FAIRBANKS, Alaska, June 25 -- The University of Alaska issued the following news release:
My dad never liked the heat. On humid days in upstate New York, he'd ride out hot spells by sitting in his underwear in front of an electric fan. He got no relief on his only trip to Alaska, when two days of 90-degree June temperatures forced him to hunker down inside my small cabin.
Recent cool temperatures got me to thinking that I hadn't seen a 90-degree day in a fair chunk . . .
