Tundra summer

In the Arctic there are only two main seasons. Timelapse shows how winter gives way directly to summer. The mixing of cold and warm air creates banks of fog and cloudy skies, making the Arctic one of the most overcast regions of the world. The summer sun melts the snow and ice of winter, and creates a landscape dotted with pools.
