Mogocha saw a weak frost of -0.8°C, easily beating the previous minimum for this day of +2.3°C set in 1965.
In Sretensk on July 5 a new record low of +4.8, which is 1.7 degrees lower than the previous one set in 1965.
"There is no heat out there," says FMI Meteorologist Jari Tuovinen.
Instead, Tuovinen adds, there will likely be a new cold record-or-two set along Finland's Eastern border on Monday, July 08 — a chilly 10C (50F) is predicted, which could bring new low daily-max temperature records for the month of July to the region.
Norway is expecting even colder temps — locally, a few degrees C below zero is in the forecast.
The mercury in Rotenburg, Lower Saxony plunged to 2.9C (37.2F) on Thursday morning — low enough to break the town's all-time record cold temperature for the month of July which had stood since 1946, according to wetter.com.
The new record low temperature comes just days after Germany logged an all-time record high — serving as further evidence of the swings-between-extremes brought on by low solar activity and the associated weakening of the jet stream.
Whilst we normally think of Alaska as largely freezing and snow-covered, the US's northernmost state is forecast to bake in temperatures reaching 30.5 degrees Celsius (87 degrees Fahrenheit) or higher over the next five days, stretching from July 4 through July 8, according to the National Weather Service.
Its largest city, Anchorage, broke its all-time temperature record on Friday, reaching 31 degrees Celsius (89 degrees Fahrenheit) at the city's airport.
The previous record was also set in the airport on June 14, 1969, and reached a temperature of 29.4 degrees Celsius (84.9 degrees Fahrenheit).

Forty climbers set out at 06.00 am to climb to the summit and had to return to Avusor Plateau.

Despite the lower volume, the price is not expected to increase. The region's lower areas have been the most hit by the frosts of the past few months, and in the high areas, the producers will be able to pick cherries until mid-August.
The heat of recent days hasn't been too much of a concern for the entrepreneurs, as the high temperatures haven't taken a toll on the harvest and the quality of the cherries hasn't been affected.
