Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western Alaska
National Weather Service Fairbanks AK
306 PM AKDT Sat Jun 22 2024

.DISCUSSION...
We will see a continual warming trend with inland areas reaching
to the mid to upper 70s by Monday. With coastal areas rising into
the mid to upper 60s. Minimum RH values will look to remain above
30% with recovery overnight in the 80s and 90s. Coastal areas
could see winds as high as 20 mph with the inland areas seeing 10
to 15 mph. Today we have already seen a lot of thunderstorm
activity from McGrath to Ambler. These thunderstorms appear to be
dropping 0.1" or more of rain. We expect the storms to persist
through this evening. Tomorrow we could see scattered
thunderstorms around McGrath as well as Hughes/Huslia.
