Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 439 PM AKST Fri Nov 6 2026
.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3)...
Overnight lows dipped into the upper teens to lower 20s across most of Southcentral with clearing skies and light winds. This is ten degrees cooler than yesterday morning's lows. Coastal areas of Prince William Sound and southern Kenai Peninsula were the warmest remaining in the upper 30s to lower 40s because of persistent cloud cover resulting in a rise of a few degrees from yesterday morning's low temperature.
The main weather features into the weekend will be the slowly dissipating low in the Gulf of Alaska, the influx of cooler air from the Interior and a mid-weekend low off the eastern coast of Kodiak Island.
This afternoon into tomorrow evening, a low moves northward along the Prince William Sound and Eastern Kenai Peninsula bringing coastal rain showers and inland snow. Snowfall accumulations ranging from a trace to 2 inches are expected for the Copper River Basin from this evening through late tomorrow morning during the heaviest time of precipitation. Snow showers linger into the afternoon. Additionally, low will bring coastal showers and gale to storm force winds along the near-shore waters of the northern Gulf. A ridge quickly builds into the area tomorrow afternoon enhancing northerly flow through the area causing temperatures to drop into the lower teens by Sunday morning. Highs on Sunday rebound into the lower 20s. This cooler air moves into the Mat-Su Valleys, Anchorage Bowl and Kenai Peninsula this weekend with highs in the upper 20s/lower 30s and lows in the upper teens/lower 20s.
As the low slowly dissipates, continued confidence in a weak surface low forming near Kodiak Island tomorrow afternoon brings increased winds to the Barren Islands and offshore areas of Kodiak Island and southern Kenai Peninsula. A second low begins to move into the Southern Gulf of Alaska late Sunday evening bringing gale to storm force winds along the coast of Prince William Sound.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA/BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3)...
A quieter weather pattern is expected across the region. Weak longwave troughing will bring the chance of rain and snow showers through the Aleutian Chain and Alaska Peninsula. Interior Southwest is expected to stay mostly dry. Broad northerly flow through out the region will trend the temperatures cooler as we approach closer to winter. A series of North Pacific lows through early next week are expected to remain south of the Aleutian Chain. There will be a slight uptick in winds and precipitation only for the first low tonight for islands west of Adak.
- SS
.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7: Tuesday through Friday)...
The long term remains fairly active as a barrage of strong North Pacific lows track south of the Aleutian Chain and enter the Gulf through Friday.
Looking out west, there is good agreement of a gale force North Pacific low skirting south of the Western Aleutian Chain Tuesday.
With a suppressed storm track, this system will continue eastward and really only affect mariners south of the Chain. Out east, model consensus is solid that a surface low will be weakening Tuesday afternoon somewhere near the southern tip of the Kenai Peninsula. This will help to reinforce northwesterly gap winds across the Alaska Peninsula in the wake of this system. Coastal Southcentral Alaska looks to be on track to see upslope enhanced precipitation from this system. One tricky thing will be the low placement and if we see cross barrier (downsloping) flow for the northern Cook Inlet region with this system. The EC and its ensembles is the most bullish on areas like Anchorage seeing snow, while other models currently show a downslope hole across the region in lee of the mountains. A second low enters the Gulf on Tuesday, and the consensus is fair that this will round the Alaska Panhandle and Southcentral coast as a deep area of low pressure through Thursday and once again spread precipitation along the Gulf coast. There is lower confidence at this time of precipitation spilling over the mountains due to model spread of the low's location. The latest deterministic run of the GFS currently is the most aggressive model, while other global models show varying solutions due to model agreement breaking down near the end of the long term.

AVIATION
PANC...VFR conditions and light northerly winds are expected to continue through the TAF period. There is a low chance (10 to 20 percent) of fog in the morning as clear skies lead to strong radiational cooling and development of steam fog over the inlet.
Any fog that does develop this morning is expected to dissipate by late morning to early afternoon as dewpoint depressions widen by then.
