Storm Stronger Than Sandy Heads for #Alaska, Will Chill Much of U.S. - The remnants of a Pacific typhoon will pound Alaska with enough force to produce 50-foot waves, then shove across two-thirds of the Lower 48 and drive temperatures to wintry levels next week. “It’s early in the season, but we are poised for a pure #Arctic outbreak,” said Tom Niziol, a winter weather specialist for The Weather Channel. Forecasters said that the storm, as it approaches the Aleutian Islands this weekend, could be more intense than Superstorm Sandy when it swamped the Northeast two years ago. Weather watchers in Alaska — and Twitter — have labeled the storm the Bering Bomb.
