FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
430 AM AKDT Sun Jun 30 2024
.DISCUSSION...
A modest coastal ridge building over the northern Gulf coast
will allow for gusty south and east gap flow winds to develop
this afternoon. However, a cooler and more moist airmass will
be moving into Southcentral resulting in a more unsettled
weather pattern through Tuesday morning. Widely scattered
showers will develop over interior Southcentral with better
rain shower chances along the Gulf coastal area and higher
terrain. Easterly cross-barrier flow over the Kenai Peninsula
and western Chugach Mountains will develop drying downslope
flow for the western Kenai, Anchorage Bowl, and into the Mat
Valley. Instability axis, and any resulting thunderstorms, will
favor the Alaska Range and northern Susitna Valley.
