အလာစကား မွာႏွင္းက်တာသတင္းမဟုတ္ ေတာ့ပါဘူး။ ဒါေပမဲ့ မေန့ကေတာ့ အလစကားျပည္နယ္ ကြန္ဒိုဗာ ဆိုတဲ့အရပ္ မွာ ႏွင္း ၁၈ အထိက်ခဲ့တဲ့အတြက္သတင္း ၾကီးတပုဒ္ျဖစ္လာခဲ့တယ္။ ကြန္ဒိုဗာက ကမ္းရိုးတန္ေဒသျဖစ္ျပီး လူဦးေရ ၂ေထာင့္ရိွတယ္။

Snow in Alaska doesn't usually make big headlines, but even The Last Frontier has extremes.
Cordova, an isolated coastal town of about 2,000 people about 150 miles east of Anchorage, appears to be one of the hardest-hit locales, with the state National Guard reporting that it was sending Guardsmen and resources Monday after weeks of record snowfall left the city  buried under 18 feet of the white stuff.
The state activated its State Emergency Operations Center on Friday to help Cordova handle the snow. The town had issued a disaster declaration earlier in the day.
