933, 934, 935, 936, 937, 938, 939, 940, 941, 942, 943, 944 AND

.DISCUSSION...Critical fire weather conditions expected across at least part of
Interior Alaska each day through Saturday. Red Flag Warnings remain in effect
through 2200 this evening across the Interior north of Fairbanks and for tomorrow
from the Nenana Hills north and east. Additional Red Flag products will likely be
needed on Saturday across the northwest Interior for hot/dry/windy conditions.
The focus for fire weather concerns on Friday will be the development of a low
level jet across the Fortymile, White Mountains, and Tanana Valley as a surface
high builds to the northeast while a thermal trough develops over the Tanana
Valley and shifts west along the Alaska Range in the evening. Friday afternoon
will be hot and dry, and NE winds will increase after 1600 and persist all night
with the low level jet. Gusts to 25 mph likely, especially across higher terrain.
This will lead to poor RH recovery for most areas north and east of Fairbanks as
well, increasing the length of the burn period.
Saturday will be the hottest and driest day, with another low level jet looking
to develop over the NW Interior. On Sunday, the ridge of high pressure aloft begins
to break down, bringing cooler conditions. Showers and thunderstorms are looking
increasingly likely by Monday, with cooler conditions with higher RHs expected
next week. Multiple days of wetting rain are not expected though, and showers will
be mostly scattered.
