Winter will be the most unusual in the twenty-first century. Forecasters said what to prepare for

Meteorologists warn: the coming cold season will go down in history not with record minuses, but with abnormal instability. Thermometers across the country are expected to show values 3-4 degrees above the climate norm, with the anomaly peaking in February.

Residents of Central Russia will have to get used to the game of “go zero”. Short thaws up to +4 ° C will be instantly replaced by frosts up to -15 ° C. In the Urals and Siberia, the contrasts will be even more shocking: after deceptive heat, the air will cool sharply to -30 ° C. The only exceptions will be the Arctic zones, Chukotka and the north of Yakutia, where the winter will remain truly severe.

Another attack is excess moisture. If December goes without surprises, then January will give rainfall 40% more than usual. Moscow and St. Petersburg are waiting for the alternation of wet snow and rain, and the yards will turn into a skating rink. In the Volga region and the Urals, snowfalls will instantly fetter roads with a dense crust of ice.

It will not be easier for the Far East. In Vladivostok, the temperature will rush from +3 ° C to -15 ° C, and in the north of Primorye, thermometers will drop to -25 ° C, in order to crawl up again after days.

The main conclusion of experts is disappointing: the winter of 2026-2027 will be a test of strength for the nervous system, motorists and utilities. The fight will not go with the cold, but with its constant and sharp shoots.
