Dont you watch the news or listen to the radio? Yeah the whole state is warm. We are starting to cool down here in Fairbanks. We didnt get the crazy melting like Wasilla and Anchorage, probably since we came from a deep freeze the weeks before.

It's all Jackie's fault.

This is Alaska get used to it. This has happened every year for the last 47 years that I can remember. On the bright side, it's great weather for chopping firewood for the next 30 below cold spell. I've lost all two feet of snow in my yard and most of the ice is gone too.

It is snowing in ANC......

Looking out the window @ 6:30pm on Tuesday Night here in Anchorage. Is that snow I am seeing? or maybe it is an illusion. If it is snowing here, it has to be snowing everywhere else :) Back to the slope for a couple. Hope it snows hard!!

All of our snow is ice. Currently 20f and maybe some snow in the next 2 days.
K300 really lucked out on the temps cooling back down and water dropping.
Maybe next week will start looking ptramigans. My 6yr old girl wants to go out and break in her 22.

Can someone please explain to me how you can have two storms go right up either side of the state and TOTALLY miss the south central part? The weather patterns up here are just unbelievable. You watch the weather and there is a storm the size of the freaking state and it TOTALLY misses the south central WTF is up with that.. Sorry, just a little bummed..

Dude don't worry about it. This weather happens every year like this. I hope you have your sick/going sledding days saved up, because when it starts snowing again, it won't stop. We generally get the most snow from the end of January through March. Patience grasshopper :cool:

Waiting for snow is one of the greatest forms of patience building exercises. Trust me i practice this every year. The problem is when i go out of state tired of waiting for the snow, and all of the sudden a nice nasty storm blows through leaving freshies everywhere and i am stuck out o state wanting to get back asap

Same happens to me. I'll donate some air miles if that will get us some snow. Where do you want to go?:D

I want to know how these so called weather forecasters can sleep at night knowing that they get paid to stand infront of 100,000+ people and tell them something that has not even a 50/50 chance of being right.

LOL, we had these same "pissed at the weatherman" posts back east too. :D
