  1. Now, sunshine is 7:25, sunset 8:29. Yesterday, it was like summer time up here with high of 18.6C. In the territory we got between 21 and 22 in Dawson, Mayo and Carmacks all located north than I. Today should be a transition one with risk of showers, even if now we have 8.6C and clear sky. For the upcoming days, back to sunny conditions in a cooler air. What you wrote for Barrow is amazing. Even here we only got 54 days between our last and first frost (My link). Have a great day !

  10. Thank you ! I am stupid because I noticed it on surface maps.... To answer your question, I wanted to settle in Canada.

  23. Yes Patrick, did not know we could have this at this place. NIUmetGF, -45C for the picture ! About the waves, here in Yukon you are quite protected from very bad weather of the Gulf. It however keeps our weather cloudy and windy here in Whitehorse ! Today was a sunny day, but clouds are winning the fight and we will soon get back to cool and wet conditions. Today's temperature of -1.5/+16.6. Tomorrow I will do a small summary of August 2011's conditions. That's it for now !

  25. Hi everybody, 4/18.7 and 0.6 mm of rain. After a short shower this morning around 6:00, and a magic sunrise with red colored clouds, the day was mainly sunny. I really enjoyed ! Now, there is a risk of shower, but it is not bad enough to prevent me from walking the dogs ! Tomorrow morning, we may have our third frost if the wind is calm during the night. From Wednesday night to the end of this week, weather should be cool with distant precipitations. The like summer break was too short. To finish my post, I saw two foxes at different places in downtown Whitehorse, they were crossing the streets with people and cars moving around ! Funny...
