Southcentral and Southwest Alaska Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Anchorage AK 445 AM AKDT Tue Aug 18 2026
.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA (Days 1 through 3: Today through Thursday)...
A complex longwave trough continues to drift over much of the greater Alaska region this morning, with several embedded smaller troughs slowly moving northeast along an axis between the Aleutians and the Yukon. The leading trough in this series is the one responsible for the blustery and wet conditions across parts of Southcentral yesterday, now exiting across the AlCan border into the Yukon. Gap winds are beginning to trend down as the north-south pressure gradient slowly relaxes, and this weakening trend should continue today into tonight. The next shortwave disturbance to watch is now starting to lift from Southwest into the western Alaska Range, and this feature will likely become a key player in today's outlook across Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valleys. It's looking like this trough will stay a bit more intact as it crosses over into northern portions of Southcentral today, increasing the threat for shower redevelopment over both higher terrain and lower elevations this afternoon.
By late this evening, the shortwave poised to move into the Mat-Su Valleys will shift into the Copper Basin. Lingering shower activity will trend in the same direction, while the rest of Southcentral temporarily dries out in between systems from tonight into Wednesday morning. By the late morning to mid afternoon on Wednesday, a weakening low moving along the AKPen will send its occluded front into Southcentral. This will send renewed bands of light rain quickly northeast, first reaching Kodiak Island and the Kenai Peninsula, then shifting into the Mat-Su and Prince William Sound later in the day. Models are struggling a bit to pin down the location for the development of a new surface low at the frontal triple point, but it looks most likely (around 70% chance) to form close to Kodiak Island and the Barrens by Wednesday night. As this new low forms, the front will sharpen somewhat as it nears the Gulf Coast, with a weak barrier jet likely to form along it as it approaches the northern Gulf coastline late Wednesday night into early Thursday. Easterly winds will peak at or near Small Craft range along the front early Thursday morning, namely south of the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound.
Looking closer to the end of the week, the main low moving up from the Aleutians and AKPen will shift northeast into Southcentral through Thursday evening. Expect this to extend the cool, showery and cloudy pattern for much of the region through at least Thursday night.

.SHORT TERM FORECAST SOUTHWEST ALASKA/BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS (Days 1 through 3: Tuesday through Thursday)...
The active pattern continues across Southwest Alaska, the Bering Sea and Aleutians through the middle of the week as a series of upper-level lows track across the region. Showers lingering across Bristol Bay early this morning will continue to push off to the north and east into the Kuskokwim Valley and along the western Alaska Range throughout the day today as the first upper level feature exits the region. Elsewhere across Southwest, low stratus, patchy fog, and misty conditions continue through this morning into this afternoon as the next system quickly follows by Wednesday morning.
Farther west, the low currently centered over Nikolski continues to track along the Aleutian Chain and Alaska Peninsula through Wednesday before eventually pivoting south into the Gulf by Thursday morning. Light rain associated with this system continues across the eastern Aleutians and AKPen through tonight before overspreading Southwest Alaska by Wednesday morning.
Looking ahead to the end of the forecast period, a strengthening low entering the western Bering for Thursday into Friday will bring the next round of widespread gusty winds and rainfall across the Bering and Southwest Alaska.
.LONG TERM FORECAST (Days 4 through 7: Friday through Monday)...
The long term begins with a strong zonal jet between Kamchatka and western Alaska that will amplify into a broad trough over the state on Saturday and Sunday. The jet streak over the Bering will help to generate a fairly strong and broad low pressure system that will impact southwest Alaska starting early Friday. Depending on the track and timing of this system, which has a fairly large spread, there are concerns regarding the potential for coastal flooding, high surf, and/or erosion. It's difficult to pinpoint where this may occur at this time with guidance highlighting a broad area of concern from the northern Alaska Peninsula all the way to the Y-K Delta.
The other aspect to this system is significant rainfall. Although there isn't a deep connection to the pacific and tropical moisture, a decent slug of warm, moist air will accompany the system. Models are indicating 1-2 inches of rain may fall on Southwest Friday and Saturday. The storm will pass into Southcentral and then the Gulf over the weekend, with a widespread 1-3 inches of rain possible. Given the wet environment, particularly in the Susitna where flooding is currently occurring, flood concerns will rise once again. Winds look strong through the Bering, Southwest, and Gulf of Alaska/Kodiak Island.
AVIATION
PANC...VFR conditions are expected to remain through the TAF period, though periods of showers may cause ceilings to dip to as low as MVFR range at times. Gusty southerly to southeasterly winds will persist through the day, though will gradually diminish this afternoon into tonight.
