Some of the most intense and vivid light pillars I've seen on the south side of Fairbanks tonight! I took a few more photos: photos.lwpetersen.com/Recent-Photos

I feel like Alaska is punking me. Going into my 3rd winter, but 2nd with basically no snow on the ground and single digit temps for the foreseeable future. I’m not complaining it’s cold, I’m complaining because I want my dog to learn to pull a sled

At least 20 people are unaccounted for in Kwigillingok, in the Y-K Delta as of Sunday morning, and several homes were flooded and carried away by the remnants of Typhoon Halong - the worst storm on record.

Damage is still being assessed along the coast of Western Alaska

I just finished knitting this hat I started ~20 years ago, decreased until I couldn’t anymore and panicked a little, then just started binding off the last few stitches 😅
