Barrow, Alaska - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Iqaluit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

They are both extremely cold but Barrow has the polar night while in Iqaluit the sun rises for a few hours.
Which do you think is worse?

Not a significant difference between the two, but I'd say Barrow is slightly worse due to the polar night. I've experienced colder Christmases than either of those averages, it's the lack of sun that makes these two particularly bad at that time of the year.

no difference. but i'd prefer the polar night. it still has 3 hours of civil twilight, so not completly dark.

What do you mean "worse?" They're both great at Christmas. Perfect dark, cold winters.
