Climate

Hooper Bay is located within the polar climate zone (Köppen ET), because the hottest month is only 49.1 °F (9.5 °C). It is atypical of polar climates in having winters sufficiently moderated by the sea that permafrost is merely sporadic, and in seeing heavy late summer rainfall more typical of subpolar oceanic climates. The substantial maritime moderation, however, means snowfall is heavy, exceeding or approaching 4 inches or 0.10 metres for eight months of the year
