Meteorologists say the country is experiencing one of its coldest winters in decades.In the Far East region of Magadan, 180 miles 300 km of roads remain blocked by heavy snow. Plows and machines can not reach those roads to clear them.
In some places, snow is as much as five meters 16½ ft deep.In the Tyva region of Siberia where temperatures have been -40 C for several days, it is so cold that many heating pipes have frozen and thousands of people have been evacuated from their homes.
I guess good news global warming, cliimate change er disruption is over. Must be all those windmills and solar panels that saved us.
In reality there is climate change and it is changing for the worse. Colder and probably drier in many parts of the world. We are also due for a good old fashioned Bond event and we are due for another glacial period as well. Gonna be hard selling global warming to the Ruskies now.
