The opening of Yekaterinburg's main ice rink is being postponed.

      The opening of the main rink in Yekaterinburg on 1905 Square is being postponed. The planned dates are after December 19–20. But this is not definite yet. The rink was supposed to start operating on December 12. Reports the Telegram channel "Yekaterinburg. Main".

      Everything is being postponed for obvious reasons: the Urals experienced an anomalously warm November.

      — To create high-quality ice, specialists need about two weeks of continuous flooding with water, and throughout that time the temperature must reliably stay below zero (from −5°C to −15°C). You can't "freeze" ice in above-freezing weather, alas, even if you really wanted to.

      It is also reported that the gala show, which famous athletes were due to attend, will be postponed:

      — The skaters won't be able to rearrange their schedules, and you can't hold a performance without ice. We'll try to stage a beautiful and spectacular show on one of the days the rink is open.
