Could be very well possible. It's caused by earth's inclination. Check out over here what that is:

Answer 2

Yes, any part of Russia above the arctic circle remains daytime during Spring and Summer and remains night during Fall and Winter. Same thing happens in Canada, Alaska, Greenland, Norway, Sweden and Finland, which all have territory north of the arctic circle.

In the south pole, antarctica, same thing happens but the opposite. During our Spring, Summer it's always night, during our Fall, Winter, it's always day.

Answer 3

Not only in Russia, but No,e Alaska. By late December, there is no sun light. Check out the historic information at the web site below.

Answer 4

i think so. maybe higher up in russia because similar to alaska the way its positioned during a few months of the year it probly doesnt get dark. and than at the oppisite end of the year it probably doesnt get light

Answer 5

There are lots of places like that which are quite far north. In Russia, St. Petersburg is famous for its 'white nights.' There are many sites which contain information about this.

Answer 6

Yes. You're thinking of the Arctic circle. North of it, the sun never sets during summer, and never rises during winter. Obviously, it spans the earth, so it's not just in Russia.

Answer 7

yes... pretty much the north north part of the northern hemisphere (not sure bout the southern hemisphere) doesnt get dark in summer... in alaska it gets about as dark as right around sunset... sun goes just BARELY below horizon and then comes back up... its the coolest thing

Answer 8

yes. I think everything above the artic circle has 24 hours of daylight and everything below the antarctic circle.

Answer 9

yes in the artic sun does go down and come right back up. but you have 15 minuts of twilight

Answer 10

In the northern parts.
