    For the first time in over 3 weeks, it is snowing in Anchorage. Finally.

    Nice post. The wave break is a thing of beauty, something we haven't seen in AK in a solid 2 months. Blizzard watches/warnings for much of south central AK and the Aleutians/Akpen. On a side note, this storm has one of the most elongated frontal bands I have ever seen, stretching from the eastern ALeutians to just off the coast of W North America.

    Alaska weather pron.

    It was a nice to see snow in the mountains. The Chugach around Anchorage are much more distinct and scenic covered in snow. We are getting back into the wrong side of another blocking pattern, so much of this snow will be eroded away in the next week, unfortunately.

    Snow pouring down at 1500 feet earlier (Glen Alps parking lot near Anchorage). Now snow changing over right here at sea level in Anchorage.

    Extratropical cyclones, IMHO, are the most beautiful atmospheric phenomena known to man.
  13. baroclinic_instability
    Perhaps I say it too much, but that was seriously the best cyclone I have seen in a very long time.
  14. baroclinic_instability
    Doesn't get any better. Hurricane force winds all across the GOA.
  15. baroclinic_instability
    Atmospheric perfection.
  16. baroclinic_instability
    As expected, already spectacular looking, only going to get better through the afternoon.
  17. baroclinic_instability
    I can't wait to see this storm ripping. The actual sting jet on the backside of the low stays out of our marine area, but even the warm front may be close to hurricane force winds.
  18. baroclinic_instability
    Looks somewhat innocuous at first glance, but dual warm conveyor belt streams already taking shape on sat. Bomb out mode is just beginning.
  19. baroclinic_instability
    Oh yes. in 24 hours this hurricane force warm seclusion will be rocking the GOA possibly sub 950 hpa. Close to cat2 strength were this tropical.
  20. baroclinic_instability
    Hurricane force 950 bomb is coming. Looking like anywhere from 40-45 hpa pressure drop over 24 hours.

    A lovely day on King Cove. Gusts to 81 MPH. http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mesowest/getobext.php?sid=PAVC&banner=gmap&raw=0

    A break in the rain today provided for perfection on top of Denali. Multi-stack lenticulars were incredible. The rest are here: http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php/topic/36776-denali-the-alaska-range-and-lenticulars-on-a-perfect-bluebird-day/#entry1756512
  23. baroclinic_instability
    Perfection. Best cyclone I have seen all year.
  24. baroclinic_instability
    Cyclonic beauty south of the Aleutians.

    The dry airstream of the upper PV intruded last evening over Anchorage, giving us an hour of glorious sunlight and blue skies as the back edge of the storm moved out.
