The amount of snowfall in the Arctic can vary widely depending on location, but on average, around 6-12 inches of snow can fall per year in some Arctic regions. However, in other areas, such as parts of Greenland and northern Canada, much higher snowfall totals can occur, with some areas receiving several feet of snow annually.
Snow can be present on Mount Wellington during the winter months, typically from June to August. Snowfall is not guaranteed every year.
