bunduo Posted April 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2005 On Friday (April 29), the high temperature in Anchorage is supposed to 64 degrees and sunny. The high temperature in Fort Thomas, KY (Cincinnati) is supposed to be 61 and rainy. What am I doing living in this icebox? I'm moving to Anchorage where it's sunny and warm.

wrp96 Posted April 28, 2005 #3 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Before you move, I guess I should tell you about the January the temps were at -40. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie11 Posted April 28, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 28, 2005 What's a -40 degree day or two???? It just helps you appreciate the warm, sunny ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted April 29, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 29, 2005 That's why they made the permanent fund - so you can fly to Hawaii in February (or pay for your cruising habit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivian02 Posted April 29, 2005 #6 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I lived in Anchorage in the later 70's. I remeber our first year up there (1976) when the pussy willows blumed in February. It rained and it rained. I remember well because in Buffalo New York that year they had something like 200 inches of snow fall. Anchorage does have its seasons. 82 degrees and I remember that being a "heat wave". Stange things can happen. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted April 29, 2005 #7 Share Posted April 29, 2005 We had SNOW in Nebraska today. I couldn't believe it. It didn't accumulate but it was still snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted April 29, 2005 #8 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Anchorage does have its seasons. Strange things can happen. Tim I agree. While I was in high school, my school took a trip to the lower 48, Oregon I think, during April. In Anchorage we wore the shorts the week before and after the trip. While we were on the trip, we headed to the shopping malls to buy sweaters because it was only slightly above freezing and pouring rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mii Posted April 29, 2005 #9 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Heck Anchorage and my hometown were about the same degree and I live in sunny California. Go figure. But that could change in a heartbeat. Marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
