ALASKA - USA Travel Guide | Around The World
Alaska is the 49th and largest state in the United States of America. Separated from the rest of the country, (the lower 48), by Canada, Alaska lies on the Arctic Circle. It is still the least densely populated state in the union and for a long time was home to the lowest population. America's final frontier is the size of California, Texas and Montana combined, making it huge in comparison to the rest of the states! Alaska is also home to the highest point in North America and all of the top ten highest mountains in the USA. Across the Bering Strait lies the country of Russia and the continent of Asia.

A Calming Location
10/12/2009 12:30 PM
Yet again, a place I had no intentions of going. I woke up this morning with thoughts of going to the shelter, well let's just say that didn't happen right away. I left the house, made the first two turns like so, but went straight at the third and got gas.. Then I just kept on going down the road until finally I reached a point where I'd been only once before, and even then I'd just stayed in the truck... This was before I even HAD my truck. The place is at the end of the west runway of Anchorage International Airport, RIGHT off the end so yes you get jets and small craft going by overhead continuously... But it was cool. I look up, wishing I were in one of them.. Oh well, it was a beautiful day, and something in me just said, ehh you're not going to the shelter yet, lol. So there I was, just skipping rocks into the inlet, feeling really good.. Funny thing is, I broke my phone's faceplate yet again while I was down there... That's the second time I've broken this thing, thankfully they still sell the replacements on ebay.. Hah, you would think I'm so abusive with my technology, but sometimes things like that are out of my control. The lanyard broke this time, and it landed face-down on a rock, yay me. I edited the part out but I broke it while I was taking video... And you would have heard a few choice words, LOL. Anyway, it was nice to get out in the weather we had today, clear my mind a little bit about some things been going on lately, but that's another story I'm not too keen to divulge online.. Learned that lesson once. lol.. Peaceful outing, I'm glad I went. It seems lately as though my best days are the ones where I go some place without planning anything.
I also had quite the fun time editing this video, playing more with settings and ghosting myself with 3 second fades, haha.
Alaska, USA 6 Collage Video - youtube.com/tanvideo11
Powered by - The climate in Southeast Alaska is a mid-latitude oceanic climate (Köppen climate classification: Cfb) in the southern sections and a subarctic oceanic climate (Köppen Cfc) in the northern parts. On an annual basis, Southeast is both the wettest and warmest part of Alaska with milder temperatures in the winter and high precipitation throughout the year. Juneau averages over 50 in (130 cm) of precipitation a year, and Ketchikan averages over 150 in (380 cm). This is also the only region in Alaska in which the average daytime high temperature is above freezing during the winter months.
The climate of Anchorage and south central Alaska is mild by Alaskan standards due to the region's proximity to the seacoast. While the area gets less rain than southeast Alaska, it gets more snow, and days tend to be clearer. On average, Anchorage receives 16 in (41 cm) of precipitation a year, with around 75 in (190 cm) of snow, although there are areas in the south central which receive far more snow. It is a subarctic climate (Köppen: Dfc) due to its brief, cool summers.
The climate of Western Alaska is determined in large part by the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska. It is a subarctic oceanic climate in the southwest and a continental subarctic climate farther north. The temperature is somewhat moderate considering how far north the area is. This region has a tremendous amount of variety in precipitation. An area stretching from the northern side of the Seward Peninsula to the Kobuk River valley (i. e., the region around Kotzebue Sound) is technically a desert, with portions receiving less than 10 in (25 cm) of precipitation annually. On the other extreme, some locations between Dillingham and Bethel average around 100 in (250 cm) of precipitation.
The climate of the interior of Alaska is subarctic. Some of the highest and lowest temperatures in Alaska occur around the area near Fairbanks. The summers may have temperatures reaching into the 90s °F (the low-to-mid 30s °C), while in the winter, the temperature can fall below −60 °F (−51 °C). Precipitation is sparse in the Interior, often less than 10 in (25 cm) a year, but what precipitation falls in the winter tends to stay the entire winter.
