A disabled semi-truck is blocking the Parks Highway at Milepost 274, south of Clear Space Force Station, closing the road as of early Thursday. The Alaska 511 alert lists the closure as active through 1:33 AM UTC Friday, July 18.

A June 20 lightning strike near Anderson triggered Denali Borough evacuation notices before firefighters contained the Starry Fire at 575 acres, even as Alaska logged fewer than 29,000 acres burned statewide, the sixth-lowest June total since 1993, despite roughly 75,000 lightning strikes.

The Starry Fire reached 50% containment Tuesday as about two dozen active-duty Airmen from Eielson Air Force Base, Clear Space Force Station, and JBER worked alongside state hotshot crews. Crews secured a 5-foot buffer inside the fire's edge and found no heat 150 feet outside the perimeter.
