Sayaka Mori @sayakasofiamori Siberia's #Oymyakon had -57.2C (-71F) on Monday due to a significantly developed Siberian High. Its central #pressure now is 1076hPa. Though it is lower than the world's highest pressure of 1083.8hPa recorded in #Siberia in 1968, it's definitely amazing. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
