Russians warned of extreme temperature changes in winter
This coming winter, the weather in Russia will be unstable - temperatures will fluctuate to extreme values. This was announced by the scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center Roman Vilfand in an interview with Izvestia.
He explained that in the European and Asian parts of the country the temperature background will remain near normal values, but at the same time extreme temperatures will also be observed.
“The temperature background will generally be near and above normal not only in Moscow , but also in the European part of Russia, and in the Asian part. But extreme values will be observed from a thaw in Moscow to noticeable frosts of -15... -20 degrees. <…> This analysis can be done in more detail at the beginning of next month,” the meteorologist said.
Vilfand also said that the current year will be the warmest for the entire period of average global temperature. Speaking about September 2023, a Hydromet representative said that it was the hottest in the entire period of meteorological observations, and the reason was given as the growing amount of greenhouse gases and an increase in the temperature of the Pacific Ocean.
As IA Regnum reported on November 2, Moscow residents were warned about the imminent return of abnormally warm weather. On Sunday, November 5, it is expected that in Moscow and the region the air will warm up to 13–14 degrees. As Vilfand noted, this temperature will be 7–8 degrees above normal.
