Very warm and low humidity weather returning to Interior Alaska, meaning wildfire on the ground gets another push, and so smoke is sure to increase. The only good news is that there will be much less thunderstorm activity than the Solstice week hot weather. #akwx #Wildfire2025 @anisian.bsky.social
Lightning sparked wildfires in the Northwest Territories: "…including one wildfire – named EV014 – some 40 km north of Inuvik, about as far north on the territorial mainland as such a fire has ever been recorded." #ntwx #Canada #Wildfire2025

Bar plot showing the total area burned in wildfires in Alaska up to June 24th each year 1993 to 2025. The 1993-2024 median is also indicated.

This is above the 1993-2024 median to June 24 it's but far from the most extreme. #akwx #Wildfire2025 #Summer2025

Not a lot of people understand how much people pick mushrooms in SK as a form of income. This is a big loss for La Ronge, in addition to the burning of the Robertson's Trading Post, a community landmark in this year's wildfires.
