    The rain returns. "Real" rain not until Monday night/Tuesday, but cloudy is good too. 😉

  2. August temperatures averaged above normal over most of Alaska except in Southcentral and Southwest Alaska, where the monthly average was close to normal. Southeast Alaska was especially warm, with both Juneau and Petersburg having a "top ten" warmest August. #akwx #Climate #Summer2026

  4. Sea surface temperature departures from the 1991-2020 baseline in the seas around Alaska. Gulf of Alaska near to above normal. The Eastern Bering and most of the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas cooler than normal except for some nearshore warmth. @Climatologist49 @ZLabe

    I'm late this morning because....boring weather!

    But RAIN is in the forecast.

    I'll believe it when I see it. Sigh.

  6. Fairbanks airport first freeze of the autumn on Thursday was early for the 21st century but would be close to normal prior to 1970. #akwx #Climate @[email protected] @[email protected]

  8. 6:00AM: 50, fair.

    One of my weather apps says "abundant sunshine" today. Sun-lovers - go revel!

    Yesterday was a frost advisory in Yakutat, today it's a heat advisory in Prince of Wales Island.

    The weather is definitely...weathering.

  9. High temperatures (ºF) in and around Alaska on Wednesday. Another warm day lower Alaska Peninsula and eastern Aleutians. Cool for early September north of the Alaska Range. Near to above normal in Southcentral and Southeast Alaska. #akwx #weather

  10. ☔️🌧️ The rain isn’t letting up, and neither are the flood concerns. See where Southcentral Alaska is watching the water rise and what drivers need to know.

  11. Smoke from (mainly) Northwest Territory, Canada wildfires will overspread most of the Yukon Territory and the eastern half of mainland Alaska today (Thursday) as winds aloft remain east to northeasterly. Graphic shows the forecast "Vertically Integrated Smoke" (how much smoke is in the air) for 4pm AKDT Thursday. @Climatologist49 @BakerRL75

  12. Pretty good bet that the highest temperatures of 2025 have come and gone in and around Alaska. Widespread 90s in the Koyukuk and Kobuk valleys are extreme, but likely not as rare as the 80s on the western North Slope, even right to the coast. Meanwhile, some areas in Southcentral (Kenai) and Southeast (Sitka) had unusually low peak temperatures. @Climatologist49

  13. Wildfire area burned in the Northwest Territories, Canada has nearly doubled in the past two weeks, with more than 1.33 million hectares (3.30 million acres) burned in 2025. Although wildfire as been minimal in the Yukon Territory and Alaska this month, the northern North American total area burned is now nearly twice the 1988 to 2024 median and on par with 2022 and 2024. @Climatologist49

  15. Perimeters of larger fires in the Fairbanks, Alaska area. Note that these are certainly underestimates of area burned as dense smoke is hindering mapping and reconnaissance efforts.

  16. The McDonald and Clear wildfires have joined in the latest perimeter analysis available from Alaska Interagency Coordination Center. The McDonald Fire is on track to be the largest wildfire in Fairbanks North Star Borough since the 2009 Wood River 1 fire (125,000 acres). #akwx #Wildfire #Summer2024 #McDonaldFire #ClearFire #Smoke

  17. Tuesday morning updated perimeters for the McDonald and Clear wildfires south of Fairbanks. These two fires alone make this the largest area burned in Fairbanks North Star Borough since 2013.
