FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHWEST ALASKA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
319 AM AKDT Sat Jul 12 2025
.DISCUSSION...
Forecast remains on track. Scattered to numerous showers develop
each afternoon/evening across much of Southwest Alaska through
early next week. Temperatures warm into the 70s for the Kuskokwim
Valley and Delta this weekend, with RHs dropping as low as 40
percent, though moisture recovers well overnight. Isolated wet
thunderstorms develop this afternoon for portions of interior
Bristol Bay, the Lower Kuskokwim Valley, and the Kuskokwim Delta
as temperatures reach their peak. Light and generally offshore
winds shift onshore Saturday night and increase for Sunday,
initiating a cooling and moistening trend. This also reduces the
area of wet thunderstorms on Sunday as they retreat northward into
the Kuskokwim Valley.
