Alaskans Embrace Short Days And Long Nights In Coldest Of Winter
Santa Claus is not the only person preparing for a long winter night this holiday. North Pole Alaskans are getting set for the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year when the sun will shine for just under four hours. NBC’s Kerry Sanders reports for TODAY.

Nah, you would be fine there in the winter. In fact, being a little crazy is a requirement to live there this time of year.

Yay Somers in Alaska was on the Today's show! No way this thin blooded Floridian could live in Alaska! Too cold! 🥶 I need the daylight and heat even though it's going to be extremely cold by Florida standards this Christmas weekend! But hopefully no snow! But the panhandle might!
Hello fellow happy peoples from snowy NE Colorado! So happy to see the Somers family!
@SomersinAlaska ❤️🎅🎄
I Love the Somers Family.
Just sent this link to a good friend to watch, thank you for this awesome video!
I love the north. Peace
Somers in Alaska!!!!! The best you tube family!
wow, amazing!
Love the Sommers in Alaska!
I’m happy the Somers Family made it on the segment.
I miss Fairbanks every day!❤
Somers in Alaska is one of my favorite KZread channels.
Sweet nice video. I caught a fast glimpse of my own place on the hillside (valley shot), Its even more magical than you can see. Come visit Fairbanks and the surrounding areas in the winter for an unforgettable experience.
Happy peoples!!
Hi happy people Sommers family
Yay, Somers Family
Do not let these people fool you. We do live in igloos, but have upgraded to fireplaces instead of campfires, in our homes/apartments.
I haven’t been to Alaska but I did go to Iceland which has similar day/night scenario. I was literally jet lagged and sleep deprived the whole 8 days as of course flying from the US stopping in Canada then flying to Iceland which btw when I went had only 4 hours of darkness 😂 so I also literally was jet lagged for 2 weeks after coming back. So I totally understand what it’s like now for people who live in places like Alaska.
I live in Anchorage, they really exaggerate about Alaska.
I love Alaska the coldest days are around -57 in Moose Creek but I still would not call that brutal
to my winter friends, may I asked... do you have refrigerator even if your house in the snow area?
Remember the film "30 days of night " ?
Now you know how farmers do their chores every day
This time of year the nights are very long for Alaska it's the shortest days of the year numnut !
2:03 did this dude just go swimming fully clothed what in the world?
Hey I watch that family on KZread Jessica Aubrey Garrett and Evelyn and of course and of course their dad oh yeah and baby girl
I lived in Fairbanks for 2 years for college. I had to transfer because I hated the winters so much. Fun fact, thanks to climate change it doesn't get to -55 anymore

Did people know it is God that commands the sun and moon to come up at the times they do? Did you know snow, wind, rain, thunder, light, darkness are servants of God? Even the stars. If you don’t believe me, kindly read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation 10 chapters a day. It’s so exciting to find out about the world we live in, and they way we are expected to live and what happens if we don’t live the way we are expected to live. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Happy New YEAR 2023. The year 2023 is a servant of God too

Does God also command brain tumors of children? That's so exciting!
