 Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Alaska Weather Podcast — it's Thursday, February 26th. Folks, this is the kind of cold that doesn't just bite. It claws. An arctic airmass has clamped down on Alaska. And it's digging in hard. The numbers are brutal, but the wind chills? They're what'll get you. Here in Southcentral, you stepped outside to minus 5 degrees this morning. But that north wind gusting to 25 miles an hour? It makes it feel like minU S Two6. That's frostbite-in-minutes territory. We climb to 5 degrees this afternoon under sunny skies. Tonight drops to minU S One4. Now push north to the Interior. Fairbanks hit minus 35 degrees overnight. Wind chills could sink to minus 35 degrees by this evening. Your high today? MinU S One7. Tonight crashes back to minus 35 degrees. This is the kind of cold where your breath freezes mid-air. Down in Southeast, it's a completely different story. Snow showers are dumping 1 to 3 inches through this morning before tapering off. Highs reach 26 degrees. Tonight falls to 12, but that northeast wind makes it feel like zero. A Blizzard Warning is up for Isabel Pass through 3 P.M. today. Whiteout conditions from blowing snow. Thompson Pass is seeing gusts to 85 miles an hour. If you're traveling those passes, delay your trip. Looking ahead.. This deep freeze isn't budging. Southcentral slowly warms into the teens by early next week. The Interior stays locked in the minus 30s and minus 40s through the weekend. Southeast gets more snow Saturday into early next week. We're gaining nearly 6 minutes of daylight today. Spring equinox is three weeks out. But winter? It's got unfinished business. Cover every inch of skin if you're heading out. Seriously. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
