Alaskans brace for a record 12 feet of snow in two days

[RoseRed]

The snowiest place in Alaska could become the second snowiest as an atmospheric river is forecast to dump up to 144 inches of snow on the Chugach Mountains.

Mount Marcus Baker is the highest point in the Chugach Range, northeast of Anchorage and northwest of Valdez. Check out the snow forecast for a weather station near Sheep Mountain Airport, on the mountain at 13,176 feet in elevation:

Alaskans are built for this kind of weather. A bonus is that it will weed out all the new arrivals that watched too many NatGeo documentaries about living off the land in the 49th state.

I rolled through Tok with the RV way back in 2008 & 2009. It's the first real town after you cross the border with Canada. Great stop to purchase gasoline by the gallon instead of by the litre.
