Anchorage is a city in Alaska. Anchorage is further from the pole than the other towns further north. It is also closer to the equator. The closer to the equator, the warmer the area is. Anchorage and New York have a pretty good distance between them latitude-wise, but longitude-wise they're not too far apart.

What is Alaska's average temperature in fall?
Depends on where in alaska you are. Average in Anchorage I would say is 65-70 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer but the lack of wind makes it feel like an 80 in a normal place with maybe 5-10 mph wind. It may get up to 90-98 degrees on a hot day in anchorage once a year. In fairbanks and interior Alaska howevee the temperature is much less moderate. In the summer it can get well over 100 but I'm not sure of an average. In the winter it will drop much further than anchorage as well. Anchorage bottoming at -30 and fairbanks still getting lower past -40.
