Since the PNW is turning into California...does it mean the Alaska will be the new PNW? Seemed like Juneau enjoyed a winter we would have seen 50 years ago.

They also have summers from hell.

Very weird that is considered a tundra climate when their all-time record low is 20 degrees and even in the Winter their average low never gets to freezing. I always thought tundra required permanently frozen subsoil.

EURO and the EURO AI both on the same page. I would not pay too much attn on the GFS at this point.
