The Greenland Weather has great varieties due to the large size of the country. Greenland is considered to be the sixth largest island on Earth. Greenland climatic condition is largely influenced by the presence of ice throughout the year. Greenland Weather is characterized by Arctic climate. According to the climate graph in Greenland summers are comparatively mild and bright; conversely winters are freezing and dark especially in the areas protected from the constant wind flow. Along the coast, heavy snowfall is observed. The people living in the northern and the interior part of the country truly enjoy the moderate Arctic weather.

About 80% of the island is beneath a thick ice sheet that in places thickens up to 4 ft and above. The western coast of the country has a comparatively warmer climate. 6 ° C is the average summer temperature .

In few places at times temperature increases. For example the summer temperature in Nuuk, a city located at the western coast, rises up to 10 ° C. Weather Greenland's eastern regions are much colder than the western coast. Even in summer frozen temperature often occurs. Heavy rainfall takes place in every three days in the southern part of the country. The central part of Greenland summer temperature hardly reaches above the freezing line. The winter temperature varies from -20 ° C to -60 ° C.

Greenland is considered as the perfect environment for all kind of meteorological and climatic studies and researches. The condition and effect of global warming is analyzed in and from Greenland by carefully monitoring the movements of the large sheets of ice that covers most of the land. Ice samples are also used for analyzing the climatic conditions thousands of years ago.
