Green Up Day 2024

By icefogger

The Fairbanks phenomenon known as Green Up Day occurred this Saturday.

When I drove into work early that morning, there was not a green bud noticeable.

Upon my return in the late afternoon, the hills were glowing a vibrant green.

As a reminder that we are in Alaska, it snowed all day Monday.
