Home/BlogWith up to 6 ft. of snow on tap for Alaska in the coming week…
GFS model forecast total snow accumulation in Alaska in next 8 days.
…one can only marvel at a state that reaches -80 deg. F in the winter, grows pumpkins that weigh more than a Smart Car, and was purchased from Russia for only $7.2 million. I’ll bet Putin is still pi$$ed.
Newsminer.com is calling today’s event a “winter storm”…but isn’t it still early Fall?
As winter slowly sinks southward, all of the Canadian provinces can also expect some snow in the coming week:
GFS model forecast total snowfall over the next 8 days in Canada.
In central Canada will be a serious snowfall.

If you are a real Alaskan you would know that winter comes up here when it wants..regardless of the so called global warming.
All in all this snowfall date is not that unusual for my state just to set the facts straight. I have seen it snow three feet at the end of September..so no this snowfall is not that unusual.
Please send some of your snow and cold to the lower half of Upsate New York. We may have some 70 degree days next week. I swear it’s hard to get news-making snow events here!
The temperature in the depths of Alaska to the ground in the coming days will drop to about -10 degrees C.
Depends where.
Hey there! Do you use Twitter? I’d like to follow you if that would be ok.
I’m definitely enjoying your blog and look forward to new posts.

Hmm, it makes you wonder if there is no missing heat in the system and that perhaps — just perhaps — Trenberth’s energy budget is just a little wonky. Just saying.
The surface temperature of the oceans in the north rapidly declining.

ren,
I am not sure but that could be the worst color coded map I have seen. They use the same colors on multiple numbers making it very confusing.

This type of map is much easier to read and see what is happening.
Thank you! Much easier to read and quickly understand.
It snows in Alask in October every frigging year, a lot of times it snows in September. It is not unusual to see snow in late May.
And it never never gets down to -80 deg F.
Griefman, It has…….. once: http://www.weather.com/news/top-10-coldest-us-states-20121002?pageno=12
Yeah one time
So it does get down to -80deg F!
“Never” is a long time. It does get down that far according to Air Force meteorologists. And it doesn’t snow in October “every year”. For ever is also a long time.
I lived in Fairbanks for 15 years and it snows every October and about once every 3 years it snows in September. The -80 temp was a one time event and is so atypical that it would be considered a fluke.
Griefman wrote: “I lived in Fairbanks for 15 years and it snows every October and about once every 3 years it snows in September.”
Does it snow across the entire state and a large portion of Canada every October?
Griefman wrote: “And it never never gets down to -80 deg F.”
The record low temperature for the state of Alaska occurred on January 23, 1971 at Prospect Creek. It was -80 degrees F.
I have lived in Alaska for 27 years. I know for myself that there is absolutely nothing remarkable about snow in October. Only 2-3 times in recorded weather history has Fairbanks NOT had snow on the ground by Halloween. The writer makes himself look foolish with this. It’s just something else that makes those of us opposed to the warming hysteria look like idiots.
I spent a summer working in Anchorage, Alaska. I read about the weather and learned about it from the local residents. Their first snowfall is expected between the last week in September, and the first week in November, a span of about six weeks.
Alaskans have a sense of humor about their extreme winters. They have nicknamed the first snowfall “Termination Dust.” It signifies the unofficial end of summer and it generally appears as a light dusting in the mountains east of the city. I saw it a few days before I left the job site but I don’t recall the date
The summer weather in Anchorage was quite pleasant, overall. It was a little more cloudy and drizzly than I would have preferred, but not bad. The air was often very clear. Several times I saw Mount McKinley from Anchorage.
did you see Russia from there??
Hell, I’ve seen snow in the lower forty eight in October…..what’s the big deal about snow in Alaska in October. As a matter of fact, a friend in Boulder told me it snowed 2 days ago.
Griefman:
Alaska Low, 80 on Jan. 23, 1971 at Prospect Creek Camp
Needed 5 seconds to find.
Didn’t the earth tilt on it’s axis a few years ago when that big Chilean earthquake hit? Would that have something to do with weather patterns in different areas changing? We are feeling it here in CA
According to Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Chile_earthquake#Geophysical_impact the tilt was about 2.7 milliarcseconds (8cm). I don’t believe that small amount would have any impact.
The force with which the quake shook us was impressive. It went on forever, nearly three minutes. The epicenter was located about 50 km from us.
But, no. There is a far greater impact from clandestine geoengineering going on. Look up in the sky. See those chemtrails? They are there to take money out of your pocket.
Rust, instead of quoting misinformation, why not get outside for some fresh air and a good look around. It just might do you good….

use as a reference, total trash with a lot of fear mongering and trolls. absolute bunk.
Wikipedia is even worse….
It has to do with California being the land of nuts and fruits.

