It wasn’t very long ago that we got a serious snowstorm in the Washington, DC, area that was called “Snowmageddon” and “Snowpocalypse.”
Well, it’s Alaska’s turn, apparently. Here’s a news story about it from the Reuters agency:
>>An “epic” storm was bearing down on western Alaska on Tuesday, the National Weather Service said, warning that it could be one of the worst on record for the state.
The storm, moving inland from the Aleutian Islands, was expected to bring hurricane-force winds with gusts up to 100 miles per hour, heavy snowfall, widespread coastal flooding and severe erosion to most of Alaska’s west coast, the National Weather Service warned.
“This will be an extremely dangerous and life threatening storm of an epic magnitude rarely experienced,” the service said in a special warning message on Tuesday.
