NWS Forecaster Discussion
967 fxak69 pafg 062216 afdafg Northern Alaska forecast discussion National Weather Service Fairbanks Alaska 216 PM akdt Sat Sep 6 2008 Discussion... models in decent agreement through first 36 hours and then begin to diverge thereafter. Big difference being that the NAM carries a cutoff upper level and surface low eastward to the Gulf of Alaska while the GFS does not identify this feature. The NAM flattens the upper level ridge out over the Alaska Canada border while the GFS and the European model (ecmwf) amplify the ridge. This creates the trough to deepen over the West Coast and then move easterly. Prefer the GFS and the European model (ecmwf) solution at this time as do not expect the upper level low to be able to push the ridge flat. Expect Chinook winds will develop over the central interior on Sunday. Since the Chinook will not be that strong, it is possible that some of the precipitation could spill over to the north side of the range Sunday afternoon or evening. The trough moves northward to the Brooks range by Sunday night which will allow upslope rainfall for the northern interior. Onshore flow over the Arctic coast and much of the West Coast will keep dense fog conditions likely for tonight through Sunday morning. As the low moves up into the the Bering Sea Sunday morning...this will increase the gradient over most of the West Coast which will be the cause for the the marine advisories. A few showers will spread northward to the Seward Peninsula by Sunday afternoon...however do not expect a big rain event.
