Temperatures have been above average across Alaska every day since April 25.
None of the nearly 300 weather stations scattered about Alaska have recorded a temperature below freezing since June 28, said Brian Brettschneider, a climatologist and research associate at the International Arctic Research Center.
It's the longest such streak in at least 100 years.
At Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, the temperature hit 90 degrees on Independence Day for the first time on record. It comes as no surprise that the Last Frontier is just a day away from rounding out not only their warmest July, but their warmest month on record.
