Freezing Rain: Day 89


These are strange times for weather up here near the arctic. A persistent high pressure ridge continues to loom over the North Pacific, bringing severe drought to the west and significantly warmer temperatures to Alaska. So warm in fact that it rained this past weekend in Fairbanks, during what should be the coldest month of the year. It's snowing again this morning, but with temperatures just barely below freezing, this new snow is at risk of becoming another layer of ice.
