And the same may be true of all the WSO sites due to lack of staffing.

It is a bit troubling to see such missing climate data from a 1st order station (Utqiagvik/Barrow NWS).<br /><br />For Southeast, Haines gets the 1st snow award (sea level) as far as I can tell with a trace on 2 days so far. Insignificant brief falls of snow pellets observed here at the coop site, and the METAR detected "snow" from 4:05 to 4:10 am on the 8th with the visibility dropping to 9 miles.
