Lots of snow and cold for our northern bros and sisters. Check out Chandalar Lake. I would say the fleet is grounded.

Not AK but close. Calling for -29 Straight and -59 W.Chill on Thursday here in my neck of the prairie, according to Accuweather.
Last week we set a record high of 46, but looks like we'll pay for it this week.
My horses don't care for much below -15F but they seem to do OK. -15F is tolerable after -40F or colder. We have been getting spoiled the last several years in Fairbanks, as the winters are warmer than normal. Now when it hits -30F everyone is complaining about the cold.
Hey! Anyone from Nebraska on here?
Look at these pictures of the ice storm!

Mit,
We had one down in Mississippi in 93 or 94. They estimated about 2 tons of ice between poles on the small lines. No telling what would have been on the Xmission lines. I'll have to get my friend to send me the photo if his 150 on the ramp after the storm.
In our storm it started late afternoon and continued into the night. about 3-4am the wind began to blow and all hell broke loose.
How did the pheasants fair with that ice??

-49 for two days at my place in North Pole. Nice and toasty now though!
Ya gotta live on a hill in Fairbanks, I have +18F right now at 5pm. About 4 days ago the coldest it has gotten all winter was -30F at my house.
I am out by Chena Lake and it is +15 now. It was just dang cold earlier this week!
Scout - The PA 12 and C172 [snowbirds] flew off the ice at Surfside on floats and are liking the 70's and low 80's here at Oak Harbor FL. 3 cubs, C172 and a Lake Amphib here on the water now! Gary Reeves flew the 12 the other day from Lake Clark. Come on down!
