Anecdotes about various climates in the world

In addition to the Antarctic and Arctic, there are some regions with extreme climate in the world.

"Cold Pole": The house is built on a stake.

Eul Miyakon, a small town in the northeast of Siberia, is known as the coldest human settlement on earth, with the lowest temperature of -7 1 Celsius in winter. The houses in the whole town are built on the permafrost of hard rocks. People are forbidden to wear glasses when they go out, because they will stick to the skin after freezing and it is difficult to take them off.

Oymyakon is the coldest place in the world.

The original intention of Siberia is "sleeping land", which is a vast land of130,000 square kilometers, accounting for almost 80% of Russia's land area. The center of this cold wasteland, the town of Miakan in Yule, is considered to be the coldest human settlement on earth by textual research. The lowest temperature here once reached -7 1 celsius. It is said that many people were forced to amputate their limbs because of severe frostbite, which led to a shortage of narcotic drugs in local hospitals.

The town of Miakan in Yule is located in a canyon between two mountains. This beautiful valley fully shows the extreme cold controlled by high pressure in Siberia. The cold wind can't blow off the snowflakes on the tree. The sky is high, the blue is crystal clear, and the thin white fog is around. The local residents' wooden houses were built on this frozen soil, and the hot air in the house gradually softened the frozen soil, so the houses on the whole street looked patchwork.

Here, the equipment you carry is useless here; The glasses froze, the pen froze, the micro weather station could not work at all, and the thick down jacket was as hard to keep out the cold as a piece of paper. You must rearm yourself like a local: put on a mink suit, a sheepskin coat, a raccoon hat and reindeer boots.

At school, children play outdoors all winter, and the school will not close unless the temperature is below MINUS 60 degrees Celsius. Incredibly, there is a winter swimming club in the coldest place in the world. Breaking the ice half a meter thick and jumping into the biting ice water, the taste is really indescribable. In less than a minute, the skin seems to grow on others, and the brain is blank, like a stroke.

In order to survive in this extremely cold environment, you must eat a lot of fat and protein to keep your body running. The most common foods eaten by local people are roasted horse meat and frozen raw horse liver. Three meals a day and dinner are all meat. In a few days, you will feel as if there is a fierce horse galloping in your body. There is a special natural phenomenon in this area. The higher the altitude, the higher the temperature, which seems to be inconsistent with a basic principle of atmospheric physics. Even experienced meteorologists find it difficult to give an accurate explanation.

In this extremely cold place, hunting activities become very simple, just set traps in places where mammals haunt, without crouching down to observe. The temperature here is much lower than the freezing room temperature of domestic refrigerator. Trapped animals will not thaw for several months, and the natural preservation effect is very ideal. Besides, many unusual things will happen in the cold life: fishing under the ice, deer pulling sleds, thawing horses … If you want to experience it, you must be prepared. You can't spend the winter there in your usual clothes.
