Hitler explained the failure in front of Moscow because of the bad temperature of the weather.
The 8th November he was sure of his victory : "never such a big empire as the SU was beaten so quick and so hard !".
The 2nd December a German unit is at about 18 km of Moscow and pretends to see the Kremlin in its binoculars.
But the 5th December soviet counter-offensive destroyed German lines and push back them 100-150 km away.
The 19th December Hitler blames "the sudden coming of winter" for the failing.
The 30 January he evoked a cold of -38; -40, -41 and even -45 celsius...
The 24 February he said that it was the coldest winter in Russian history for more than a century !
The 26 April the century became 140 years ; the 29 may it became 150 years and the temperature kept on drowning to -50 !
Indeed, the coldest temperature recorded by the germans was -35 the 5th December.
What I am looking for is the soviet records. What is the point of view of the Red Army about this so called lowest temperature ?
Thanks
