Most of the dry lakes and streams were on the south side of the island. I am thinking this is one of many lakes that cattle use for drinking.

Federal fisheries experts paint devastating picture of the challenges facing Pacific salmon and point to climate change as the main culprit.

The National Weather Service has issued a flood advisory for Kenai Lake and the Kenai River near Cooper Landing.

Although native to southern Alaskan waters, Pacific pomfret (Brama japonica) are not often caught by salmon fishers.

Persistent high pressure over the Gulf of Alaska and Bristol Bay has kept most storms well away from the lower Kenai Peninsula. At Homer, total rainfall June 1-August 16 was only 53% of normal, making this the driest since 2004. The City of Seldovia has issued a "City Water Conservation Notice" on August 20th. The notice doesn't ban any specific water use but requests residents make an effort to use less water by minimizing watering lawns and washing cars and to take shorter showers.

“It was a beautiful event that we were lucky to have survived,” Andrew Hooper said.

Two popular rivers are being closed to fishing because almost no cohos are making it upstream.

"Nanwalek was in an emergency drought, we had to have water flown in for 60 households."

The school district plans to transport fuel from a group of 10 tanks into three new tanks expected to be placed in the Napakiak school parking lot further inland.

Fish in a local pond may have been washed to their new location during a recent severe rain event.

The main water line comes from Lily Lake through 10,000 feet of line. According to Supervisor Dennis Durr, “We’re making 130 gallons a minute right now. Normally this time of year we should be making at least 250 gallons a minute. We’re not keeping up right now, but we are making water. That’s good. That’s keeping us in the ball game here.”

“When I first started six years ago, icebergs like this were more common,” says a tour boat captain on the lake near Anchorage.

River otters observed within Anchorage city limits.

"Jakolof Creek is dry almost all the way up to the switchbacks and continues to recede. The early run of red salmon may have made it to the lake, but that is probably the only run that has."

Chignik Lagoon has been unable to produce enough water from their wells and has been pulling water from a creek since the beginning of June and subsequently have not been able to refill their water storage tank. The issue has been compounded by several substantial leaks in the water system. They have experienced up to 2 feet of water loss from their tank in one day.

More than 50 birds and a seal were found along the shoreline.

Ribbons of discolored water observed over Kizhuyak Bay that are likely related to a Noctilica bloom.

Visitors advised not to swim in lake and keep dogs on leash

High water posed safety hazards and resulted in the removal of boardwalk but also allowed boats to go further up river than usual.
