Haines Junction, Yukon, is set for a warm and sunny start to the week, with mainly clear skies and temperatures hitting 20°C on Monday, July 13, 2026. The forecast suggests conditions are ideal for outdoor plans, though a switch to cloudier, wetter weather is expected later in the week.
The forecast calls for light southwest winds of 20 km/h, gusting to 40 km/h Monday afternoon, and a moderate UV index of 5. Residents and visitors are reminded to wear a hat, cover up, and apply sunscreen on exposed skin. With sunrise at 5:02 a.m. and sunset at 11:28 p.m., the village enjoys nearly 18.5 hours of daylight, giving plenty of time to enjoy the nice weather.
