Photo: June 5 brings mini heat wave to Iqaluit

Angela Coulombe watches her sons Kyliam (left) and Ryder (right) climb rocks on sunny June 5 in Iqaluit. The high was predicted to reach 15 C degrees in Nunavut’s capital — beating the previous high temperature of 11.1 C set in 1997, and much higher than the daily high of -7.8 C for June 5 in 1972. Today’s record-breaker means the high temperature is about 10 degrees above normal for this time of year. (PHOTO BY DAVID MURPHY)
