Juneau Future Trends
Alaska · US States · Trend-based projections to 2050
This page uses Juneau's own 50 year weather record to project one trend line forward to 2030, 2040 and 2050, with a Best and Worst scenario range built from the trend's own statistical uncertainty. For where that trend has already gone, see the Climate Capitals Trends, or for current and historical day-to-day weather, see Meteo Capital Cities.

Frequently asked questions about Juneau's projected trends
How warm will Juneau be in 2050?
Extrapolated from Juneau's own record since 1976, the average daytime high in 2050 works out at roughly 8.6°C, up 1.0°C from 2025. This is a straight-line projection of measured weather data, not a climate model or a scenario-based forecast.
How certain is the temperature projection for Juneau?
The 2050 range runs from 7.8°C to 9.3°C. That spread comes from the 95% confidence interval on the trend line's own slope, so the noisier Juneau's record, the wider the band. The trend accounts for 27% of the variation between years; the rest is ordinary year-to-year swing.
How many days above 30°C will Juneau get in 2050?
The trend line lands on roughly 0 days above 30°C a year in 2050, against 0 in 2025. So no increase here, which means the warming in this city sits in the milder months rather than the summer peaks.
Will Juneau still get frost in 2050?
The trend line lands on roughly 99 frost days a year in 2050, against 84 in 2025. Fewer frost days sounds pleasant, but it also shortens the natural cold period plants and pest control rely on.
Is Juneau getting wetter or drier by 2050?
The trend line lands on roughly 3582mm of precipitation a year in 2050, against 3587mm in 2025, so drier. An annual total says little about distribution though: the same rainfall can arrive in shorter, harder bursts, and that is what loads drains and water storage.
Will Juneau get more sunshine by 2050?
The trend line lands on roughly 1999 sunshine hours a year in 2050, against 1799 in 2025, so more sun. Sunshine hours bear directly on rooftop solar yield, though heat works against it at the same time: a panel loses efficiency at high temperatures.
