Alaska’s Fire Season Slows But Threat Lingers | Anchorage News

Published 3 weeks, 5 days ago
Description

Alaska’s wildfire season is off to a surprisingly calm start this year, with only one fire causing evacuations — thanks to cooler, wetter weather and a late spring. But experts warn a warming trend looms, raising fire risks in Northwest Arctic, Norton Sound, and Nome, where lightning could spark major blazes. Even late-season areas aren’t safe — crews remain on high alert, and Fairbanks residents can get real-time alerts by texting “FNSB Alert” to 67283.
