ALASKA’S RECORD LOW WILDFIRE NUMBERS

[Mark]

To Monday (June 26), Alaska wildfires have burned barely 1,300 acres — the smallest area by this time of year in records stretching back three decades.

According to Rick Thoman, climate specialist with Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy, this year’s cold spring has been the key attributing factor, resulting in a late snowmelt; but it’s not the only one: Low pressure across the Bering Sea and very few thunderstorms are other contributing phenomena.
