We live in a wild frontier that is for sure! You can go to bed at 10 degrees only to wake up to 45 degree weather that melts the snow in one day.

We go from 45 degree weather to wind chills of -25F or more in a matter of hours :-) Never a dull moment here in Alaska!

This weekend was a fantastic display of the power wind has and left many without power yesterday evening. Winds gusted upwards of 80 MPH!

Tonights forecast is a bit better: "WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 5 AM AST TUESDAY...
A WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 5 AM AST TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES OF 10 TO 20 BELOW COMBINED WITH SUSTAINED WINDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH WILL RESULT IN LOCAL WIND CHILLS TO 40 BELOW ZERO."

Where your coats and bundle up Ya All.... looks like this is going to continue through Wednesday http://www.weatherforyou.com/weather/alaska/wasilla.html
