Sobre el tiempo o Irkutsk (Siberia) = Madrid (España)

Now, 18 february 2011, temperature in Siberia and in Spain is almost the same!
To be exact, http://angara.net/meteo says that there is around 0 grad C in Irkutsk and http://www.elmundo.es/tiempo/index.html says that in Madrid the temperature is also 0 grad C.
So, you still think that in Siberia is always -20 C? :)
