It all depends on the time of year. If you're right exactly on the Arctic Circle, then: -- December 21: sun is down exactly 24 hours -- March 21: sun is up 12 hours, down 12 hours -- June 21: sun is up exactly 24 hours -- September 21: sun is up 12 hours, down 12 hours -- December 21: sun is down exactly 24 hours
Above the arctic circle.
That's the summer solstice, when areas north of the Arctic Circle will have 24 hours of daylight.
24 hours of daylight.
In the northern hemisphere, locations above the Arctic Circle (66.5 degrees north latitude) experience 24 hours of daylight during summer solstice. This phenomenon is known as the midnight sun, where the sun does not set for several weeks around the summer solstice.
If you experience 24 hours of daylight in the summer, you would be located in regions north of the Arctic Circle or south of the Antarctic Circle. This phenomenon is known as the midnight sun, where the sun remains visible for the entire 24 hours due to the tilt of the Earth's axis.
Depends on the location. North of the Arctic Circle, December clocks in with "zero" hours of daylight, while on Antarctica, June is the darkest month.
Down to zero above the arctic circle. The more closer to summer, the more hours of daylight. Moderator: This is a true answer, so don't delete AGAIN.
Barrow, Alaska experiences the longest daylight hours in the state due to its location above the Arctic Circle. During the summer months, the sun does not set for several weeks, leading to continuous daylight.
North of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic one, the periods of daylight and darkness both vary from zero to six months, during the course of a year.
June 21-22 is the summer solstice in the Arctic Circle. During this time, the sun does not set, leading to a phenomenon known as the midnight sun where there is continuous daylight for 24 hours. This is a unique experience for visitors to the Arctic Circle.
Reykjavik, Iceland experiences the greatest variation in daylight hours during the year due to its location near the Arctic Circle. In summer, Reykjavik can have almost 24 hours of daylight known as the Midnight Sun, while in winter it can have only a few hours of daylight.
The Arctic region, anywhere north of the Arctic Circle (approx. latitude 66° 34' N), has the greatest number of daylight hours when it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere. The Antarctic (including almost all of Antarctica), south of the Antarctic Circle (approx. latitude 66° 34' S), has the greatest number of daylight hours when it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
