  1. Autumn colors don't last long in Interior Alaska, but while we've got them it is gorgeous. Sunday morning FAA webcam view at Central (Gwich'in Dene country, northeast of Fairbanks) after some ground fog had dissipated. #akwx #Autumn #AlaskaSky @[email protected] @[email protected]

  3. Sea ice in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas continues melt, with the combined extent slightly higher than last year but well below the 1991-2020 median in NSIDC data. The higher concentration sea ice north of the northeast Alaska coast is an area of thicker multi-year ice that moved southwest in the spring from the Canadian High Arctic in the ocean currents. @Climatologist49 @ZLabe

  4. High temperatures (ºF) in and around Alaska on Saturday. Warm for this late in the season from southeast Interior Alaska into the Yukon Territory and northwestern British Columbia. Chilly northern Interior and North Slope. #akwx #weather

  5. 6:00AM: 57F, mostly cloudy.

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

  16. 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

  17. High temperatures (ºF) in and around Alaska on Friday. Quite warm in Southeast Alaska. Lower Cook Inlet and Kodiak also warm, with a new daily record high at Homer (68F, 20.0C) and daily record tied at Kodiak (71F, 21.7C). Cool in the northern Interior and North Slope. #akwx #weather

  18. 7:00AM: 51F, clear.

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

    But RAIN is in the forecast.

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

  19. 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]

  21. High temperatures (ºF) in and around Alaska on Thursday. Warm in Southeast Alaska and northwest British Columbia. Not quite so warm Aleutians and lower Alaska Peninsula. Rainy and cool from western Alaska into the central Interior. Also rainy but not so cool in southwest Alaska. #akwx #weather

  22. 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

  23. 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

  27. 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.

  28. 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

  29. 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.
