89* in Fairbanks
What the heck took all of my Eskimo clothes. Hot as heck here. Maybe cool off when the sun goes down. Ooh wait it doesn't go down. They even put a umbrella in my beer.

- It got up to 72 one year in Wawa, Ontario. The locals were on the verge of heat stroke.
Said it hadn't been that hot in however long. - We are in Fairbanks as well. Very pleasant Sat evening in Pioneer Park.
- Some comments:
- No. 1 Son is on the Richardson fire; as noted, that fire is in a series of dried-out black spruce bogs.....acres and acres of natures fireworks.
- Fairbanks is historically warm in the summers: without referencing official records, relatively frequent 80 - 100 degree days are not outside the realm of memory.
- Jet stream impacts Los Anchorage for good and bad and it (Jet stream) doesn't reach Fairbanks: 100 above to 60 below has happened in Fairbanks and harking back to 30 years ago, IIRC, buildings and facilities in Fairbanks had to be designed for -70 winter temps.....both of the Fairbanks markers are way extreme (I suspect outside of either memory or recorded temps) for Anchorage.
