Escape The Matanuska Wind January 10th, 2010

Categories: For Buyers

I thought I’d make a video today about the Matanuska Wind. This wind howls down the Matanuska River Valley in the winter. Usually we get 5-6 good wind storms a winter. These usually last several days each and there is no where to hide. Well, almost no where. The Butte area outside of Palmer usually does not get this wind and today was no different. The wind was strong everywhere EXCEPT between Clark-Wolverine Road and the Butte.

The video is 8:28 minutes long and gives you a good idea what one of our wind storms are like.

Here is a google map showing the locations mentioned on the video. The only places with no wind were Smith Road and Maud Road.

    Good video Marty,
    That just supports the reasons that we want to buy out in that area.
    I’m glad Maraley got to view it too.

    Marty, thank you for the video. I am from Wausau WI and my kids live in Wasilla AK. My son e-mailed me earlier today telling me about the wind. Now just by coincidence I was surfing Real Estate Tomato blogs site to compare to my blog and I click on your’s. Low and behold you ran a video about the wind. It gave me the feeling that I back up there. Again thank you Ark
