where is verkhoyansk?

Answer 1

The far northeast region of Siberia is called Verkhoyansk. It is very cold area.

The coldest winter temperatures occur in eastern Siberia, while air from the Atlantic Ocean tempers conditions somewhat in the west. Verkhoyansk in the northeast is often called the "cold pole of the north." During January, temperatures there average -51°C (-59°F), and they have reached a low of -68°C (-90°F) in February. The same conditions that make for cold temperatures during winter—isolation from the sea and narrow valleys between mountains—produce air stagnation in Verkhoyansk in summer. Furthermore, because the city is so far north, it experiences nearly continuous daylight hours in summer. During July temperatures in Verkhoyansk average 13°C (56°F) and have reached as high as 37°C (98°F). The city has an absolute temperature range (the difference between the coldest and hottest recorded temperatures) of 105°C (188°F), by far the greatest temperature range on Earth.

Verkhoyansk (Russian: Верхоя́нск) is a town in the Sakha Republic, Russia, situated on the Yana River, near the Arctic Circle, 675 km from Yakutsk. There is river port, an airport, a fur-collecting depot, and the center of a reindeer-raising area. Population: 1,434 (2002 Census). It preserves the status of town only historically; it is one of the smallest towns in Russia.

A cossack settlement was founded in 1638 90 km south-west of the modern town. In 1775 it was moved to the left bank of the Yana River, to facilitate tax collection. It received the status of town in 1817. Between the 1860s and 1917 the town was a place of political exile.

Verkhoyansk is noted chiefly for its exceptionally low winter temperatures, with a January average of −58°F (−50°C). It lies in the coldest area of the Northern Hemisphere (a.k.a. Stalin's Death Ring), and together with Oymyakon is one of the places considered the northern Pole of Cold The lowest temperature recorded there in 1892, was −69.8°C (−93.6°F). Temperatures in Verkhoyansk have spanned 105°C (189°F): from −68°C (−90.4°F) to 37°C (98°F). January 2006 saw temperatures coming close to the all-time record, when it reached a low of −66.7°C (−88.1°F).

In this area, "cold lakes" form in winters, which means that temperature is actually getting warmer when the altitude is higher rather than vice-versa.
