995 FNAK52 PAFG 202259 FWFWCZ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western Alaska National Weather Service Fairbanks AK 259 PM AKDT Thu Jun 20 2024 .DISCUSSION...Warm and relatively dry weather in the Western Interior and for areas not directly on the coast continues for the next several days. Highs will broadly be in the mid 60s to mid 70s today and Friday, with minimum relative humidity values falling into the upper 20s to mid 30s in the Western Interior. Widely scattered thunderstorms are expected today in more easterly locations, with isolated thunderstorms elsewhere. Widely scattered thunderstorms will also be possible tomorrow along an axis extending from south of Ambler to near Crooked Creek, with isolated thunderstorms again possible for most inland locations. Wetting rains will be possible in the Southwestern Interior Friday with showers and thunderstorms in the area. Winds will generally remain relatively light during this period save this afternoon, when northerly gradient winds up to 15 mph will be possible in the Western Interior. Saturday will bring decreasing thunderstorm coverage with just isolated storms expected except for a small area of widely scattered thunderstorms from McGrath to Galena to Huslia. Temperatures and RHs will be a few degrees and a few percent cooler and wetter close to the coast than on Friday, but a few degrees warmer and a few percent drier further into the Interior.
