Anomalously hot weather kills metro passengers in Moscow

he anomalously hot weather in Moscow has broken all possible records. It is a real torture for Muscovites to use the underground in such weather conditions. In rush hours the temperature in metro cars rises to +33° С . Awful noise, the lack of oxygen and thousands of passengers make it almost impossible to survive a metro ride.

For elderly and hypertensive people every trip in the Moscow metro can easily turn into their last one. Ten people have already died in the metro since the time when anomalously hot weather hit Moscow. Every day about 15 Muscovites faint in the Moscow underground.
