Record Midsummer Cold in Russia; July 2019
Arctic air has plunged into all of transcontinental Russia this week; from east to west, north to south. In fact, average temperatures have been holding at least 8° C below average for vast swathes of the 17,125,200 km2 nation all month.
And, over the past few days, a large number of new all-time record-low temperatures were set in the Magadan region, located to the east of the country, in North-Eastern Yakutia (Sakha Republic).
