What is the Weather like in Alaska?

When it comes to Alaskan weather, we know what you’re thinking: cold, cold and more cold. And you’d be right for the most part. In this neck of the woods, the cruise season is only five or six months, and Alaska’s weather doesn’t stay the same for very long. So from May to September, here’s what you can expect weather-wise…

As cruise season kicks off in mid-May, temperatures start to warm up, although it’s hardly t-shirt weather. Snow is still around too, so pack warm winter layers and hiking boots, as it can be tricky to get about otherwise. In June, expect long days, sunny weather and more warmth. With 19 hours of daylight, sunglasses are going to be essential, as are layers you can take off at a moment’s notice.

Alaska’s warmest month, July brings the crowds out in full force. It’s also its most unpredictable; you’ll either face the heat or be met by rainfall and a fair share of clouds. Packable windbreakers and jackets will come in handy, as will pants you can zip into shorts. You never know when things might hot up. Moving into August, rain showers are more common, although temperatures and sunlight remain on the high side. Still, though, waterproofs and wool socks are essential, so make sure they’re part of your Alaskan attire.
