Blizzard brings over 2 meters (7 feet) of snow to Erzurum, Turkey
Lots of snow on the Silk Pass between Ağrı, Doğubayazıt and Diyadin county causing vehicles to be stuck on the road and forcing closure of roads to the Iranian border, Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan.
A rescue operation was launched for stranded vehicles.
Highway 123 Branch Chief Fuat Öztürk, said in a statement to reporters that the snow came suddenly, due to a heavy blizzard and storm. The Silk Gateway road is closed to traffic of trucks that are caught in the spur because he stated that they wear summer tires.
It took a lot of time and effort to clear the road to the village Tekman, where the electrical power was cut off by a snowstorm (tipi).

Reader's comment: For those who read the original article, translate.google.com translates the name Ağrı into "pain" and tipi into "type", while tipi also means snowstorm or blizzard.
Of course the MSM does not report this news, but look at the video to see it with your own eyes.
