Yeow.. Usually I associate that with warming downsloping winds.. But cold arctic from the North sounds like quick freeze dried flesh.. They must still be moderating warmth and not subzero arctic like we think of and ahead of the real arctic air.. Temps are gonna drop when those winds let up.. Skip the kite flying..

Tad bit of a winchill in SW Alaska. The folks out crabbing are in port I have a feeling..
I don't see it coming down that far without moderating.. Give it time and the true blue Arctic blast will be coming..
