DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGES...
- WIDESPREAD RAIN SHOWERS RETURN TODAY, SPREADING FROM THE
CENTRAL INTERIOR INTO THE EASTERN INTERIOR. WETTING RAINS ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA, WITH THE HEAVIEST
PRECIPITATION FAVORED OVER THE NORTHERN INTERIOR.
- GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS HAVE DEVELOPED THROUGH THE ALASKA RANGE
PASSES AND INTO PORTIONS OF THE TANANA VALLEY, WITH THE
STRONGEST WINDS EARLY TODAY BEFORE GRADUALLY WEAKENING. GUSTS UP
TO 70 MPH THROUGH ISABEL AND WINDY PASSES ARE EXPECTED.
- DRIER AIR WILL BUILD IN WEST TO EAST SATURDAY BEHIND THE
DEPARTING SYSTEM, WITH WINDS SHIFTING TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST
ACROSS THE TANANA VALLEY. GUSTS AROUND 15 TO 25 MPH ARE
EXPECTED.
- MINIMUM RHS WILL GENERALLY REMAIN ABOVE 40% WITH VALUES EXPECTED
TO INCREASE WITH THE PRECIPITATION. THE UPPER TANANA VALLEY AND
FORTYMILE COUNTRY WILL SEE THE DRIEST CONDITIONS, BUT VALUES
WILL REMAIN ABOVE CRITICAL THRESHOLDS, ESPECIALLY AS
PRECIPITATION MOVES EAST.
