Description: Two men are dead after a plane crashed near Aniak Tuesday, according to the Alaska State Troopers (https://dailydispatch.dps.alaska.gov/Home/DisplayIncident?incidentNumber=AK26091707) .

Dense fog and risky landing conditions played a major role in the crash of a chartered plane that left all eight onboard dead last month (https://www.alaskasnewssource.com/2026/08/21/report-plane-crashes-western-alaska-with-multiple-people-board/) at a remote military radar site in western Alaska.

As Fairbanks enters the first day of a four-day flood watch, rain is still coming down but wind speeds are picking up as well. The combination is a concern for the Fairbanks North Star Borough Director of Emergency Operations.
