St. Petersburg met the first snow on the morning of November 13

On the morning of Friday, November 13, snow fell in St. Petersburg. Forecasters promised precipitation early in the morning.

By six in the morning in the Moscow district of the city snow as such was not — rather rain and snow. Snowflakes had time to melt in the air, and only drops of rain remained on the clothes of passers-by.

Half an hour later, the picture changed: St. Petersburgers could see a snowflake that lingered on clothes for a while. Not for long, but after a few minutes it melted. And by seven o'clock the snow became more noticeable, and the snowfall increased: on the cars you could see snow, on the sidewalks and visors of the entrances appeared a thin layer of snow.

Serious traffic jams, according to Yandex Maps, are not observed in the city, but snow can worsen visibility on the roads, so drivers should be more careful. Winter weather is only "looking" into the city: stable snow cover has not yet formed.
