Thanks to ABC 33/40 Skywatcher Kristie Calvin in North Pole Alaska for this video… she writes:

“Hi James:

I hope you are doing well! Here in North Pole, we have had some moderating in temperatures. We actually go above zero for an hour or so this weekend! While I know that seems cold, it really was not that bad. In fact, I only wore a light fleece when going out!

On Saturday morning, our low was 17 below zero. Mike and I decided to do a quick video of what happens to a boiling cup of water when you throw it into the 17 below zero air. While this works best when it’s 30 below, you can see the results. ”
