All it has to do is rain a bit and our power goes out. Our city could never survive a Russian winter.

Another Isabel van Brugen piece. She always writes doom & floom for Russia, but none have panned out yet.

Russian cities usually use zone heating, where the entire city gets pumped hot water from a central plant to keep the apartments warm

A few cities in the US use a form of it, from Austin TX up to several in North Dakota (looking at you, Minot AFB).

A burst hot water pipe is not desirable ...

At least they have real fur coats to keep them warm. Russians are at least allowed to be creative. Here in Upstate NY...we freeze until the power goes back on. Sure wish I had a gas stove. You put a pan of water in the oven....and it’ll take the chill off in no time.

"they are left with no choice but to warm their homes with gas stoves, heaters"

Winters are rough in Russia? Who knew? If I were freezing and the choices were gas or electric for heat, then gas it is. Takes the gas-powered water boiler, generator and transmission line middlemen out of the equation.

Same thing on the verge of happening here.

I bet Ukraine is cold as hell too.

Oh no, tens of thousands of Russians without power! How many in US are without power today? Tens of thousands. This tomfoolery you’ve posted today rivals your obsession with Ruskie eggs.
