Video footage captured on Sunday shows the beginning of a massive blizzard that dumped a record amount of snow on Moscow this weekend, with over 17 inches falling on the Russian capital in just 24 hours, breaking a record which was previously set all the way back in 1957. Heavy snow caused over 2000 trees to fall throughout the city, downing dozens of power lines, crushing several vehicles, and blocking some roads. One man died and several were injured as a result of snow-related incidents.
