It may be raining and hailing and lightning like a bitch in the Northeast right now, but save a prayer or two for our Last Frontier brethren in Anchorage, where it's currently a blazing 71 degrees.

And that's not even the worst of it: A 'smokin' hot' 73 degree high is expected tomorrow. Drink lots of fluids!

Channel 2's Weather Team writes: "I can hear it now...'73?...SMOKIN' HOT???! Oh, those silly Alaskan!' Fair enough...but when we mock some of you lower-48ers to no end for whining about 30 degrees, we'll call it even."

Touché.
