Oymyakon, the other village that claims to be the coldest spot in the
northern hemisphere, is also in the Yakutia region of Russia. In English,
the name means “Oy, My Achin’ Toes”. Just kidding! In the Sakha language,
it means “non-freezing water”, because of the presence of a hot spring in
the midst of the permafrost. On January 26, 1926, the temperature in
Oymayakon was recorded as -96.2°F (-71.2°C). Some will argue with this
figure because it was achieved through extrapolation instead of a direct
thermometer measurement. Like Snag, Canada, Oymyakon lies in a bowl between
mountains, which traps cold air. The temperature in winter is often lower
than -50°F. It was -76°F just last week!
