The Alaska climate summary for May is now posted in the Alaska and Arctic Climate newsletter. As usual, lots of regional variability but more cool and wet than not. @Climatologist49

There was less sun this past Spring in most of Southeast and parts of southwest Alaska than any other spring since the late 1970s. Most of Southcentral was sun-limited too. In contrast, Northwest Arctic Borough and portions of the North Slope coast had much more sunshine than usual. Data from ERA5 and analysis and plotting courtesy @Climatologist49

Spring (March through May) average temperature departure from the 1991-2020 baseline around the Arctic. Most of Iceland and the Nordic Arctic had a top-3 warmest spring since 1950, as did parts of Greenland and eastern Siberia. Nowhere in the Arctic had a top-3 coolest Spring.

Sixth: "To bee or not to bee", where we mourn the now departed hairy-footed flower bees and the many species of mining bees – see you next Spring –, and welcome a whole new range of bees, awoken at the right time to feast on the pink lampwick, bright yellow fear-leaf yarrow, and deep pink Deutzia bushes. The rooster includes mason bees, leaf-cutter bees, sweat bees, armoured-resin bees, masked bees, and the spectacular European woolcarder bee. The last two kinds are putting in quite the territorial control and mating show.

Fifth: "Fantastic colours on the wing", where we linger on the many beautiful flies that inhabit the college gardens, from beeflies to bright emerald greenbottle flies, hoverflies, dagger flies, assassin flies, and many others, plus the expected set of bees for late April and early May in Cambridge, UK.
(No images because an update to the blogging platform broke functionality needlessly and carelessly – so click on the iNaturalist links to see them.)

For your listening enjoyment, here are eight seconds of baby sparrows chirping in a hidden nest in the eaves above our front door. Happy Spring!

Fairbanks Airport reported thunder on Tuesday between 140pm and 215pm AKDT. This is the third day this month with thunder. This ties with 2004 and 1935 for most May days with thunder. Most Mays have no thunder. #akwx #weather #Spring2025 @anisian

Fairbanks Airport reporting thunder at 1230pm Monday. This is the second day this month with thunder (May 18 was the first day), making this the first May with two days of thunder since 2012. #akwx #Spring2025 #thunder @anisian @Climatologist49 @debmcqueen

May has been a very rainy month in Southeast Alaska, with most places seeing 1.5 to 3 times normal rainfall through the first 25 days of the month. Quite variable elsewhere, though very little data in western Alaska.

The transition of winter to summer happens quickly in the Arctic, with the loss of snowpack and sea ice leading the way. I've got an update on where things stand this year in that annual cycle with a new post on the Alaska and Arctic Climate newsletter. @Climatologist49

Snow cover continues to decrease over Alaska and vicinity. As of May 23, low elevations now mostly clear of snow except northwest Arctic and Brooks Range northward. Meltout is not as far advanced north of about 67N as this date last year in both Alaska and northwest Canada, but more snow-free ground in western Alaska.
