I grew up there! The weather is a lot different than Anchorage. Anchorage is colder. Whittier gets a TON more precipitation. The Army actually built Whittier during WWII because it was a good deepwater port (ironically, Anchorage has huge tides that make it a horrible anchorage) that was always overcast, making it hard, they thought, for the Japanese to bomb.
