how cold is it in the artic circle?

Answer 1

The weather in the winter is often well below 0°F. But the Arctic Ocean helps to keep things moderate along the coastal areas. In the summer the temperature is usually cool and is usually around 30° to 40°F. The ground is permanently frozen and during the summer the soil thaws only a few inches. It is often windy and the combination of wind and cold drops the chill factor far below the real temperature.

Answer 2

I used to live at the arctic circle (in northern Scandinavia). On a nice day in the summer it's 18-25 degrees C (65-80 deg F), sometimes warmer. In the winter all temperatures between 0 and -40 deg C are common (+30 to -40 deg F), although I would say that most winter days it's between -10 and -25 deg C (+15 to -15 dec F).

Answer 3

Depends where you are when. I was in Saariselka (about 250km north of the Arctic Circle, in north eastern Finland) just before Christmas and it was -18C when we arrived. Two days into the trip the temperature shot up to +1C. The locals were generally concerned at how warm it had been this winter, although there had been a short cold snap (-25C) in October. They also assured us that summer temperatures of +30C were not unusual.
