The weather in North Point

In Komi, Russia and Volkuta, Russia, the local temperature is as low as MINUS 50 degrees, and it is covered with thick snow and ice.

Because it is close to the Arctic Circle, the local climate is extreme. It's very cold. It doesn't snow for only three months every year. The rest of the time was spent in the ice and snow. It seems that the world in the novel has moved to real life. But extreme cold is not as beautiful as imagined.

It is reported that Volkuta has established a residential area in 193 1. After the completion of World War II railway, it rose rapidly with the development of coal mining industry. However, due to the closure of the local steel industry, people living along the coal mine moved away. Public transportation between towns in the city has also stopped due to extreme weather, and only a few families remain here, but most of them have moved outside the Arctic Circle. ?

Volkuta Volkuta Coal Mine City is located in the northeast corner of Komi Autonomous Region, Russia, and it is 0/60 km south of the Arctic Circle. It doesn't snow for only three months every year.

The residential area was established in 193 1 year. After the completion of World War II, the railway rose rapidly with the development of coal mining industry and became the administrative center and main coal mining center of Bochaola coal mine in Russia. 1943 was established.

There are coal machinery repair, wood processing, building materials industry, as well as Bochaola Coalfield Coal Science Research Institute.

Although it is close to the Arctic Circle, the generous salary and treatment have attracted a large number of immigrants from Asia and Eastern Europe to move here. Therefore, Volkuta is a blend of different national cultures and is known as the capital of the world.

However, when the coal resources were limited and the coal in Volkuta was exhausted, the Russian government resettled these residents in the southern region.

After all the residents moved away, the once prosperous town of Volkuta gradually became an abandoned wasteland, which is considered to be one of the fastest disappearing human settlements in the world. ?

Some residents will migrate with the seasons, and when it gets warmer in summer, some residents will return to work in Volkuta; But in winter, it's MINUS 50 degrees here? The temperature in C makes Volkuta the coldest settlement in Europe, and many people are discouraged. ?

The furniture in the room is neatly arranged, the abandoned cars in the snow in the parking lot, and all the frozen things are like frozen time, telling the stories of people who have come and left in a hurry. It's only been a few years, and everyone is buzzing and empty!

Day after day, year after year, with the invasion and burial of snow, this small town may eventually be covered by time. It is said that the name Volkuta is expressed in the local language? Where there are many bears. Maybe it will be worthy of the name in a few years!
