| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A significant cold snap developed across interior Alaska on December 27th and continued into January. A cold upper level low across Siberia moved into northern Alaska on December 26th, and remained in place through the end of the month. Although no new temperature records were established, it brought the first widespread significant cold to interior Alaska. Temperatures at the Fairbanks International Airport dropped to 40 below on the 28th, and reached a low of 43 degrees on the 31st. The cold temperatures produced significant ice fog in Fairbanks, and the visibilities were frequently reduced to 1/4 mile or less in Fairbanks on New Year's Eve. The coldest temperatures were observed on the Yukon Flats, where temperatures dropped into the 50s below on New Year's Eve.||Here are some of the coldest temperatures that were observed through December 31st:||Zone 218: |Arctic Village: 49 below||Zone 219: |Bettles: 45 below||Zone 220: |Chalkyitsik: 58 below|Beaver Creek: 57 below|Circle Hot Springs: 55 below|Fort Yukon: 54 below|Central: 50 below||Zone 221: |Nenana: 44 below||Zone 222: |North Pole KJNP: 55 below|Fairbanks International Airport: 43 below||Zone 223: |Delta Junction: 44 below||Zone 224: |O'Brien Creek: 57 below|Tok: 52 below|Chicken: 52 below|Eagle: 50 below|Northway: 49 below||Zone 225: |Denali Park HQ: 34 below||Zone 226: |Dry Creek: 50 below|Chisana: 47 below||All of these low temperatures were observed on either December 30th or the 31st. |
