FAIRBANKS — Just because it hit 70 degrees in Fairbanks on Tuesday for the first time this year doesn’t mean summer is officially here.

“I’m not going to say that,” meteorologist Cory Bogel at the National Weather Service in Fairbanks said. “Two weeks from now it might be raining and 45 degrees.”

Even so, it felt good, evidenced by the number of boats on the Chena River and amount of skin showing in Alaska’s second-largest city.

Officially, the high temperature at Fairbanks International Airport on Tuesday was 73 degrees, which fell shy of the record of 77 in 1977.

It was the first time in 249 days — since Sept. 10 — that residents in Alaska’s second-largest city have enjoyed such balmy weather.

Gary and Meg Miller took advantage of the nice weather by taking their 17 1/2-foot Woolridge boat for a ride in the Chena River.

“We went down to the Tanana (River) and came back up,” Gary Miller said as he trailered the boat at Graehl Landing. “We stopped at Pike’s (Landing) for something to eat. It’s a nice day.”
