quite a record.

Interesting... thanks for sharing!

Almost 30 degrees above normal ... in ALASKA ... in November. :o I'm amazed.

Yes...but check out their current temp and forecast-no more November warmth!!

True.... no more November warmth...but STILL above normal for this time of the year ....

On Nov 10...Fairbanks had a high of 30F and a low of 14F.
The average temperatures for this time of year are highs of 13F and lows of -4F.

So still 10-15F above normal....even though it definitely has been colder.

The extreme warmth has turned to extreme cold pretty quickly. Check out the low temps expected outside of Fairbanks, AK for the upcoming weekend. Possibly down to -40 degrees.
