...FIRE WEATHER WATCH IN EFFECT FROM SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
SUNDAY EVENING...

The National Weather Service in Fairbanks has issued a Fire
Weather Watch, which is in effect from Saturday afternoon through
Sunday evening.

* AFFECTED AREA...Delta Junction.

* TIMING...From Saturday afternoon through Sunday evening.

* WINDS...Southeast 10 to 20 mph with gusts up to 40 mph.

* HUMIDITY...As low as 15 to 20 percent.

* TEMPERATURES...Highs in the upper 70s. Lows in the lower 50s.

* IMPACTS...Critical fire weather conditions are possible due
  to a combination of low relative humidity, gusty winds from
  the south, and dry fuels.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Relative humidity values are expected to be
  lower on Saturday, but the winds will be stronger on Sunday. The
  one limitation to critical fire weather conditions will be the
  influx of moisture coming in from the south on Sunday.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Fire Weather Watch means that weather conditions could lead to
the potential for a Red Flag event in the near future. This watch
will remain in effect until it is upgraded to a Red Flag Warning
or that it is determined that the Red Flag event will not
develop.

Please advise the appropriate officials or fire crews in the
field of this Fire Weather Watch.
