Dras colder than Siberia right now: Ladakh’s coldest village records extreme chill as snow grips region

Dras, India, is currently experiencing colder conditions than parts of Siberia, with daytime highs near 1°C and snowfall accumulating. This temporary reversal is attributed to Dras's high altitude, valley location, and clear, dry atmosphere which accelerate heat loss. While Siberia is vast and temperatures fluctuate, Dras's local weather can, at times, surpass even the world's coldest regions.
