Still Winter on the North Slope


Another chilly morning on the North Slope. Lows Wednesday AM include:

Umiat: -34F
Ivotuk: -32F
Galbraith Lake: -22F
Atqasuk: -22F
Nuiqsut: -22F

This morning's NOAA-19 infrared image from 619AM shows the clear skies. Southwest of Umiat, in the upper Colville River drainage, is an area with surface temperatures around -40F. Not bad for mid-April.
