Alaska crazy weather: Will El Nino Warm Alaska's Cold Heart This Winter? | Alaska Dispatch

La Nina, or Cold Miser, was in control during the 2011-2012 winter that plunged much of Alaska into some of its coldest and snowiest months on record. In Anchorage, Alaska's largest city, this extraordinary season blanketed streets with upwards of 11 feet of snow, a new record. Other parts of the state were iced up for weeks, visited by deep freezes well below zero...Barrow shows no trend toward milder winters. It has been oscillating between 45 and 90 days of temperatures at least minus-20 for almost 100 years. The same goes for Nome, which has been in the range of 60 to 90 days below zero since near the Gold Rush days.
