Global Warming Slams Alaska
Al Gore, you genius, Alaska just got slammed.
The temperature at Fairbanks International Airport hit 50 below zero Saturday morning for the first time since 2006, while a low of 57 below was reported in North Pole.
Fort Yukon and Huslia were the coldest Interior communities at 63 below zero, while two others beat their own records.
Tanana hit 61 below zero Saturday morning, breaking its previous record low of 58 below, set in 1919, and Bettles, at 60 below, broke its previous record of 56 below, which was set in 1989.
Since 1919? Wait...I thought the earth was warming? Almost 100 years and parts of Alaska are colder than they were. Al Gore, you global warming soothsayer!
UPDATE: My my my....it keeps getting colder.
Jim River, AK closed in on the all time record coldest temperature of -80°F set in 1971, which is not only the Alaska all-time record, but the record for the entire United States.
