The problem is that
the city-names are one extra level deep with the state-name coming
in-between. I wondered whether I should build the hash differently.

Probably. This is one idea:

my %hash = (
'San Jose' => {
state => 'Calif',
max_temp => 84,
},
'San Fran' => {
state => 'Calif',
max_temp => 94,
},
);
