Well it is obvious where all of MY snow has been shipped to. We've been very dry here with only snow flurries and no real accumulation. But apparently parts of Alaska have gotten so much snow they don't know what to do with it!

Alaska town tries to dig out from huge snow dump

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) -- Dozens of National Guard troops have arrived to help an Alaska fishing town dig out from massive snows that have collapsed roofs, trapped some people in homes, and triggered avalanches.

Cordova is used to snow, but not like this season's blanketing.

The Guard reported more than 18 feet of snow has fallen in the past weeks, although the National Weather Service did not immediately have a measurement.

"There's nowhere to go with the snow because it's piled up so high..."

The story continues with tales of building collapses, and other serious problems.

Its now wonder we haven't gotten any, the Alaskan's are hogging all of it!
