Deep Freeze

Last night, the wind gusts in and around Anchorage were up to 45 mph, and the wind chill in my part of the city this morning made it feel like -15 degrees.  The snow now looks like sand dunes, and the wind makes the snow feel like icy cold sand hitting your face and eyes as you walk outside.  Remember what I said before about the cold not being that bad?  Last week, it wasn’t.  But I take it back now.  Holy @#*%, it’s cold!

I’ve been told that this is unusually early for such frigid temperatures.  Even the locals are complaining of the cold.  Aren’t Jay and I lucky?  Good thing I have a long, puffy down coat and trapper hat.  Brr.
