Most areas in the Bristol Bay region saw the lowest temperatures of the winter (to date) on Wednesday. Low temperatures included -8F (-22.2C) at Togiak, -14F (-25,6C) at King Salmon and a brisk -22F (-30C) at Aleknagik. There are more clouds around Thursday morning so most places are not as cold, but one exception is Dillingham, which has been down to -14F (-25.6C) as of 8am. @RichThompsonAK @Climatologist49
