Wintertime (November–March) surface air temperatures at 14 stations throughout the state of Alaska are correlated with the Southern Oscillation Index and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation index, for the years 1954–2000. On the seasonal and monthly timescales, the principal results are: (i) During El Niño winters, temperatures are near normal in western Alaska but significantly warmer than normal for the eastern two‐thirds of the state. (ii) La Niña winters produce significant below normal temperatures statewide. (iii) Temperature patterns produced during El Niño, La Niña, and neutral winters are modified by the concurrent state of the North Pacific sea‐surface temperature anomalies, as indicated by the Pacific Decadal Oscillation index.
