It depends on when right now is and what part of Alaska we're talking about. Alaska is so large it has a variety of climates, many in fact. Alaska is much like it's own continent or country, there is arctic tundra, rainforest, boreal forest, desert, etc. The temperature at any given time varies greatly depending on where you are in the state.

How long are the seasons in alaska?
Contrary to myth, Alaska really does have seasons: in fact, summer can be very beautiful and warm; temperatures can reach into the low 80s, and there is sunlight for nearly the entire day and night. (That is why Alaska is sometimes called the land of the midnight sun.) But compared to some states in the "lower 48," summer doesn't last very long-- it is generally about four to five weeks. Soon, after a brief autumn, it is winter. Alaska generally has very cold, long, and snowy winters, with temperatures remaining below zero for weeks at a time. (Note that the farther north you go, the more severe the winter; southern Alaska, in cities like Anchorage, has winters that are similar to Minneapolis or Chicago.) Also, in winter, Alaska only gets about one hour of sunlight, and sometimes there isn't any at all.
