AlaskaWx, 20 days ago to Canada

Break-up on the Yukon River at Dawson, YT occurred on on the afternoon of April 28. This was the fourth earliest break-up since 1896: only 1940, 2016 and 2019 were earlier. Typical break-up nowdays is more than a week earlier than it was in the early to mid 20th century. #ytwx #Canada #YukonRiver #hydrology #Climate @Climatologist49 @evaholland
