(Eastern Siberia/Yakutia). Home to the "Pole of Cold." Winters can hit -60°C, while summers can actually be quite hot (+25°C). The temperature range here is the highest in the world.
This zone is dominated by permafrost and "polar nights." 2. Subarctic Climate (Субарктический) cool summers (up to +10°C).
Long, cold winters and short, cool summers (up to +10°C).
