Barrow is one of Alaska's northernmost cities and during winter it gets complete darkness for two month out of the year. During the summer, the sun doesn't completely set in Barrow from early May until the end of July.

8 hours 49 minutes of daylight.



8 hours 32 minutes daylight.


Our dawn is 45 minutes later than yours by the clock.

We get right the same amount as Presque Isle, ME. Friend of ours was from there and we figured it out one year because he claimed Maine was further north than Washington.

Many US maps are tilted so latitude can get confusing. Minnesota has the furthest north point in the contiguous US if I remember correctly. Yes I pulled up a map.

I don't know how relevant it is, but... those latitude markings are not curved to match the decreasing radius of the earth.

So I was on I57, minding my own business. When you know those signs that are over the lanes of the interstate. Said COLD? Put that mask on. I said to myself... did I just see that? seriously?
