Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn upper level ridge built over Southwest Alaska June 8th and remained over the area through the 10th. At the surface, a relatively tight pressure gradient to some gusty winds in combination with the hot and dry conditions. A few upper level shortwaves moving through the flow aloft helped to aid in lift across the area. Also, daytime heating helped to destabilize the atmosphere leading to increased instability along with some moisture leading to thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening hours.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeRed Flag Warning conditions were technically not met at any location in 155. However. in coordination with (AICC)-Alaska Interagency Coordination Center, a decision was made to put out the Red Flag Warning given lack of moisture and susceptibility of available fuels. AICC stated that putting the Red Flag Warning out would help fire weather managers plan activities more effectively given the conditions. PALG (Kalskag), PABE (Bethel), and PFKW (Kwethluk): Max temps: 70 to 73F; min RH: 25 to 31%; winds N 15 to 20 w/ gusts to 30 mph (N 5 to 10 w/ gusts to 20 mph in PALG). Conditions lasted from approx 10/2100z to 11/0400Z or 1pm to 8pm AKDT.
