It was warmer in Alert 82"30' N. earlier this morning than in the Okanagan. (Real estate will be booming there) :)

Good thing the Arctic isn't getting warmer. If it's above 0°C on Cape Columbia, the pole is melting. Fortunately, it's as cold as Kelowna, up there.

Well it's bound to be relatively warm at this time of year with 24 hour sunshine, but that will come to a sudden change in a month or so.

Alert is way, wwaaaaay up there. It is the northernmost settlement on the planet.

That is going to happen with 5 solid months of blazing sunshine, but you pay for it from October until February.
Maybe, it didn't used to get above zero? If it did, CFB Alert would have sunk into the thawed permafrost goo decades ago.
