No doubt.
The point is that is not a rare phenomena to see snow in the mediterranean like it would be to see the aurora borealis or frozen lakes in the midst of the city.
There are also a lot of mountains around the mediterranean that can get abnormally low in temperature for their geographical position, and villagers there keep shovels in their doorstep during winter.
Now,
Athens, I'm melting so I don't want to imagine how it would be for the Finno-Permic man

Well, in Madrid there were heavy snowfalls recently and 3 years ago too, the city is in the middle of the mountains which is frequent.

this also shows that real white people are invisible in snow scenery
I have recently found out that the Caucasoid side of Chuvashes is not only European-related, but there is some Iranian/Caucasian affinity as well. This seems to be the case for many other Volga Ural folks. The only Finnics that seem to lack it seem be Saamis, Finns and Estonians as they are located too west and up north. This Iranian/Caucasian-related admixture is likely from Turkic or Scythian/Sarmatian ancestry as these tribes use to roam Eurasia including the Volga area. Scythians/Sarmatians/Saka seem to be mainly Yamnaya/Steppe+BMAC (Bactriano Margiana Archaeological complex)/Iranian_related+Mongoloid admixture and that Scythian/Sarmatian ancestry in geographical Europe mostly exist among Tatars and other Volga Ural folks from what I have recently learned in Anthrogenica as they tend to have East Asian+BMAC-like signals: https://anthrogenica.com/showthread....iew-(G25-Data)

Alan_MA = seem to be a mix between Sarmatians and Kavkazians, genetically similar to modern day Chechens, Adygeis, Tajik_Yagnobi= represent Iranic admixture, Levanluhta_IA = ancient Saami-like pop (so already contain significant East Eurasian ancestry) need to improve fits, Maitan_Alakul = Steppe pop similar to Sintashta, MNG_Ulaanzukh_Slab_Grave = Mongolic/Tungusic/Turkic-type East Asian ancestry.

Interestingly, Saamis don't score any Iranic or Caucasian affinity. Maybe they are located too far northern for Scythian and Turkic tribes to migrate to.

You don't even need to try that hard. Commercial results are more than enough

Yes but I feel 23andme Chuvashia component is hiding his Mongoloid admixture. I want to see the gedmatch or G25 results. I wagered he will be around 25% East Eurasian as that's what Chuvash score on average.
Also I want to see whether Chuvashes really have Iranic/Caucasus or Central Asian-related admixture or not since they also speak a Turkic language. Also I was recently reading about Scythians/Sarmatians/Saka about how they are mainly a mix of Yamnaya and BMAC/Iranian-like with significant East Asian admixture. And I heard there is a significant Scythian ancestry among Tatars and other Volga Ural tribes so I decide to play with the samples to see whether they have that Scythian signal or not.
