Because Alaska is closer to the North Pole, and because the higher the elevation, the colder it is, there is snow on the mountain peaks even during the summer. I used to live in Alaska, so I know a little bit about it.
The high temperatures in Alaska can vary depending on the region and time of year. In the summer, temperatures can reach into the 70s and 80s Fahrenheit in some parts of the state. However, Alaska is known for its cooler climate overall, with average high temperatures ranging from the 50s to 70s Fahrenheit during the summer months.
In Alaska, the longest day occurs on or around June 21st, known as the summer solstice, when the sun is up for about 22 hours. Conversely, the longest night happens on or around December 21st, known as the winter solstice, when the sun may be up for only a few hours in some parts of Alaska.
Alaska's temperatures can reach into the 90s°F (32-37°C) in some areas during the summer months. The highest recorded temperature in Alaska was 100°F (38°C) in 1915. However, these extreme temperatures are rare, and the state generally experiences milder summers compared to other parts of the United States.
Yes. But it's not only in Alaska. The sun will remain over the horizon for all of the Earth that's north of the Arctic Circle for a few summer weeks. It's the flip side of not having any sun at all for a period of winter. Likewise on the Southern hemisphere, Everything South of the Antarctic circle will have continuous sun for a few weeks during their summer.
