Well look at that. People can actually drive in the snow. Lower 48, take note. No plows, no salt all over the place. It's a Christmas miracle!!

I wish that we could had so much snow here in Europe, but it has become a rare sight for a couple of years now. Last time it snowed like in this video was in 2010 when we had 40" of snow in a few hours. Could you please send us some of the snow you don't need over here please? :)

Didn't know there was a new Seward Highway. Drove to Seward a lot but can't remember the way anymore. I guess 45 years will do it.

What's funny is you won't see hardly anyone using tire chains except the UPS, FedEx and Postal Service. It's all about the right tires. I have been using Bridgestone Blizzaks for years, but only in the winter on my Escalade.

Absolutely. I have a set of Nokian Hakkapeliittas and scored some Blizzaks in the summer for a cheap price. Both have been excellent.

Had another two feet here just north of Wasilla from last night.

А что такого? Это ерунда! Надо бы дороги почистить, а так нормально.

Pretty much everyone up here knows how to get around in snow. And I don’t think I know a single family that doesn’t have a 4wd vehicle. Usually a truck but Subarus are very popular up here. Snowfall problems in Anchorage generally arise from our completely incompetent Mayor. Snow removal has been a total mess ever since he took office. Plus he probably needs the snow removal budget to defend the endless lawsuits he gets Anchorage messed up in. Like the newest one coming down the chute - the Mayor’s hand-picked IT Director and his former hand-picked Chief of Staff getting caught trying to falsify our elections. And our idiot Mayor “let” the IT Director resign instead of firing him and having both charged with crimes. The city is probably going to cough up millions when it’s all said and done.

OMG Global warming LOl

I would've assumed 18 inches is nothing up there. We just had 24 inches and that's not even close to a record. Good old 89402.
