Weather

From November to March, in Fairbanks below zero (Fahrenheit) temperatures are the rule rather than the exception. The temperatures stays within the range of -20 to -35 F most of the time, the range ideal for conducting cold weather testing operations.

Many car manufacturers, extreme cold clothing producers and cold climate construction businesses have been concerned with “global warming” climate change and start looking for locations that would provide negative temperatures for longer time.

Fairbanks, located close to the polar circle, is one of the best places in the world to conduct extreme weather testing. It is a place with the widest temperature range in the world.
