    What does your future hold? Might it be... a summer on the Juneau Icefield? Applications for students and staff for JIRP 2019 are due tonight at midnight (AKST)! Photo: catches a glimpse of what's to come through the thinning mists of time. PC:

    Anchorage used to have 3-6 days per year with a min temp colder than -15°F. We're now gone 10 years without a day that cold – twice as long as the next longest streak. If you are wondering, no station moves and no change in urbanization in decades.

    Temperature departure from normal for 2018. As expected, and as is now typical, Alaska had the largest departures.

    Number of years since 1991 with above normal precipitation (normals recomputed every 10 years). Some winners, and some losers.

    With the caveat that the distribution of stations is not even, just over 1/3 of U.S. stations were in the top 10% of wettest years.

    Map showing where 2018's precipitation ranked compared to all other years (Alaska-centric version). Nearly all of Mainland Alaska was in the top 1/3 of all years. Southeast Alaska was exceptionally dry.

    Happy birthday, Alaska. Today is the 60th anniversary of statehood. On this date in 1959, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the Alaska Statehood Act.
