FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHWEST ALASKA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
143 PM AKDT Wed May 14 2025
.DISCUSSION...
Expect the best chances for wetting rain to be along the coast
and the Alaska Peninsula over the next couple of days as a storm
system crosses the Peninsula into the eastern Bering Sea. Further
inland, expect drier conditions with showers mostly confined to
the terrain. The driest (and warmest) areas will be along the
Kuskokwim Valley, including Lime Village, where minimum relative
humidities could drop to the upper 20s Thursday. Additionally,
gusty easterly winds into Bristol Bay through Kamishak Gap will
persist through through Thursday evening before turning onshore
and southwesterly for Friday.
