Another year, another ice out date. As in previous years<\/a>, here’s an update of the Nenana Ice Classic<\/a> time series (raw date, and then with a small adjustment for the calendrical variations in ‘spring’). One time series doesn’t prove much, but this is of course part of a much larger archive of phenomenological climate-related data that I’ve talked about<\/a> before.<\/p>\n

This year the ice on the Tanana River went out on May 1st, oddly enough the same date as last year, after another very warm (but quite snowy) Alaskan winter. <\/p>\n

My shadow bet on whether any climate contrarian site will mention this dataset remains in play (none have since 2013 which was an record late year). [Update: It was mentioned on WUWT<\/a>!]<\/p>\n\n<\/div> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
