RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Living well above the Arctic Circle brings extreme weather and extreme daylight swings.

Utquiagvik, Alaska (formerly known as Barrow), spends part of the winter with no sun, known as “Polar Night.” The town goes more than 60 days between sunrises between November and February.
Now, it’s entering into a period known as “Midnight Sun,” where the town won’t see a sunset for more than 80 days, coming next on Aug. 2.
Surprisingly, Utquiagvik has a population of nearly 5,000 people willing to put up with the extremes.
In central North Carolina, we thankfully don’t have to deal with “Polar Night” or “Midnight Sun.”
Our region is currently seeing around 14 hours of daylight, with more and more through the Summer Solstice on June 21.
Then the days slowly start to get shorter until our least amount of daylight on the Winter Solstice. That comes on Dec. 21.
