FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
336 PM AKDT Fri Jun 28 2024
.DISCUSSION...
A few lightning strikes remains possible near the eastern Alaska Range
and the northern Wrangells this weekend, with a lesser
extent for the Talkeetnas. Relative humidity is expected to decrease to
about 30 percent for the Copper River Valley, but a brief period to 25
percent is possible Saturday. Gusty winds can be expected through
the Copper River Valley over the weekend. A shift in the weather pattern
is looking more likely to begin Sunday with increasing moisture and
higher potential for winds through south and southeast terrain gaps. Most
of the steadier light rain will be closer to the coast while showers become
more widely scattered farther inland.