And it never never gets down to -80 deg F.
i had trouble believing that too (I’m originally from Alaska) – but a search of the “lowest temperatures” eventually brought up a NOAA table at http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001377.html
Prospect Creek, Alaska, Jan. 23, 1971, 80
so while i doesn’t regularly get down there – and there’s nothing in the article that states it does – it is capable of it
Be careful when researching your data, I understand that NOAA has been caught doctoring their data. After this “inadvertent” change in data was revealed, the data in question was dully corrected. The point being, you must be sure the data you rely on is the real deal.
The motivation behind the inaccurate NOAA data was to support an idea, which could not be substantiated using the correct data. Therefore, it stands to reason that “some” sources of data will not necessarily update their information, if it would create a conflict in other material that was based on the corrupt data.
For the sake of those of us living in the Great White North, I hope your are wrong… could use a few more weeks of this awesome Fall we are having 🙁
Fall is IMHO Fairbanks’s most beautiful season, sort of Mother Nature’s way of apologizing for what she’s about to bring down on you.
It was 77 degrees below (F.) in the winter of 1961 in Fairbanks, Alaska. I was there. It was too cold to snow, is my childhood memory.
And it’s 120 degrees warmer (95) here in north San Diego county
I live dead center in Central Canada. What snow?? It’s 17C here today and above 10C all week. Nice weather. I think Global Warming is a bunch of foo-foo too, but someone’s getting their weather forecast from the back of a cereal box.
http://www.accuweather.com/en/ca/national/weather-radar
It snowed in Northern Illinois last Saturday morning, 10/04/2014, at about 6 AM. It didn’t stick due to no frost in the ground.
Just read article about the Atlantic and south oceans have warmed more than twice as much as thought. The heat is hiding out, it’s going to come. But you go ahead and think snow means no warming.
Yeah, and next month it will be hiding out in the desert somewhere. You idiots can’t explain why “extra” heat would suddenly move into the oceans and not be balanced by convection (probably) or conversion (possibly). What a coincidence that this reverse inversion process began right when you are trying to make your case for higher “global” temperatures resulting from the increase in CO2. No one is disputing that CO2 has increased, and YET! No increase in temperatures as you stated would occur.
Better launch a new research program…you’re likely to start feeling the pinch as the lemmings are even catching on to your fantasy.
Why would they launch a research program when their prophet Al Gore has promised them The Warming is coming?
Again, you people keep referring to things happening, contrary to what “they” thought! Global warming may honestly be happening, in comparison to a contrasting period, this DOES NOT mean that a catastrophic climate event is going to doom us!
Quit listening to the opinions of THEY, and start looking at the data and the contrasting FACTS!!
You people would like us to believe nature can be confined, within limited parameters. The truth is that historical climate changes are a natural process involving undefined extremes, but for some reason THIS generation has no business experiencing them. Wake up and stop drinking that kool-aid!
In my lifetime, I have experienced extremely cold winters with little snow, extremely warm winters with little snow, extremely cold winters with seemingly endless snow fall, extremely warm winters with seemingly endless snowfall. Based on my limited knowledge on earths global climate history, I can acknowledge this ANCIENT planet has experienced far more cycles and extremes than I would want to see.
The there’s a little matter concerning the sun, its cycles and the impact of the sun’s cycles on every planet in the solar system. You Global warming nut jobs might want to do a little research on that issue?
That heat, it’s clever. It knows how to hide. It can blend in with its surroundings. It lies in wait, biding its time. Planning, calculating, scheming, hatching the most devilish plans imaginable. Then when you least expect it: Kaboom, it strikes without warning. Suddenly, before you even know it, it gets warm.
New Brunswick, PEI, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland are Canadian provinces. No snow forecast in next week. Please get it right next time, eh?
Over the next 8 days, at the bottom the map they’re showing shows snow in all the provinces and territories.
Looks like lots of snow in Labrador which is part of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
It’s like summer here in Southern Alberta. No forecast of snow anywhere in the area in the next week that I can see.
So I don’t know what that accuweather map is supposed to be showing, but if it is indicating snow it is way off base.
If you want Canadian weather, next time try weather.gc.ca
I agree, but is the writer deaf as well? If this is a print media, why , is it written that your subject is in fact deaf. Makes zero sense.
It’s HAARP. They have transmitters in Alaska and Baja that, together, are creating a permanent high pressure ridge over California and Oregon that forces the jet-stream north and then down the middle of the continent. This drags the cold air south and creates drought. This is geo-engineering brought to you by the US government. Then blame it all on man made climate change [which is partly true]and create a straw man argument in order to get rich on the Chicago carbon trade exchange owned by…Al Gore and crew.
Chicago Carbon Trade exchange went belly up years ago and is no longer open.
The US gov’t isn’t that smart. Heck they can’t even take a monopoly (US MAil) and operate it without $billion loss.
Asian countries for Asians.

