FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
430 PM AKDT Mon Jun 24 2024
.DISCUSSION...
Isolated to scattered wet thunderstorms persist through Thursday.
For this afternoon and evening, expect similar thunderstorm
coverage as yesterday. Southerly flow up Cook Inlet is helping to
cool, moisten, and stabilize portions of Anchorage and Kenai
Peninsula today, leading to less intense convection than yesterday.
Instead, the most intense convection will occur further
inland where conditions remain warmer and drier: Copper River
Basin, Talkeetna Mountains, and northern Susitna Valley along the
foothills of the Alaska Range. By Tuesday and Wednesday,
shower and thunderstorm activity should remain limited the
Talkeetna Mountains and Copper River Basin.
