If you're someone who's not a fan of cold weather, chances are you won't be taking any trips to the Russian city of Yakutsk anytime soon. The city is currently in the midst of an abnormally long period of harsh subzero cold that is considered unusual even for Siberia's standards.

The temperature in portions of the Yakutia region of eastern Russia, where Yakutsk is located, dropped below 40 degrees below zero Fahrenheit (40 degrees below zero Celsius) during the middle of December and hasn't climbed above that level since -- making this one of the longest stretches of subzero cold in at least 14 years, according to The Associated Press.

Outside of a brief "warmup" to around 24 below zero F (31 below zero C) for the first couple of days of January, the city of Yakutsk, located just south of the Arctic Circle, has recorded both high and low temperatures below 30 below zero F (34 below zero C) since Dec. 8, 2020.

Even colder air has settled into Delyankir, a small district located about 500 miles (800 km) to the northeast of Yakutsk. On Monday morning, Jan. 18, a low temperature of 73 below zero F (58.3 below zero C) was reported...

I read somewhere a while back that the infamous, "hockey stick," was at least in part, the result of the closure of weather monitoring stations in northern and eastern regions of the former Soviet Union as the USSR economy failed and shut down. With the weather data from Siberia no longer available, "researchers," simply stopped adding their data to their temperature calculations.

It would be like plotting a graph of global per capita income and then one day, deciding to stop using data from sub-Saharan Africa. People would be shocked by the sudden increase of global average income.

Global warming causes cold weather.

Think I’m ready for a job at The Weather Channel yet?

According to Professor Valentina Zharkova’s sunspot cycles the cold weather will last until 2053.
