How's the weather???

Novosibirsk sits in a humid continental climate, which means it has warm summers and cold winters. Whereas temperatures can go as high as 95 degrees Fahrenheit during the summer, they have been known to drop as low as minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit in winter (although these extremes generally only occur a few times per year). Snowfall is generally light and steady, with snow falling about half of winter days. Sun is also quite common even during the winter, although the temperatures tend to be a little higher when it is cloudy and snowy. Although we know the weather will be much different from what we are typically used to in Texas, we know that the God who calls will also provide the grace and strength we will need to develop new routines. However, we can always use additional prayer for the transition to the new climate!
