2014 - Russia - Violent Hailstorm in Siberia as Temperature Drops Sharply - 15/7/14,News,,Novosibirsk, Russia (15 Jul 2014) - On Saturday, the eastern Siberian city of Novosibirsk witnessed an unusual downpour of hailstones, with temperatures plummeting by 20 degrees (celsius) within a few minutes. Local media reported some to be the size of golf balls or hen eggs. A video emerged on YouTube showing a beach on the banks of the Ob River. At first, the footage shows the usual summer scenes of beachgoers enjoying themselves while swimming, sunbathing, and playing games. A few seconds later, the weather suddenly changes -- strong winds start blowing and tearing of branches off nearby trees. The sky goes dark and freakishly large balls of hail start shooting from the sky. The beach was covered with a white sheet of hail just one minute after the storm started. The footage shows people running and covering their heads in search for shelter as the scene unfolds. A scared female voice can be heard saying "If we die, I love you." The hail was so dense that the other bank of the river was not visible at the time of the storm. The hail was then replaced by heavy rain, flooding nearby streets and parking areas. Local media reported that the wind knocked down several trees and hail broke windows in some apartment blocks. A storm warning was issued in Novosibirsk for Sunday and Monday. No casualties have yet been reported. Siberia is known for its freezing temperatures in winter, but in some parts of the vast eastern region -- which stretches from the Ural Mountains to the Pacific and Arctic -- the summer temperatures are similar to the Mediterranean.
