Alaska's Extreme Winter: Thickening Fuel Oil, Collapsing Roofs, and Record Snow Levels

Alaska is experiencing extreme cold and heavy snowfall, with temperatures well below zero and record-setting snowfall in cities like Anchorage and Juneau. The cold weather has caused heating fuel to thicken, leading to heating system failures and frozen water lines in some areas. Anchorage has opened warming facilities for those in need, and businesses are being warned to clear snow from rooftops to prevent collapses. Schools have faced closures and remote learning days, while residents cope with the challenging conditions.
