Living in almost complete darkness for 2+ months every winter, without a sled to ride or buddies to ride with, is a pretty apparent reason for his daily anger. Well, that and a Polaris factory rider taking out part of a dog sled team because he was "hauling ass" (which is 30 to 50 mph by Alaskan standards) in a cloud of snow dust. I can't wait to see the outrage when Polaris doesn't fire the guy, and he isn't charged with anything by the local authorities I'm sure he gets even more angry that some of us are laughing at the weather down here, and going out on our SxS's instead of sleds, and still having fun.

Alaska has less annual snowfall 90% of the time, but hey congratulations for this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Also it looks like Alaska is warmer on average by 10 degrees! Warmer and less snow, facts. No wonder why you're posting pics of roofs caved in with 8" of snow, those roofs haven't seen that snow load in decades! 😆 What we're seeing here is built up years and years of suffering from resentment over poor AK winters and now it's finally coming all out. This is your time for glory bro, this is your year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowiest cities in the US 1 Syracuse NY Average seasonal snowfall: 127.8 inches Record seasonal snowfall: 192.1 inches an hour and a half north is Tug Hill NY with an average around 300" per year 2.

So… snowfall totals only count for cities? Please set your goal posts deep in the ground with concrete before I respond and make you look like a complete ignorant ass.

For just $25.00 you could down load more pics and post them to make them your own again. I'm sure its a sacrifice for your financial budget but it seems to be a troublesome topic for you. There's your answer to your problem of posting pics. The choice is yours. Uh huh. I’m going to pay to post on here. I’ve got 4 threads on the first page of this forum.

Funny your more butt hurt about using the easy to find, easy to verify list of cities, that the fact that even Arizona gets more snow than the 2 largest cities in AK.. BTW no one gives a shit about back woods shit holes. Which is why despite the fact that pretty much every town and village on tug hill has a 30 year average snowfall over 300" you don't see them listed. Just like you only see 1 or 2 listings for all of AK despite it being almost 1/2 the size of the lower 48. Side note I might be heading up there for arctic man, my cousin has been begging me to visit for years, but she doesn't have a snowmachine, shes more into snow shoes, teli, and tenting. I've always wanted to go, but tenting in winter in ak doesn't seem like my idea of a great time. Whats the street price for store brand cough syrup, have to figure out if its worth paying for extra luggage.
