.DISCUSSION...
Tomorrow still looks on track for a swath of wetting rainfall to
move across much of Southcentral as a frontal system drops south
from the Interior. There is still some lack of clarity for
rainfall amounts at lower elevations west of the Kenai and Chugach
Mountains, with the highest rainfall amounts expected to be
concentrated across higher terrain and near Prince William Sound.
Drier and warmer conditions will return for Wednesday.
