Love the winters here? -40F, 3 1/2 hrs of "sunlight" (light reflecting off clouds), Ever hear of SAD (seasonal affective disorder) It causes depression, and a psychotic urge to end your own life. suicide rate skyrockets during winter. It's weird though, once you live here a while u get addicted. I moved to CO for a year and had to move back cuz I actually missed this godforsaken chunk of frozen earth.
The only time it is warm here is when the sun is out almost constantly, so it was really weird living where it's dark at night, but still warm. I couldn't handle the climate change. Alaska's like a whole other planet.
