The climate of Juneau (Alaska - United States of America)
Juneau is located centrally in Alaska on the Gulf of Alaska and the Alexander Archipelago. Juneau has a long history. Indians already lived here centuries before the Common Era started. The Auke people and the Taku people had a rich culture with decorated handcraft, woven rugs, art, song and dance. Juneau is still an important center for these cultures.
Juneau is situated where a cold sea climate changes into a subarctic climate. The weather here is relatively mild. During the winter it does not get as cold here as in other parts of Alaska. This is caused by a tempering effect of the ocean. From November till March large amounts of snow fall. Summers are relatively cool. There is not much difference in temperatures between summer and winter.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
