Awesome, thanks! I didn't see this post earlier. So it appears that Fort Yukon is almost certainly the record holder for Alaska, BUT in 1917 they were using a mercury thermometer to record maximum temperatures, so they actually only recorded 5 of 31 days in December of that year on account of the other 26 having daily highs below the freezing point of mercury (which is 4 more than Dawson City had)!

So given the lack of data, Eagle, Alaska, holds the official record, but in reality, Fort Yukon was colder.

The actual value is different

average value is 30.12 F

I think you mean 1977. February 1979 was cold, January not so much.

Thanks. As you can see January 1977 was plenty cold too. How was February 1979? That was a frigid month in the NYC area.
