FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
400 PM AKDT Mon Jun 10 2024
.DISCUSSION...
Gusty southeasterly gap winds will prevail through the next few
afternoons. Although RHs may decrease with downsloping on the lee
of the mountains, the overall weather pattern is generally
recovering. Showers will begin farther inland later tonight into
Tuesday morning for the Copper River Basin. Precipitation is
expected to move westward throughout the day Tuesday, spreading
into the Susitna Valley, with a slight possibility of
precipitation along the western foothills of the western Chugach
in the Matanuska Valley and Kenai Mountains. More widespread
precipitation is possible for Southcentral on Wednesday. There
is an unusual amount of uncertainty to the timing of the
precipitation for Tuesday and Wednesday depending on the exact
track of these easterly waves.
