| River and stream waters rose dramatically between June 2 and June 3 and water levels have been about normal since then. Mostly driven by snow melt and glacial melt in hot weather in the first part of June when it was dry and hot (70's is hot here, 78F is really hot). Some wildfires. Several afternoons with lightning, which used to be rare here.
Temperatures cooled to the 60's in the latter half of June and brief periods of rain in late June helped alleviate the dryness. Everything is very green, although green up came late and gardens were planted late - the soil was too cold. We also had our last freeze very late, in early June.
Plenty of birds and moose arrived in June. One moose calf was stranded on a gravel bar in the Matanuska River in early June - rafters may have rescued him the evening before waters rose again, higher than he could have swum across. He had tried at least twice to reach shore and returned to gravel bars after being caught in swift currents. This was near a highway pullout and observed by many people. |

| The heat of summer has arrived. Very high humidity and hot with heat indexes over 100 daily. For the month of June we received 6.51" of rain, which is 1.48 above normal. For the months of April and May, we received 7.7 and 5.39" respectively, so for the three month (Apr-Jun) period we were 5.45" above normal. Ponds and creeks looking good. There may be a transition to dry conditions but time will tell. Winter wheat is still not harvested due to wet field conditions. Everything is green and lush going into the hot months of summer. |
