The submitted title was "Zombie fires in northeastern Yakutia continue to burn at air temperature of -50C". We changed it to what the article says.

Submitters: please don't rewrite titles like that—this is in the guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. (But if the article title itself changed, obviously that's different.)

I have a feeling the Siberian Times updated the headline. Normally I spot when the HN title differs from the headline of a news article, and i think I’d be especially observant with this unfamiliar "zombie fire" phrase. But I didn't notice anything amiss when I opened this one up originally.
