Greenland's climate is a tundra climate (Köppen ET) on and near the coasts and an ice cap climate (Köppen EF) in inland areas. It ...
Ilulissat is one of the driest settlements in Greenland, receiving only 271 millimetres or 10.67 inches of precipitation. Ilulissat is also one of the sunniest settlements in Greenland, especially during summer. Interestingly, March is the coldest month in Ilulissat despite similar locations experiencing February as the coldest month of the year.
Coldest summer (month of July in the Northern Hemisphere): −33 °C (−27.4 °F); Summit Camp, Greenland on 4 July 2017. [ 292 ] Lowest temperature in the Northern Hemisphere : −69.6 °C (−93.3 °F); Greenland Ice Sheet , Greenland on 22 December 1991.
New research suggests the Greenland ice sheet is on track to cross a critical threshold that could cause runaway melting, but that it’s also possible the threshold will be crossed temporarily, ...
In Denmark, January temperatures average between −2 °C (28 °F) and 4 °C (39 °F). [2] Denmark's coldest month, however, is February, when the mean temperature is 0 °C (32 °F). [3] The number of hours of sunlight per day does increase during the month of February for Denmark, where they get seven to eight hours a day. [4]
Recent years show the atmosphere can deliver the coldest air sooner or later than the average: A bitterly cold outbreak in early March 2019 was the coldest of the season in Great Falls, Montana ...
If you spent much of last month shivering in the United States, you were not alone. A preliminary look at temperature data shows that the U.S. is likely to have experienced its coldest January ...
1816 is known as the Year Without a Summer because of severe climate abnormalities that caused average global temperatures to decrease by 0.4–0.7 °C (0.7–1 °F). [1] Summer temperatures in Europe were the coldest of any on record between 1766 and 2000, [ 2 ] resulting in crop failures and major food shortages across the Northern Hemisphere .
