Yakutsk records January averages near −38°C and lows past −60°C, which makes it the coldest major city on Earth. It is built on permafrost, so buildings stand on piles driven deep enough that their heat cannot melt the ground under them.
The clock: Yakutsk keeps UTC+9. Its annual temperature range, from about −64°C to +38°C, is the widest of any major city in the world.
Yakutsk lies at 129.7°E. Its time zone, UTC+9, is built around the 135°E meridian. The 5.3° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 21 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:21 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+9 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 19h 46m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 5h 8m. The swing between them is 14h 38m. Close to the Arctic or Antarctic circle, the year swings hard between long light and long dark.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Yakutsk the sun comes up earliest on 20 June at 02:29, while the latest sunset waits until 24 June at 22:16.
