SilverSalmonAK<p>5:45AM: 44F, overcast.</p><p>Guess what? Clouds and showers/rain for the foreseeable future. </p><p>As painful as it is for me to admit it, we may need a bit more sun to bring May flowers from April showers. </p><p>At least our cruise visitors are getting the true SE Alaska experience. 😉 😎 👍 </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: 45F, overcast.</p><p>Chance of showers today. But hoo-boy, did it rain yesterday/last night! We had a smidge over an inch. </p><p>This is a wet, wet, spring. </p><p>I may be the only one happy about that. 😉 😆 </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>3:00PM: 47F, light rain.</p><p>It has rained all. Day. Long.</p><p>We've have a smidge over 1/2", while Ketchikan once again takes the SE rain crown with a 24 hr. total just shy of 2".</p><p>At least Sitka beat that perennial weather hog, Juneau.</p><p>They've only had .29".</p><p>Neener, neener, neener!</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: 48F, light rain.</p><p>The rain &amp; breezy conditions came in just as the NWS folks predicted. </p><p>John is planning to fish the May 1st king opening (different areas are open at different times before the "everywhere is fair game" opening July 1st) but the weather looks dicey. We'll see. </p><p>Shout-out to all highly-trained, professional meteorologists.

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:15AM: 43F, overcast.</p><p>A low is moving in with rain and wind tonight and tomorrow. At least it's a bit warmer.</p><p>In talking to folks around town, I'm hearing anecdotal evidence that last spring was cold and wet also. </p><p>I believe it was because I remember our porch veggies didn't do much last year and we blamed it on the late spring.</p><p>When does abnormal become normal?

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:15: 37F, mostly cloudy.</p><p>Gotta say, I'm tired of the weather clearing a bit and the temp dropping.

SilverSalmonAK<p>Here's a life in AK tip: When sending ANYTHING by ANY means, be sure to WRITE the recipients PHONE NUMBER on the packaging in several places, in big numbers. </p><p>My new office copier (!!!) has been sitting at Air Cargo for days 'cause...no number on it. Well, actually, the wrong number on it. No-one knows whose number it is. </p><p>Oh yeah - I never got the waybill either so had no idea it shipped. </p><p>As a double Virgo, this kinda stuff drives me nuts!</p><p><a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alaska</span></a> <a href="https://alaskan.social/tags/Sitka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sitka</span></a></p>
SilverSalmonAK<p>5:45: 42F, cloudy.</p><p>It's been raining steadily, almost an inch in the last 24hrs.

SilverSalmonAK<p>5:45AM: 46F, light rain.</p><p>It's been raining more than I thought it would (happy surprise!) and the NWS says we've had a bit over 1/2" in the last 24 hours.

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 39f, overcast.</p><p>There may be areas of fog this morning, but otherwise mostly sunny today. </p><p>John is considering going out with a friend sport-fishing this morning. For a salmon fisherman, our freezer is getting appallingly empty. The last weeks of winter kings were pretty sparse, unfortunately. </p><p>The year's salmon allocation was severely cut for trollers at the last Board of Fish meeting, so summer will certainly be sparse as well.</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>I feel a real affinity for ravens. Probably because I've always been a big Poe fan. 😉 Regardless, this guy/gal visited my office yesterday.

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 44F, overcast.</p><p>Same old, same old. Last night it rained steadily for a few hours after I went to bed. That was sweet to hear. 🥰 </p><p>Should be showers most of today.

SilverSalmonAK<p>6:00AM: 44F, overcast.</p><p>Dark in the mornings (nice!) but pretty sunny now when it's time for bed. (UGH!) OK - I start complaining earlier in the year 'cause I got to bed earlier. 😎 No judging!</p><p>This "midnight sun" thing gets old. Just sayin'.
