Two ice surges, known to Alaska Natives as ivus, stunned residents who had never seen large blocks of ice rammed ashore."It just looked like a big old mountain of ice," said L.A. Leavitt, 19, who left his nightshift job at the city early Tuesday to check out the ridges.
Ivus are like frozen tsunamis and crash ashore violently. They have killed hunters and are among the Arctic's most feared natural phenomena.
This is why I live in Anchorage! Hang on........I am back.....I had to go turn up the thermostat. All cozy now.
You be careful up there with the Ivus ( sounds like something out of a horror movie...)
