Fogged In
Weather has delayed my travel in Iqaluit. At the airport yesterday, the message board informing passengers of the flight cancellation read, "Flight 822 cancelled due to bad weather on both ends." At least it was consistent. I spent part of last night talking to the math and science curriculum coordinator for Nunavut. He said a person gets used to the weather causing changes in plans. They have a country wide professional development week later in the school year with meetings and trainings scheduled in different locations and he said that inevitably some weather event sends them scrambling to alter schedules and accomodate cancelled flights. To my non-pilot eye things do not look much better this morning but I am hopeful things will clear enough for me to get to Iglulik today.

Welcome to the real last frontier on Earth...the North.
Please tell us why you are here in Nunavut. Visiting? Researching?

I am environmental studies teacher from the south (MN), up here to connect with schools. Our school is partnering with a dog sled expedition that will travel across Baffin Island next spring, using education and technology to call attention to the cultural impacts of climate change and to call for energy policy and individual behavioral changes, particularly in the south, to stem this tide.
