Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western Alaska
National Weather Service Fairbanks AK
606 AM AKDT Tue Jun 25 2024

.DISCUSSION....
The high over the Interior will continue to build and conditions
will stay hot and dry. Today and tomorrow the Interior Seward
Peninsula will be near Red Flag conditions. Tuesday afternoon
there will be isolated thunderstorms from Ambler south to Holy
Cross in the afternoon and widely scattered thunderstorms in the
Upper Kuskokwim Valley. Wednesday most of the Western Coast has a
chance of isolated PM thunderstorms. Winds will be increasing
Wednesday to 15 to 25 mph along the coast due to an anomalous low
approaching in the Bering Sea.

Thursday is setting up to be a very active thunderstorm day given
the increasing confidence there will be scattered PM
thunderstorms from the Western Brooks Range all the way to the
Interior. It`s possible this could be one of the largest lightning
days we`ll see this year.
