Asia’s cold spell is continuing to drop jaws, take names and fell records.
Remarkable lows have been logged in recent weeks/months across the likes of Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Northern China; now that freeze is both encasing north regions (Siberia) and also pushing unusually-far south, even touching the Indian Ocean.
On Thursday, remarkable lows of -26.2C (-15.2F) and -29C (-20.2F) were registered in Turkmenistan and Iran, respectively. With the cherry, according to preliminary data I have, taken by Uzbekistan, where two monthly lows have fallen: Nurata’s -29.2C (-20.6F) and Syr Daya’s -27.2C (-17F).
Central Asia’s cold is also stretching as far west as Europe, and as far east as Japan.
It is extending as far south as the Indian Ocean, too:
