Remember reduce the electrical output in mass by turning off the nuclear reactors, and shut down coal production and use for coal powered electrical geneartors -- one wonders how good of a full public grid Russia has for natural gas fired electricity power plants? [/quote] today's temps in russia: as low as -48 F [/quote] http://rt.com/news/russia-freeze-cold-temperature-379/ -50 C = -58 f [/quote] No matter how you cut it, or where you are from, anything colder than -40C is cold... and -50C is very cold! We don't mind going out for events as long as it's warmer than -20C... anything colder than -20C is just too cold to go out in with any kind of comfort. [/quote]
Original Message
"Abnormally low winter temperatures in Russia continue to claim more and more lives. Twenty-one people froze to death in only one day; 147 others were hospitalized with frostbite. The cold weather in central Russia is not going to get any warmer soon. On December 19, the cold has reached St. Petersburg, where temperatures fell below -20 degrees Centigrade. It is 30 degrees below zero in the Ivanovo region, -22C in the Kaluga region, and -25 in Tver. In Moscow, for example, the cold snap came on December 15 and will last until next Wednesday, forecasters say. At the weekend, night temperatures will drop to 26 degrees below zero Centigrade."
