At least certain areas, certain activities & perhaps your location of choice.
Like if you choose to live in "Deadhorse", which experienced temperatures of -50 below zero degrees! With the wind chill real feel it was -88 degrees!! Damn!!
A few others of note:
Bettles - -51
Prudhoe Bay - -47
Nuiqsut - -53
Howard Pass - -91 with wind chill factor
It got cold one night while I was there and was like -5 degrees in the mid of night, and that was bad. I couldn't even imagine what -70+ must feel like.
Bone-chilling cold makes it feel like 88 below zero in remote Alaskan town
As temperatures rise across the West Coast, potentially breaking records across California, it's a different story farther north in Alaska. Thanks to a combination of dangerously low temperatures and bitter winds, bone-chilling weather has overtaken the Last Frontier this week.
Bettles, Alaska, located in the north-central part of the state, had a low temperature of 51 degrees below zero Fahrenheit Sunday morning, well below the average of 15 below zero F this time of year. During the day Sunday, the afternoon temperature barely peaked at 25 below zero F. Prudhoe Bay, situated on the state's northeast coast, had similar conditions with a morning low of 47 below zero and a daytime high of 27 below zero, both well below the average low of 21 below zero F.
On Monday morning, the remote northern town of Deadhorse reached 50 below zero, with gusty winds bringing the AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperature to as low as 88 below zero. Believe it or not, that's not the coldest it's ever felt in Deadhorse. A RealFeel of 101 below zero occurred on Jan. 28, 1989. (RealFeel was introduced by AccuWeather in 1997 but can be estimated using historical data). On Wednesday morning, the actual temperature slipped to 54 below zero, but RealFeel Temperatures bottomed out at 79 below zero.
Meanwhile, Nuiqsut hit an actual temperature of 53 below zero. Howard Pass, home to some of the state's most extreme weather, reported a wind chill of 91 below zero, only a few degrees away from the town's unofficial record wind chill of 100 below zero F, set in 2014. On Wednesday morning, the actual temperature bottomed out at 49 below zero with a RealFeel near 60 below zero.
