This brings very long, cold winters and foggy, cloudy summers, which have helped to add to the remoteness of the island. Spring thaw arrives much later than normal for a position straddling the <a href="/wiki/Arctic_Circle" title="Arctic Circle">Arctic Circle</a>: around early June at Iqaluit in the south-east but around early- to mid-July on the north coast where glaciers run right down to sea level. Snow, even heavy snow, can occur at any time of the year, although it is least likely in July and early August. Average annual temperatures at Iqaluit are around −9.5 °C (14.9 °F), compared with around 5 °C (41 °F) in <a href="/wiki/Reykjav%C3%ADk" title="Reykjavík">Reykjavík</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-81" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-81"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>maps 1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> which is at a similar latitude.<sup id="cite_ref-82" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-82"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>81<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Sea ice surrounds the island for most of the year and only disappears completely from the north coast for short, unpredictable periods from mid- to late June until the end of September.<sup id="cite_ref-83" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-83"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>82<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Most of Baffin Island lies north of the <a href="/wiki/Arctic_Circle" title="Arctic Circle">Arctic Circle</a>—all communities from Pangnirtung northwards have <a href="/wiki/Polar_night" title="Polar night">polar night</a> in winter and <a href="/wiki/Midnight_sun" title="Midnight sun">midnight sun</a> in summer.
