One of the rare times the Yukon River went out at Dawson well before the Tanana River went out at Nenana as it happened in May 2013.
The Tanana River went out on May 20 1964 at 1141am, and May 20 2013 at 241pm, the far distant latest day the ice has ever gone out.
However the May 20 1964 is still the official latest time by 21 hours because there was a Feb 29 leap year day.
Looks like another week of warm early April weather around here as forecasts are calling for highs in the +20's to +30's F and lows in the +10's F.
If my area sees some of the same conditions during February, it is going to be a frigid March and April.
