The great thing is going somewhere that's minus twenty when you're wearing soft contact lenses. They go all crunchy. It's never been so much fun blinking!

Over the weekend, two men froze to death when they tried to walk to a nearby farm after their car broke down. Three other men with them survived because they were wearing warmer clothes, investigators reported.

But the press office for Yakutia's governor said Tuesday that all households and businesses in the region have working central heating and access to backup power generators.

Residents of Yakutia are no strangers to cold weather and this week's cold spell was not even dominating local news headlines Tuesday.
So I guess they're used to it, well except the two who died .....
