rsktkr Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 Is this year going to be remembered as the year without a Spring? I don't know what the criteria is. Is there an official criteria for such a thing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairbanks actually has 19.75 hours of daylight now, so it's quite a significant difference. And yes, the warm weather there in the last week certainly helps. But that's normal for them. They warm up incredibly quickly in May as the daylight rapidly increases. They go from a 53/30 average on May 1 to a 67/44 average on May 31. And probably leaf out quickly every year.

I added details about the sun angle... just crazy their trees can do that with a 46-degree sun angle after being frozen solid in frigid temps for 7 months. There has been frost on most nights this month in Fairbanks and they did not get above 57 degrees until a few days ago. And yet... in one week they have full leaf out. 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their climate really isn't comparable to anywhere in the lower 48. For all intents and purposes they don't have a true spring or a true fall, as most people would see it. Essentially a 2 season climate there. They tend to go into winter just as quickly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be really strange to fly from Fairbanks to Bozeman or Bend right now and go 2,500 miles to the south and go from fully leafed trees back to bare trees. 3 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cascadia_Wx Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 Actually got some decent downpours here in the last hour. Up to .06” on the day. Nice little bonus rainfall that wasn’t really forecast. Its still balmy out too, close to 60 degrees. The mild rain combined with the very green landscape makes for a nice atmosphere outside right now 3 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 BTW the GFS just had another epic fail out in the NATL. Apparently it has the same problem with cutoff ULLs out there as it does over the NPAC. This is at D4.
