The main idea of the text is a weather forecast warning of potentially dangerous cold temperatures expected in Russia around New Year's. Specifically, the text emphasizes: * Extreme cold in the Far East: Temperatures might reach -50 degrees Celsius in Yakutia, Magadan Oblast, Chukotka, and the Kolyma region. * Significant temperature drop: Temperatures across the Far Eastern Federal District will drop by 4-10 degrees Celsius below normal by December 29th. * Cold in Western Siberia: Temperatures in Western Siberia will be around -25 to -30 degrees Celsius, with the Altai Republic potentially reaching -40 to -42 degrees Celsius. The text emphasizes the seriousness of the forecast, using strong language like "potentially dangerous cold temperatures" and highlighting the potential impact on people living in these regions.
