Rick ThomanSea surface temperatures differences from the 1991-2020 baseline average in and around Alaska for the week ending June 26 in data from NOAA/PSL/ESRL. Still some below average #SST in the southeast Bering Sea and western Gulf of Alaska. Southern Chukchi Sea partly sea ice impacted. #akwx #Arctic

Still below normal in sea ice impact areas in the southern Chukchi Sea. Western Gulf of Alaska a bit cooler than average. Data courtesy NOAA/PSL/ESRL. @Climatologist49 @Jdnome
Low temperature at Utqiaġvik Saturday morning of 24F (-4.4C) is the lowest temperature this late in June or any day in July in 47 years. Last time it was colder was June 27, 1979, when the temperature dipped to 22F (-5.6C). #akwx #Arctic #weather @[email protected]

As @extremetemps.bsky.social has documented, all time-record high temps in northwest Siberia past couple of days. Beliy Island (73.3ºN) hit 28.3C (83F), apparently the highest temp so far north anywhere in the world. But this heatwave is distinct from the European heatwave.

Ice animates the look and feel of climate change. It is melting faster than ever before, causing social upheaval among northern coastal communities and disrupting a more southern, temperate world as sea levels rise.

Arctic marine heat waves surge since 1980s, with record event lasting 480 days
In recent years, marine heat waves have been taking an ever-greater toll on the world's oceans and their ecosystems. Amplified by increasing global warming, these events are occurring more frequently and lasting longer. The Arctic is not spared from this trend, as it is warming faster than any other region on our planet. However, due to local processes and conditions, marine heat waves in the Arctic differ fundamentally from those in nonpolar oceans. A recent study led by the Alfred Wegener Institute, published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment, summarizes how these events have developed over recent decades and what science knows about the driving forces behind them.
