Been checking the Anchorage forecasts, and it below -4 frequently and well below 14 during the day, that is very cold for Anchorage in November.. but I guess it's just a reminder of how north Anchorage really is despite its 'milder' winters for how far north it is.

I'm itching to go too, if I didn't have to work I'm still hoping to travel to Siberia in January of 2013 or 14.

Remember last winter when I slept outside in upstate NY when it was -27F?

How is it so much colder than normal then in places like Fairbanks/ Ft. Yukon? If it's warmer to the north, is it just an abnormally dry, slack easterly plus a few days of gradual cooling under clear skies?

Today in Anchorage the temperatures have read 0F/-9F for the high/low, so far. That is both a record low temp and a record low max temp for this date.

Yesterday also had a record low max with a 7F reading.

I doubt it will come to the US until the middle of December at the rate we're going now.

I don't understand the question. The interior is currently colder than south-central, as is usual in the winter. It's also currently colder than the north slope, which is also usual in the winter. In the summer it's usual for the interior to be warmer than both south-central and the north slope. The interior receives very little oceanic moderation, whereas the rest of Alaska is ruled by it.
