swt61 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 Sunrise and sunsets last maybe 30-45 minutes in Anchorage, during the Winter months. A day is just a day. Alaska Winters are more chain drive than belt drive. Quote
swt61 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 The sunsets are gorgeous! Lots of Purple... Quote
Smeggy Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 that looks cold enough to freeze a moose's nuts! Quote
spritzer Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 I think I'd feel right at home in Alaska... Quote
swt61 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 I imagine I'd feel at home in Iceland too. You know you're living somewhere too hot, when your fillings melt. Quote
grawk Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 You know you're living somewhere too hot when it's january and ice is slippery. Quote
cetoole Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 What does ice feel like underfoot at -40? Just like cold ground? Quote
spritzer Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 Here in the south of Iceland we never see temps this low but -5 Quote
Fitz Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 (edited) Fahrenheit or Celsius? Kelvin. Edited October 7, 2009 by Fitz Yes, I know. That's the whole joke. Quote

swt61 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 (edited) What does ice feel like underfoot at -40? Just like cold ground? Well Colin, Ice is ice, but if there's a layer of snow on top of that ice, it'll be very crunchy feeling at -40. And please don't attempt to sign your name in the snow at -40, leave that to us experts. There is a glacier just 30 miles south of Anchorage (Portage Glacier), and we would stop there on our road trips to fill our igloo cooler with glacier ice. It's so dense that it last much, much longer that common ice. It's a pretty Blue color too. Edited October 7, 2009 by swt61 Quote
Hopstretch Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 Is it just me, or have threads been drifting even further than usual today? Quote
Grahame Posted October 7, 2009 Report Posted October 7, 2009 Coming from HC's thread version of Continental drift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I'd say that's an example of Plate tectonics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, or at least, that's what your mom said Quote
