.DISCUSSION...



A disturbance in the Western Interior spreads scattered rain 

showers and cloudy skies over the vicinity of the Oskawalik Fire 

this morning. There is still some uncertainty with the track of 

this disturbance, and there is low potential (around 25 percent) 

that it will bring wetting rain midday into the afternoon and keep

temperatures below 60 degrees today. More likely, breaks of sun 

will appear through the day and RHs drop to near 45 percent this 

afternoon/evening. Expect generally light southerly winds to 

persist, with gusts up to 15 mph during the afternoon/evening 

today and Thursday. Increasing breaks of sun, with slightly warmer

and drier conditions are likely for Thursday as the disturbance 

exits to the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta.
