Global cooling! Temperatures plummeted to minus 56 degrees Celsius (minus 69 degrees Fahrenheit) on Monday and Tuesday, in the Sakha Republic, located in Siberia—One of the coldest inhabited areas on Earth

Just over 110 years ago, an unofficial temperature of 57.6 degrees C—(134 degrees F) was recorded in Furnace Creek, Death Valley, California. Recently as the planet warms other countries are threatening that unofficial record. However, climate change is not just about warming temperatures around the world, as parts of Siberia proved in the last couple of days.

Temperatures plummeted to minus 56 degrees Celsius (minus 69 degrees Fahrenheit) on Monday and Tuesday, in the Sakha Republic, located in Siberia and known as one of the coldest inhabited areas on Earth. In the city of Yakutsk, one of the world's coldest cities, temperatures fell below minus 50 C, according to the region's weather stations.

According to Reuters, Yakutsk, which lies some 5,000 km (3,100 miles) east of Moscow, the temperature was around minus 44 C to minus 47 C. Temperatures of minus 50 C have become less common in recent years because of climate change, with permafrost showing increasing signs of thawing. In the Russian capital, some of the biggest snowfalls ever seen on Dec. 3 left swathes of Moscow blanketed in drifts of more than 35 cm of snow in just one day.

By the way, the coldest temp ever recorded here on earth is −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F) on the Antarctic in July 1983. . .

Wow, that is really cold stuff! How can anyone live through that!? Well it's good follow up to your previous posts Gary.

I just read a weather blog article on my local NBC news that said; winter cold snaps are shrinking due to climate change. Someone should tell quartermaster this, haha!
The survey was globally and is probably a clue to what's to come because even geoengineering can not stop the warming of earth.
The shrinking cold snaps were defined as shorter durations, i.e. they don't last more then a couple days anymore. Well that's because for one thing, the cold snaps are fake man made cool downs and so the chems used to cause the cold stuff wear off fast. ...didn't I just say this in comments!? After 2 or 3 days temps rebound right back up to hot again. Yes, that's true.
The bad news is it will probably cause the weather makers to double down on their poison cool down treatments, so expect more then one cold snap per week now. For us here in SWFL, that is already the case. At least 2 cold fronts a week we see in winter months.
With all the seismic activity going on that is an indication of the warming getting worse because the "hoax" of climate change is that it's all from carbons of fossil fuels, the rest is no hoax. The warming is coming from under our feet, heat rises is a fact.
Oh and climate change is the word phrase used for geoengineering. When you see "climate change" replace it with geoengineering and see how nicely it fits. We live in a fake world, fake because man is so full of himself that he actually thinks he can control the planet and tweak everything in the environment better then God created it to be. Big mistake!

"some of the biggest snowfalls ever seen on Dec. 3 left swathes of Moscow blanketed in drifts of more than 35 cm of snow in just one day."

35cm isn't a big snowfall, but rather pretty common. 35cm is just under 14". Yes, the snowplows will be briefly occupied, but many locations in the USA see comparable snowfalls every winter. Especially because that 35cm was the measure of the DRIFTS rather than the average blanketing coverage.

Perhaps the author meant to write 35m? That would indeed be noteworthy. Buffalo, NY, northern Minnesota, Vail, Colorado and several other places get 35cm snowdrifts every winter.

Nope, 35cm it is, 35m would be rather incredible. Yes, (yawn). . . Parts of the US do get 35cm snowdrifts every winter, especially Buffalow. However, nowhere, not even in the mighty US does a city temperature drop to minus 56 degrees Celsius (minus 69 degrees Fahrenheit), Canada maybe!
