| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A strong Arctic High centered over the central Brooks Range helped to produce clear skies for several days. As a result, surface temperatures across northern Alaska continued to drop to well below zero. As a weak trough of low pressure over the northern Bering Strait moved slowly eastward toward the Baldwin Peninsula and Selawik Valley, a pressure gradient sufficent enough to cause winds of 20 to 35 mph developed. This, combined with the already fridgid temperatures, created wind chills as low as 65 below zero at Kotzebue and Selawik. |
