Dubbed the 'storm of the century' by Russian media, hurricane force winds, snowfall and flooding that swept parts of southern Russia and left at least 13 people dead Monday and almost two million without power.
Huge waves crashed over beachside areas of Russia's Black Sea coast, video from social media showed, as wind speeds reached over 140 kilometres (about 90 miles) per hour in some places.
The head of Russia's national meteorological service said the storm that hit Crimea was the most powerful since record-keeping began, state news agency RIA Novosti reported.
The storm also hit southern Russia and sent waves flooding into the beach resort of Sochi.
