April is the driest month on record for Anchorage, and the precipitation is less than a half inch in April.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Drought status was moderate across Alaska in 2021, with dryer years showing up more recently.
April is the driest month on record for Anchorage — the precipitation is less than a half inch in April. The average first 50 degree day for the city is April 15, but we are still waiting for that to happen “officially” in Anchorage. Last year we hit 50 degrees on April 16. That first 50-degree reading for the year is likely to happen in the next seven days.The high will remain over mainland areas, blocking the incoming lows, forcing them to hold over the Aleutians or slip south and under the ridge in order to move east.
Low pressure persists for the Aleutians over the week, with another large low moving in Wednesday to Thursday. Winds will increase and a mix of rain and snow showers is likely.
