[Regnum] In the Moscow region on the night of January 21, the temperature dropped to -25 degrees, said leading specialist of the Phobos weather center Evgeny Tishkovets.

Forecaster: 25-degree frosts hit places in the Moscow region last night
“In some places, 25-degree frosts hit the Moscow region,” he wrote on the Telegram channel.

According to him, it was coldest in Melikhovo - -20.1, Mozhaisk - -20.2, Podmoskovny - -20.3, Solnechnogorsk - -21.1, Novo-Ierusalim - -21.8, Mikhailovsky - -22, 8, Taldome - -22.9, Klin - -25.0.

At the base Moscow weather station VDNKh the temperature dropped to -15.8, in Tushino - -18.4, Strogino - -15.4, in Balchug - -11.1, which is 3-5 degrees below the January climate norm.

As Regnum reported, last week in Moscow there were frosts of up to 30 degrees. The Ministry of Emergency Situations urged residents to dress warmly, cover their cheeks, ears, nose, and also not leave their wrists, fingers and ankles exposed.

The Hydrometeorological Center explained that “temperature swings” are a normal phenomenon for the winter period. The jump from thaw to frost occurs due to sunny conditions.
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your perspective) Ukrainian fighters are as prepared for General Winter as the Russians are. No Napoleonic retreat to be anticipated here.

#4  Meh, was that cold all during the Martin Luther King weekend here. Difference is, we have supported infrastructure through taxed income from capitalism. So suck it commies.

#3  They're getting better. In Chechnya in 1995 they lost three times that many in one night.
