Special Statement
Heavy smoke impacts in Kenai peninsula, Yukon and Tanana
valleys including Fairbanks and southern Kenai areas.

Fire
CENTRAL/EASTERN INTERIOR: Winds will switch to the west
today.
SOUTHCENTRAL: The Swan Lake Fire is continuing to see hot,
dry conditions and consuming acres. Similar winds as
yesterday.
Smoke
CENTRAL/EASTERN INTERIOR: Heavy smoke impacts across
the entire interior. Conditions will not improve with the wind
switch due the number of fires across the area – except for the
far western interior.
SOUTHCENTRAL: Winds will a see a southerly component
today which should help push smoke into the Anchorage bowl
and up the Mat-Su valley. This should spell some relief for
areas south of the fire.
SOUTHEAST: Smoke should get pushed west of Juneau and out
to sea.
SOUTHWEST: Smoke should thin today as the wind switches.
