Valdez averages over 300 inches of snow every year on the southern coast of Alaska, due to its location near a nearly-constant source of moisture during the winter months. However, the temperature is often near freezing when it snows, and it does rain in the winter as well. In other words, it is not terribly cold considering it's in Alaska.
Valdez on the southern coast averages about 300 inches annually.

∙ 13y agoThe coldest inhabitated place on Earth is small town in Sashka republic,Russia called Oymyacon.That is because town is located on Cherscoga mountain range in Siberia on 1649m above Earth,and because of the cold Siberian air masses.Temperatures can often reach -78 degrees.It has a permafrost deep 1438m.Summers are usually about 20 deegres and the highest temperature ever was 38 degrees.So Oymyacon has an extremly subarctic climate.Winters last 6-9 months.Summers are short but fresh.

How does Alaska deal with snow?
Alaska deals with snow quite well, thank you. Mainly by leaving it alone. If it is in the way (blocking a door, on the steps) it gets shoveled off. Major roads get plowed, side roads- it gets packed down and stays there. For most of the winter it is too cold for snow to melt, even with salt added to it. You learn to drive on snow, and sometimes use snow mobiles, skis or snowshoes.
