Anchorage is cold all year round, barely peaking at 18 degrees Celsius in summer. Most travelers visit between June and August for clear blue skies, and to catch the flowers in bloom. Spring and Fall see a drop in temperatures and crowds, but can already start reaching into the negatives. Winter brings plenty of snow and with it, winter activities. December and January are the coldest months of the year, dipping down to -12 degrees Celcius at night. If you can bear the cold, the light shows are fantastic around Christmas time.
