Meanwhile, Far Inside the Arctic Circle...


Vehrkhoyansk, Siberia sits inside the Arctic Circle.  Today the town of 1,300 set a new record, 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit.  The town also holds a Guinness record of minus 68 Celsius. 

Vehrkhoyansk is located in the Sakha Republic where 275,000 hectares of forest are now burning.

Hmm, I wonder what's going on?
