The climate review for summer 2024 in the Arctic is now posted in the Alaska and Arctic Climate Newsletter. Spoiler: warm and wet overall (but of course not everywhere). @Climatologist49

The Mendenhall River near Juneau has crested at the highest recorded level following the Sunday's release of the Suicide Basin glacial dammed lake. Juneau CB reporting areas have flooded that did not last year. Let me repeat: this is an unambiguous result of a warming climate and the rapid thinning of the Juneau Icefield glacier thinning. This did not occur on the Mendenhall River before 2011. #akwx #Summer2024 #ClimateChange
