Sounds good, but I'll bet it won't last long under Biden's admin .

Probably as cold as Pelosi! When it's warm down here in the Great Lakes, it's cold as ell up there. Though Seward is on the coast, so it should be warmer than the interior.

The weather in Seward is really nice this time of year, cold but not near as cold as the interior or even Anchorage for that matter. I'll bet that Steve H. jumps all over that

I think you are getting the city of seward confused with the seward peninsula. Take a look at a map then reassess your thoughts on the current weather.

The claims aren't in the city are they?

The city of Seward, Alaska is south of Anchorage. The Seward peninsula, where the 9.7 million acres are now open to claims is about 800 miles north of the city of Seward. Almost half of those 9.7 million acres is north of the Arctic circle.

Alaska is BIG.
