.DISCUSSION....
Drier conditions will persist through the weekend as ridging will
begin to build today. We could see some isolated thunderstorms
today and tomorrow in the Fortymile Uplands and near the Alcan.
For much of the Eastern Interior Valleys temperatures will warm
to the low 60s. Minimum RH values will stay around 30% until
Sunday. Sunday we could see RH near critical threshold from Nenana
to Eielson. There could also be some breezy winds on Sunday, with
winds from the west at 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph. The
strongest winds will be in the afternoon when we are fully mixed.
