   There’s no sugarcoating it — this has been an historic snowstorm.   
      
   In some parts of Anchorage, the power went out late Tuesday night and just   
   came back on Friday night, after a major snowstorm walloped Alaska’s   
   largest city this week.   
      
   One resident in the Turnagain neighborhood reported all of his freezer and   
   refrigerator contents had to be tossed. The Chugach Electric Association   
   power outage map is at this link.   
      
   Those with electric cars in some neighborhoods were out of luck With power   
   out, there was no charging up, unless they had gas-powered generators.   
      
   About 1,500 in Anchorage were without power on Friday afternoon. As of   
   Friday night, nearly 1,000 customers were still dark, including some on   
   the Hillside, where snow depth reached 30 inches.   
      
   For the second day in a row, there was more than 9 inches of snow in   
   Anchorage, and the snow depth of 21 inches exceeds the greatest for so   
   early in the season, according to the National Weather Service. The   
   season-to-date snow of 27.4" already exceeds the 25.1" for all of 2014-15,   
   NWS said.   
      
   In other areas of Southcentral, outages are still reported in Halibut   
   Cove, a few outages are current in Homer, and 341 in the Kenai area.

   Solitude Resort in Utah just had its earliest opening since 1983. Smacks   
   at the climate alarmists. I’m sure they’ll chant “we did it, no time to   
   become complacen.t”   
      
   Meanwhile, I’ll go on scratching my head.
