uhm... I would probably say.. no, not really... it just seems to happen.. some of it depends on the winds.. i think we're starting to blame the el ninos again or so i read somewhere...
this year is just crazy.. last summer it was all rain.. this year we've had volcanos, earthquakes, freak hot waves, not a lot of rain, but we've had a few thunderstorms (you almost never get actual thunderstorms up here for some reason, but this summer, we've had several...) and now lots of wild fires....
it's alaska... something will change eventually and 2 weeks from now we'll all be wet and cold again.. who knows what's going on... heh..
