DISCUSSION  
 
RECENT STRONG WINDS THROUGH ISABEL PASS HAVE SINCE SETTLED DOWN IN  
RESPONSE TO A COLD FRONT THAT MOVED THROUGH THE AREA EARLIER  
TODAY. AS A RESULT, FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS REMAIN AT A MINIMUM AS  
WET CONDITIONS AND LIMITED FUEL AVAILABILITY HIGHLIGHT MOST OF THE  
REGION. THE UPPER TANANA VALLEY REMAINS THE EXCEPTION AS DRIER  
CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT  
WEEK. HOWEVER FUEL AVAILABILITY IS LIMITED AND EXPECTED TO REMAIN  
THAT WAY.
