Summer temperatures in the Arctic remain cool, fluttering around zero in many places, from June through September. In fact, Arctic residents must frequently heat their homes all year long. Neighbourhoods near the sea tend to remain close to 0°C throughout the summer, but inland areas, particularly in the south, regularly reach 7°C–13°C, and hardly as much as 20°C. One reason for the opposition is that the sea ice, which gradually melts, consumes much of the sun's energy, giving little to heat the air over it.
Hope this helped! :)
