I might add for those of you unfamiliar with living in such low temperatures, the real issue (for me, at least) is driving. My truck doesn'tdoesn't at all healthy in those temperatures, even though I use sythetic everything. Also, ice fog can make driving challenging. It's not me I'm worried about. It's the other drivers out there.
Anyway, assuming the forecast is correct, it'll be nice not to have any concerns over my flights
I escaped just now on AS192.
Added bonus I see daylight. (Yes there is an extreme difference in the winter close to solstice between even ANC and FAI).
