10 hours per day sounds like a crazy amount of time to use a light.
I think the Alaska point is close. Yet even in (for example) southern Canada, the sun just doesn't get high over the horizon in winter. So you have 7 hour days, but those days are mostly dim and dark.
Even without clouds.

Sounds depressing. That's how I feel when days are like that

I'm in Oregon, just about on the 45th parallel. Not nearly as far north as some people, but winters can be pretty hard light-wise, and SAD is a bitch. I really should move to Arizona or Mexico in the winter.
On the other hand, summers are spectacular.
10 hours per day sounds like a crazy amount of time to use a light. I think we use some lights in our house maybe 4 hours per day on average max. Maybe I just have a lot of windows and don't live in Alaska in the winter.