That’s genocide.
Anti-racist is a codeword for Anti-White
Actually, its the other way around knucklehead.
This is a non event. I lived in Fairbanks for 40 years. 6-8 inches of snow in mid October is normal. There is nothing unusual in winter coming in Fall in the interior of Alaska
I can vouch for this. My first winter in Fairbanks the first permanent snow fell on October 10. That was also the year it hit -45° on Thanksgiving Day.
While this week’s weather doesn’t mean winter’s come “early,” though, it may arguably be “earlier” than the climate-alarm cultists have been promising.
Winter early in AK? Maybe late, but definitely not early. We had termination dust Aug 17 last year around Anchorage, and I have seen white on the ground in mid September.
We drove the Alcan in June 1980 from Denver to Anchorage…..what a GLORIOUS drive and experience. In our first winter there the approximate high was -27….and the neighbors told us this NEVER happens.
Riiiight. Then the next summer poor Fairbanks has 100 degree plus on top of the -60 winter….who can live like this?!
That said? I would go back in a heartbeat
if we could afford it!
We left in September 1981 with snow on
our trip all the way to/thru Tok and into
Canada. Stayed white the whole drive south till we got to Jasper/Banff area and you could see that it had snowed. What a beautiful drive. I LOVE ALASKA!
Don’t look now folks, but our northern friends have a lot of globull warming heading their way. Several feet of it in some places.
Perhaps Al Gore will attempt to explain this. I know…..cooling is due to warming….or some such claptrap
Chuck:
Oh, Lord… HAARP? Next, you will be bringing up chemtrails.
BTW.. The “Centurion”-style aluminum-foil hat works best at keeping the NSA out.
It is October. Alaska is partly above the Arctic Circle – so snowfall this time of year isn’t really unexpected.
All of Alaska is south of the Artic Circle.
Buy a new map, moron. I’m at work right now, about 100 miles north of the Arctic circle, in Alaska. There are several hundred miles of Alaska north of me, and well north of the Circle. We’ve had snow on the ground here for at least a couple of weeks, and it will be here until next June.
LOL! That “Global Warming” icon in the LH upper corner is just a tad bit risible…Eh?
Depends what you define as “early”. Just going by recent memory, 2007-9 we had first recorded snowfalls here in Anchorage in early/mid September. Last few years it’s been late October. In fact last year was the first week of November IIRC.
Also, three years ago we set the record for the highest recorded snowfall in Anchorage (>200″ at my house). The year after, we came close to the coldest winter on record, but then last year was almost a record low snowfall.
The only thing predicatable about Alaska weather is that it’s unpredicatble! 🙂

I’m pretty sure the sky is falling also. Stay inside, kiddies!
Never seen -80 , nice here today 45 and sunny !!, Palmer ,Alaska
You are off your rocker and obviously don’t live here. It’s fall for you, winter is beginning for us. Right on schedule.
Dr. Roy, average time of year for snowfall here in Fairbanks is late September. Nothing early about this year.
Snow in Canada Hmmmmm
EARLIEST EVER….hmmmmmmmm I guess that slipped by you
So I see we will have another epic winter of shoveling lots of global warming to dig our cars out.
Biggest scam ever..one day the perpetrators and their willing accomplices will hang for their trillion dollar fraud…the public will learn of the trillions taken from their children’s and grandchildren mouths to line the pockets of these modern day snake oil salesman…there will be no noose too loose for these criminals.0
When TEMPOERATURES RISE ALL OVER THE ENTIRE WORLD (Global Warming) things get colder…….right libs?
I mean that’s why we put trays of water in our ovens to make ice cubes….

East Anglia Global Warming Liar 2000
It’s amazing how many people fell for the warming hoax. For all we know, all the stuff man and cattle are injecting into the atmosphere may have started the current cooling trend earlier than nature had intended. If pollutants and water vapor absorb more light and heat from the sun, less is reaching the ground to warm it up. Not only that, more of the sun’s energy is being reflected back into space.
I’ve lived in Fairbanks, having snow at the end of September/ beginning of October is nothing new. This.is.not.news.
Cheers
Not GLOBAL WARMING……CLIMATE CHANGE….Spring, Summer, Winter, Fall……It happens every year, sometimes in extremes and sometimes non-extremes…..All I can see is man once again is trying to second guess intelligent design and making a mockery of himself…….This is just a play to use the weather as a cash register and put fear into the flock………Just like the Y2K scare. How many generators did they sell?, how many cases of water was sold?, how many MRE’s were bought? and who made the profit?……If you want to know what the weather is like move away from the computer and step outside.
Actually not really an early winter in (Interior) Alaska, this is pretty standard weather for early October. It may be early fall in the rest of the states, but it’s early winter in Interior Alaska. I live here, and have for 50 years.
We are having the warmest fall ever here in Nova Scotia.
Enjoy the Snow Job.
Enjoy it while it lasts because you could be in for a very cold winter. It depends on where the polar vortex dips southward and how far it stretches east and west.
On July 4th in Barrow we had snow flurries in 1995. It can snow any time of the year in Alaska. May not stick, but it can snow.
The distribution of ozone in the stratosphere in the north is similar to last year. Therefore, snow may be similar. In Alaska will not be too cold. Cold is in the north east of America.

