Across the street from Ron’s garage, at Aurora Motors, there’s a four-week waiting list for service. A taxi cab takes a couple of hours or longer to arrive. The current wait for a tow truck in Fairbanks or a pipe thawer or a furnace repairman is four or five days. "Even if you leave your car running all night, it's only a matter of time before your heater burns up or you break a belt or something else screws up."

Inside the garage of Ron’s Service and Towing, Hugh Bishop, who’s in his early 20s and works there, was giving a physics lesson. "People who say that have obviously never been here." "The typical thing to say is, "Once you get 20 below, it doesn't make any difference, it's all the same.' "I've heard people who've experienced 10 or 20 below weather say that they think they know what it's like at 40 below," said Glenn Shaw, a physics professor at the University of Alaska here.

The current stretch of frigid weather (it's been warmer than minus 40 only once in the past 11 days, and then not by much) is being called the longest cold snap in a decade, possibly in several decades.
