Reading the article, it seems that the major difference is that Fairbanks now has a national weather service meteorologist who will issue heat advisories. Fairbanks can experience temps of over 100 degrees F during the summer months and has for a long time. This is not to say that the averages aren't climbing and hot days are not more prevalent, but in this case it's just that high temps (86 degrees in the article) are given more attention and caution by the national service. This seems like a good thing overall in light of the changing climate.