Have been in Alaska for 35 years…I have seen -77F… That is not wind chill….I have also witnessed
+90s in the long Summer days in the Interior…. – 80F at Prospect is entirely possible…Cold dense Arctic air-masses can sit in low areas and with no wind to stir things up, can get very cold in the dark Arctic Winter…Prospect Creek is North of the Arctic Circle in the Upper Koyukuk River Drainage…
I remember it snowing (2-4 inches) in the Adirondack’s the last week of September back in 1982. Perhaps we are heading back to the good ole days when winters were cold and snowy and Global Warmists kept to themselves.
The earth has not warmed in 18 years!!! Google &Youtube The Eli King Show!!!
The leftist taxmongers are panicking because they know we’re in for another brutal winter. All the actual data points to such an occurrence. They also know another brutal winter will further expose the real truth about their warming hoax and kill their plans for a carbon tax.
Thank you, Mother Nature!
The hoax perpetrators went from calling it “man-made global warming” to “climate change.” When most of us realize the “change” in climate means cooling, not warming, the left will be looking for a way to stick us with an air pollution tax, because that’s the real problem, especially in China and India. Beats me why the left ignored the real problem and perpetrated this warming hoax.
I don’t think cooling or warming matters except that humans have to adapt to whatever condition exists….but on another topic, why isn’t there more of a push to charge these high levels actors, say Al Gore or the UN IPCC, with fraud. Their have been websites initiated for class action lawsuits and particularly a push to remove this pseudo science from school curriculums. Many many people could and would get behind this to expose the agenda further.
I’m a little behind. Is this early snowfall due to global warming, global cooling, climate change or climate disruption?
I’ve lived in central AK and by the 15th of September every year I was there it had already started snowing by then and didn’t melt until late spring. As for -80, never saw colder than -50. Is the author of this story trying to stir something up?
Heavy snow disrupted traffic in far northeastern Finland and neighboring Russia. An eighteen year old woman tweeted. “What’s wrong with these people? Why are they so upset? It snows here EVERY winter. Its Finland.”
In Russia, early and harsh winter. The air directly from the north.

Relative to where Roy Spencer lives, Winter arrives early in Alaska.
But wasn’t that supposed to change?
I live in Northern Minnesota- we had a small amount of snow here about 3 days ago. It snows early and late here most years. We are in the low 30’s almost every night now and have been for a few weeks and now we might hit 70 next week :). I think MN weather is about as unpredictable as Alaska and if I moved to Alaska I’m not sure I’d notice much difference.
Forecast for October 12. High pressure over California.

Repeat after me…. GLOBAL WARMING! (now scream Arrrrgghhhh) then send Al Gore (the inventor of the internet) your money!
Snow in all Canadian provinces? Huh? I am in Vancouver and there is not a hint of snow or even fall for that matter as all the leaves are still green.
Sensational to pick pockets of areas for just a headline. You can even go to Palm Springs and say it snowed there if you take the tram up the top of the only mountain in town.
It snowed 3 times at Prudhoe Bay in the last three weeks….twice in August, once in June nothing to see here….move along….
Every White country on the planet is forced to become multicultural and multiracial.
EVERY white country is told to end its own race and culture.
No one asks that of ANY non-White country. Immigration and forced-assimilation is for ALL & ONLY White countries.
Anti-Whites call themselves “anti-racist”, but their words & actions lead to the genocide of only one group: White people.
The true goal of anti-racism is to genocide my people.
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-White.
And last winter it was mild. There is no such thing as static weather. It fluctuates year to year, and sometimes wildly. It would be nice if people would look beyond their own lifetimes and see that over centuries,..extreme weather is more normal than they realize.
We have two seasons in Alaska. Summer and Winter. That’s it.
Record cold temperature
Rogers Pass in Montana is the location of the coldest temperature ever recorded in the United States outside of Alaska. On January 20, 1954, a low temperature of −70 F (−57 C) was recorded during a severe cold wave.[7]
Ha ha….Snow in all the Canadian Provinces. Do you realize that the Central Canadian Provinces are approximately equal in length to the distance from Mexico to the North US border? So ya, some snow is possible in every Province nearly every month of the year.
So it’s like saying it is always raining somewhere.
I hope that we are prepared for a severe winter coming in the uk and are not assuming it will be mild like last winter.
