Sochi 2014
Direct quotes from a travel brochure on Sochi, site of Winter Olympics 2014 (Temperature on Sunday was 66 degrees F)
"Multimedia, Sochi News July 17th, 2008
Tornadoes are actually quite common in Sochi, though are not as large as the ones destroying whole towns in USA. However, in Sochi they often cause havoc as well. Twisters in Sochi usually form over the Black Sea during stormy weather, then coming down crushing at the city. Two years ago in August, strong tornado came in destroying residential houses (our family friend’s house was almost completely destroyed — and these are brick houses!), part of «Youzhnye Kultury» park, and many buses on overnight bus parking, causing public transportation interruption in Adler for the next few weeks"
From Sochi Travel Info -Travel the Russina Rivieria!
One of the amazing things about the Vancouver Olympics was the succesful way (in most cases) the Canadians dealt with the weather problems dealt to them on a daily basis. But even they did not have to deal with tornados. This should be interesting, most especially in the way things will be worded by the Soshi Olympic Committee when faced with meteorological events out of their hands.
