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.
