Here lies the Atlantic tundra region, covered with snow for
eight to nine months of the year. Temperatures can rise to
quite high levels during the short summer. For much of the
summer, however, the weather can be changeable and
disturbed. Snow and frost may occur in any month.
Wind chill a combination of low
temperature and high wind- is a frequent,
and probably the most dangerous,
weather hazard in northern Canada.

With a subarctic climate, Yakutsk is the coldest city, though not the coldest
inhabited place, on Earth. Average monthly temperatures range from 19C
in July to 40C in January. The coldest temperatures ever recorded on the
planet outside Antarctica occurred in the basin of the Yana river to the
northeast of Yakutsk. Although winters are long and extremely cold,
summers are warm (though rather short), with daily maximum temperatures
occasionally exceeding 32C making the seasonal temperature differences
for the region among the greatest in the world. The climate is quite dry, with
maximum precipitation occurring in the summer months.
