Oh. Looks behind to see bears on the path I just went through and that is the only way back. 😬🐻

Last week, I pulled every Feb 29 daily climate record (temp/precip/snow/snow depth) for every station in the U.S. and Canada. Expect to hear more about this in the coming week. 😀 @Junah_B@Junah_B The coldest U.S. Canada temp ever measured on a Feb 29th was -66°F at Hughes, Alaska, in 1956. #akwx@AlaskaWx 2/
