Temperatures Sunday morning have boomed into the 40s in Denali Park area with pretty decent chinook underway. Peak winds so far include 58 mph at Antler Creek RWIS (between Healy and Glitter Gulch), 49 mph at Healy (at the DOT camp) and 43 mph at the Otto Lake PWS. The NOAA-18 infrared image from just before 6am AST Sunday shows the occlusion in an arc across the central Interior. Note the mountain wave clouds just to the south of the high cloud edge.
