between higher pressure building over the interior and lower pressure lingering across the northern Gulf may once again support localized gap winds through favored areas including Turnagain Arm, Knik River and portions of the Copper River Basin. Gusty winds may periodically extend into West Anchorage and Palmer during the afternoon and evening hours. Lingering showers are expected along the eastern Kenai Peninsula, Prince William Sound, and portions of the Copper River Basin, while inland locations including Anchorage should see a mix of clouds and some sunshine with only isolated showers developing over nearby higher terrain. Temperatures will trend slightly warmer as skies gradually clear and precipitation becomes more limited. -TM/LM && .SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA/BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3: Today through Monday afternoon)... ***Key Message: A Wind Advisory remains in effect for the northern Bristol Bay coast including the cities of Dillingham, Togiak, and Manokotak from 10AM Today to 4AM Sunday. Gusts up to 50 mph are expected for these areas.*** Discussion: The pattern of fog in the Bering, and convective systems over Southwest Alaska will finally transition out as a new low pressure system moves in south of the Alaska Peninsula this morning. In the Southwest interior, warmer temperatures will linger, however not as dry as the previous few days, then conditions cool and stabilize under increasing cloud cover later this weekend. Along the Alaska Peninsula, stratiform rainfall will move in early this morning, promoting cooler temperatures in these areas. Similarly along the AKPen, easterly winds will increase this morning. Wind speeds will be highest along the southern coastline of the Peninsula, however easterly winds coming through the gaps of the mountain range will promote gusty winds in the coastal Bristol Bay area. Gusts up to 50 mph are possible this afternoon, as such the aforementioned Wind Advisory is in effect. This system's rainfall and movement in the overall air column will bring a reprieve in the fog over the area, but replace it with continued low stratus and light rain. Easterly gale-force winds are expected to establish over the southern side of the Peninsula, including for communities such as Sand Point this morning will diminish into this evening and Sunday. The highest rain amounts will be along the Pacific side of the Alaska Peninsula (including Chignik) at around 1 to 1.5 inches of rain from Friday into the weekend. Rain amounts outside of this area will be much lower, as the bulk of moisture will remain limited to the Pacific and Gulf coasts. Through Sunday afternoon, rainfall will expand across Southwest Alaska, reaching the Kuskokwim Delta by noon Sunday and persisting into Monday morning. The overall pattern quiets down early next week as shower activity and coverage decreases for the AKPEN and surface high pressure builds from west to east across the Bering Sea and Aleutian Chain. -CL && .LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7: Monday through Thursday)... A broad upper-level ridge over the eastern Gulf will gradually shift eastward through early next week while a low pressure system remains over the Gulf of Alaska. The interaction between these features will maintain a moist southerly flow across portions of Southcentral Alaska through Tuesday. Periods of rain are expected across the eastern Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound on Monday, with lighter precipitation extending westward at times into the ALaska Peninsula and Kodiak Island. As the ridge continues to move east, precipitation coverage is expected to decrease from west to east Tuesday into Wednesday across Prince William Sound and the eastern Kenai Peninsula, while much of inland Southcentral experiences a gradual drying trend. By Thursday, forecast guidance suggests a weak upper-level disturbance tracking eastward across the Aleutians and Bering Sea. This may bring an increase in cloud cover and scattered showers to portions of Southwest Alaska and the Aleutians, while much of Southcentral Alaska remains under relatively quieter conditions with only isolated shower activity possible. Temperatures are expected to remain near slightly above seasonal normals through the period. LM && .AVIATION... PANC...The southeasterly Turnagain Arm winds have shifted away from the terminal this morning, resulting in a light north to northeasterly wind flow at the surface. Winds aloft are still southeasterly, resulting in the potential for LLWS through mid to late morning. A few sprinkles are also possible this morning as precipitation ahead of a front in the Northern Gulf spills over the coastal mountains. Even with any precipitation this morning, VFR ceilings should prevail...although ceilings may drop to around 5000 ft at times through late morning. The SE Turnagain Arm winds will bend back over the terminal by this afternoon as the front moves inland and north of the region. These winds again will quickly move away from the terminal tonight as another storm system enters the Gulf. LLWS is possible overnight as a stronger northerly surface wind develops over the terminal. Very strong SE winds (perhaps gusting as high as 50 mph), and a better chance for light rain, are then expected by late Sunday morning as this next systems drives inland. &&
