It's Too Darned Hot
We've been in the mid-80s for over a week, and that is supposed to continue for the foreseeable future. Since almost no one in Alaska has A/C, it's pretty miserable for us thick-blooded northern folk. Lots of fans running, and lots of iced tea.

Unhappy Faces
On people here in Anchorage, that is.
We've just seen the forecast for the next few days, and it's not good. You know how I brag about our moderate temps? How the average high in July is about 68 degrees?
Most of the weather-heads here are talking about 82 on Saturday, 85 on Sunday, and 90 on Monday. That's not good.
Not only do we have the thickened blood & acclimatization to a cool climate, but there's no air conditioning in most residences.
Why, you ask?
Because who puts A/C in a house where the average summer temperature is 68 degrees?
It's going to be a miserable few days, but could be worse. We don't have tornadoes or flooding. As long as there's a breeze, we'll get by. But there will be a lot of locals on Monday evening lying on the floor of their houses, with all 11 fans running.
Either that, or the entire population of Anchorage will jump into Cook Inlet & refuse to leave the water until the temps come down!
