SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 43F, light rain.</p><p>Very gusty winds now and all last night. The NWS didn't warn us that the gale winds would come onshore so it was a surprised when we came out of the ER last night.</p><p>"ER?" you may ask. Swear to God, I got something in my eye - just floated in from the ether - and it felt like a razor blade every time I closed my eye. After trying for 45 min on our own to get it out, it was off to the ER at 9PM. (I'm OK.)</p><p>Heck of an end to John's bday!</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>
SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 36F, overcast.</p><p>We went to bed commenting on how the weather had cleared and it was hard to imagine another front was poised to sweep through.</p><p>Woke up to about 1/2" of snow and endless (that is hyperbole) rain in the forecast. Well, rain/snow today and part of tomorrow, then rain as far as the eye can see (not hyperbole.)</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>
SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 36F, overcast.</p><p>We must have had a snow flurry last night because my phone's lock screen had snow falling over my forest scene.</p><p>Nothing stuck, however. At least where I am.</p><p>100% chance of snow showers today, so maybe I'll get another crazy pic of 50 cent piece sized flakes! </p><p>Come to think of it, are 50c pieces still in circulation? I haven't seen one in years.</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:30AM: 30F, clear.</p><p>Snow is likely tonight (60%), then 80% rain/snow Monday. </p><p>John is heading out to get a couple of days fishing in before Tuesday's 35SE gale.</p><p>Tuesday is also his birthday, so I guess his present is a bit of weather excitement!

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:30AM: 30F, fair. </p><p>Sunny days really bring home the amount of light we have now. It always amazes me how quickly the darkness recedes in the spring. </p><p>Ugh. At least I get a couple hours of dark at mid-summer here. When I lived in Tok, the best we got was civil twilight if I remember correctly. Maybe nautical? Civil is sun at 6 degrees below the horizon and nautical is 12. </p><p>I could read the newspaper outside at 1AM if that helps. </p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>
SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 31F, partly cloudy.</p><p>Looks like a good weekend for walking ahead. Rain (with the ever-present "chance" of snow) returns early in the week.</p><p>In other news, Sitka is without its main internet provider, GCI, as emergency subsea cable fixin' is happening for about 10 days. Last August, the Internet was down for 3 weeks.</p><p>It's quiet at the office, since ...no internet.</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 31F, a few clouds.</p><p>Today, sunny; Friday, sunny; Saturday, partly sunny; Sunday, mostly sunny. </p><p>Because I cannot be seen to be a Weather Scrooge, I'll allow the sun since I have had quite a bit of dark, rainy weather.</p><p>However, I do NOT want sun to become a habit! (Yes, I know the sunny season is soon upon us, but a girl can hope!)</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>
SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 37F, mostly cloudy.</p><p>80% chance of rain/snow showers today, which gives way to "mostly sunny" from Wednesday on.</p><p>It must have snowed a bit last night, there's a crust of some sort of icy something on the back deck.

SilverSalmonAK<p>5:45AM: 43F, overcast.</p><p>The NWS forecast this morning is delightfully detailed.</p><p>Rain showers before 7AM, then rain/snow between 7 and 4, then back to rain. High near 43 (done!) SE wind changing to SW in the afternoon could gust up to 30mph. </p><p>The kicker?</p><p>"New snow accumulation of around an inch possible."</p><p>"Le sigh."</p><p>I'll be in a bad mood from the time change for a few days...snow accumulation with freezing temps expected does NOT help!

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:45AM: 42F, light rain.</p><p>The weather out front (off the coast) is still not-great. Gale warning for tonight so both John (who wanted to go fishing) and the GCI cable repair boat (which is supposed to be fixing internet out by Angoon) are still docked. </p><p>But clearer weather is on its way by Tuesday night. Wednesday morning John will be out fishing and the cable repair boat will be out fixing...</p><p>...and Sitka won't have GCI internet for about 10 days. </p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/MyAlaskaWx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyAlaskaWx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/akwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>akwx</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a></p>

SilverSalmonAK<p>5:45AM: 40F, fairly heavy rain at the moment.</p><p>NWS says light rain, but it's really coming down up here at the Russian Cemetery!</p><p>We'll have rain/snow showers for the next few days then clearing skies and sun for midweek.

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 44F, overcast.</p><p>Right on schedule, rain started a bit after midnight. NWS nailed it this time. Rain today, heavy rain Friday.</p><p>The weather is so bad the repairs scheduled for GCI subsea cables (our internet will be down for 10 days) are postponed until Sunday.

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 39F, fog.</p><p>"Drizzle." That's the word of the morning from NWS. As a former English teacher, I can tell you it's the double "z" that makes it effective. </p><p>"Fizzle" is another apt double-Z word. But I digress.</p><p>Looks like actual rain will be coming back Wednesday. The "chance snow" has been pushed to the weekend.
