The town that was turned into an ice-block: Russian streets frozen solid after pipes burst during storm in sub-zero temperatures
According to Dailymail UK, residents in Dudinka, central Siberia, emerged from their homes after a powerful storm to find their street frozen solid up to their waists. The storm had burst several waterpipes in the town, and with temperatures dropping to -40C during the night, the water froze solid in the street. Although many homes were left without water and electricity, internet connections were as solid as the frozen streets, and Dudinka residents shared images of their plight on social media.
