Above average snow coupled with cold April temperatures led to a mechanical breakup. On May 14, a 90-mile breakup front jammed downstream and caused water to backup into Circle, AK. The river quickly rose and caused the worst flooding in Circle’s history! #akwx #floodaware
Our office will be participating in the UAF Arctic Research Open House again this year. This year's event is scheduled from 4-7 PM on Thursday, May 16. We will be offering tours of our office during the open house.
Today we are going to look at some historic Alaska floods. In August 1967, within an 8 day span, Fairbanks had experienced half of its average annual precipitation during an already wet summer. For more about the Chena River Flood visit: weather.gov/aprfc/Fairbank… #akwx #floodaware
Dangerous river and lake ice conditions will develop as the deterioration of the ice continues over the next couple of weeks. Check local conditions before heading out! weather.gov/aprfc/IceThick… weather.gov/aprfc/riverCon… UAF Fresh Eyes: fresheyesonice.org/realtime-data/… #akwx #floodaware
For more safety information: weather.gov/safety/flood-t… Turn Around, Don’t Drown PSA by Matt Hawk: weather.gov/safety/tadd-mu… #akwx #floodaware
Many dangers are still present, even after flood waters have receded. Stay alert for danger! More info here: weather.gov/safety/flood-a… #akwx #floodaware
During floods, water levels and flow rate can change quickly during flooding. Avoid flood waters at all costs! Find out more: weather.gov/safety/flood-d… #akwx #floodaware
Look out for temperatures to warm up towards the end of this week. The Alaskan Interior will be in the upper 50s🌞. While the weather for the Alaska west coast stays unsettled. #akwx
What is the best way to stay safe during a flood? Be prepared! Check out AK’s Emergency Plan ready.alaska.gov/.../2024%20Sta…... More resources here: weather.gov/safety/flood-b… Report a flood to the River Forecast Center here: weather.gov/aprfc/submit?s… #akwx #floodaware
Glacier dammed lakes (GDL), or Jökulhlaups, are unique flood hazards in Alaska! 2023 was quite the year for Jökulhlaups! In Juneau, the Mendenhall GDL caused historical damage. On the Kenai Peninsula, the Snow and Skilak GDLs released at the same time! #floodaware #akwx
During the spring, frozen ground reduces the amount of water from melting snow or rainfall that can seep into the ground. A rapid warming can cause excessive melt water from the snowpack that can overflow streams, rivers and lakes. weather.gov/aprfc/floodpot… #akwx #floodaware
There are 2 types of breakup, mechanical and thermal. Mechanical (also called "dynamic") breakup can create dangerous ice jams. Ice jams are a serious hazard to Alaskans living near the large, interior rivers and are threatened by flooding almost every year. #floodaware #akwx
Alaska is a unique state for many reasons, one of which is the several types of potential floods. Throughout the day, we will highlight 3 main types of floods to be aware of here in Alaska. For more information on different flood types weather.gov/safety/flood-s… #akwx #floodaware
Winter Storm Warnings are currently in effect for heavy snow and blowing snow reducing visibility to 1/4 mi, as shaded in pink. Winter Weather Advisories for the blue shaded areas for snow and blowing snow reducing visibility to 1/2 mile or less are also in effect. #akwx
Another round of wind and snow for the West Coast. Winds gusting as high as 60 mph possible in the YK Delta with speeds of 40 to 50 mph elsewhere. Snow accumulations of 4 to 6 inches. For more information please visit out website at weather.gov/afg/ #akwx
Welcome to Flood Safety Awareness Week! Over the next 7 days, we will visit flood topics that impact us in Alaska. We want to make sure you can be prepared in the event of a flood. We'd love to hear from you, so please use the comments for questions. #floodaware #akwx
Looking forward to warmer temperatures? Well you will not have to wait for long, as a strong southerly chinook event will start setting up Monday afternoon. This will bring much of the eastern interior warmer than average with some spots possibly hitting 55°F.#akwx
Snow showers this morning in the Fairbanks Area. This radar loop shows showers are more active north of town with lighter amounts south. We are expecting more snow showers this afternoon. #akwx
Have you recently gotten snow on the Alaskan West Coast? Leave a comment down below with your snowfall amounts and your location. Send us pictures if you can! #akwx

@NWSFairbanks Exactly. Look at that! 😍 Here's what we've seen at the office.
SE AK will see a pattern shift this weekend with impacts lasting into next week. High pressure builds, giving the panhandle sunnier skies & warmer-than-normal temps! 50s return as early as Monday in the south with the warmer highs moving north over the next few days. #akwx

A perfect ending to my time in Alaska! As always, can’t wait to come back :)
My time at @NWSFairbanks is coming to an end unfortunately as I head back to Indiana soon. I’m so thankful for this opportunity to come back up to Alaska for a few months. The team here is fantastic and made me feel right at home. Already can’t wait to come back again some day
