Geography and climate
The village of Belaya Gora (Yakutia) is located in the Republic of Sakha. She, in turn, occupies a sixth of Russia. A little less than half of all this area is located beyond the Arctic Circle, including Belaya Gora.
From October to April, the season lasts with negative air temperatures. Asian anticyclone is critical for winter weather. Despite severe frosts (in January the air temperature can drop to -55 ° C), the wind almost never happens. Snow falls quite a bit. Rarely, when the level of snow cover reaches a height of 25 cm or more. The reason for this is dry air.
Summer in these parts is very short, but warm. The average temperature in July is + 19 ° C. But there is a big difference between night and day temperatures. If we talk about record air temperatures, then they can exceed + 35 ° C.
The transition periods from summer to winter and back are very short. So in the fall, the temperature very quickly ceases to rise above 0 ° C. And spring is not felt at all due to the lack of strong snow melting. There is practically no water, and the existing snow cover evaporates under the influence of dry air.
Since Yakutia is considered a permafrost place, even the hot summer sun can melt only a couple of centimeters of the upper soil layer. In deeper layers, the temperature does not reach positive values even at the end of summer.
