  • Looks like it's unusual for late September, since I'm guessing winter itself is from about October 10 until about April 10. Is that a good guesstimate?

  • We do get snow flurries from time to time in September (likewise as late as early June), but you are correct in that the first 'laying' snow doesn't usually appear until October.

  • the cold is unreal in Fairbanks. I saw it was like -55 F last year. Why would anyone want to live in that? Why not just move to antarctica?

  • I just love Fairbanks! The cold is only a minor inconvenience. Hehehe

  • at least you have the northern lights. got any videos of that?

  • Unfortunately not. You have to really use a long exposure to capture still shots of them, and they don't show up on video tape (at least not with my camera). I'm thinking of creating a slideshow of some of my stills of Alaska. I'll make sure to include some northern lights shots in it.

  • @avery5of5 The July flurries is unconfirmed but the August flurries was confirmed. The claims of both were only one time things. We've had snow in June and September a few times, I know, but the latest it's common is May and earliest it's common is October.

  • @MVillani1985 Flurries??? IN JULY and AUGUST? Ok that would suck....

  • Hey does the Abominable snowman really bounce ? that's been bugging me since I was a kid

  • ah....cool, nice music and cute video with doggie!

  • ahhhh.......do that! thanks!

  • THAT WAS SO CUTE I LUV THE SONG

  • I think -55 would be way more pleasant than Antarctica's -120 and colder readings. Plus Fairbanks seems to have a downtown alot like Altoona, PA.

  • I do so remember this day. We had snow that day, too.

    :)

  • Around here we get our first "snowcover" snow around Thanksgiving and our spring thaw around the end of March or the beginning of April. But I've seen snow flurries here as late as mid-May and as early as the beginning of October, but I've heard it's flurried here as early as August and as late as July.
