042 FNAK52 PAFC 082311 FWFALU FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHWEST ALASKA NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK 311 PM AKDT Mon Jul 8 2024 .DISCUSSION... A few breaks in the clouds across interior Bristol Bay and the Middle Kuskokwim Valley this afternoon and evening will give way to increasing clouds as a strong frontal system moves from the Yukon Delta this evening across Southwest Alaska through Wednesday. This front will bring southerly winds and widespread wetting rains to most areas west of a line from Lime Village to Iliamna. The front will stall along the Kuskokwim Mountains on Tuesday, then pivot back to the west, across the Kuskokwim Delta for Wednesday as the precipitation becomes less widespread and more showery in nature. The heaviest precipitation will be along the front, in a line from Togiak to Crooked Creek, where 2+ inches of rain may fall.
