Tuesday's high temperatures across Alaska and surrounding areas came in above normal across most of the state, according to a weather update. The exception was some interior valleys, where clear skies allowed cold air to stay trapped beneath a layer of warmer air aloft, keeping those spots cooler than surrounding regions. The temperature map gives residents a quick picture of an unusually mild day for much of the state.
Why now: Unseasonably warm temperatures across most of Alaska are drawing attention from weather watchers.
