A friend recently went to Nome, Alaska where I used to live back in the late 90s. Some great photos. I do miss living here.

@AlaskaWx @Climatologist49 This pic was from 2021, but we're approaching it again. This is a neighbor's house. That danged wind. Also hate to see the potential rain.

When I first moved to Nome, back in 1998 from North Carolina, my friends/family asked weird questions like do "they" live in igloos? Will you have electricity? Will you have running water? The answer is a resounding no to the first one and depending on your preference, yes or no to the second. My father asked about igloos so during the 1999 Iditarod, locals built an "igloo" and I took pics, sent them to my dad and said yes, this is where I live. 😊 🤪

Ira Orton house in built 1904. Couldn't find the date on this photo but it's obviously from the '70s. Visited Nome in 2004 and photographed this house and some others from the turn of the 20th century. This house is on Front St. and wondering how it fared in the storm earlier this year that had a lot of coastal flooding.
