When there will be frosts in the year. Novosibirsk and Novosibirsk region

Which will be observed in Moscow in the winter of 2018, is of interest not only to residents of the capital, but also to other Russians. Muscovites want to know what natural surprises they will need to prepare for, because unexpected icing, snow blockages, frosts and heavy winds can cause a lot of inconvenience. Not only drivers of personal cars and pedestrians should prepare for surprises, but also everyone who is employed in the fields of agriculture, energy, heat supply and transport, as an unpredictable natural collapse can completely stop the life of a metropolis.

Of particular interest to residents and guests of the capital is the opinion of meteorologists about what the weather will be like in late December and early January. These days fall on everyone's favorite New Year and Christmas holidays, which means that many Russians will come to Moscow who want to celebrate the celebration and admire the famous Moscow illuminations.

Find out what weather conditions Russians should expect in the winter of 2018!

Of course, everyone would like winter to please us with fluffy snow and light frost, but unpleasant natural surprises in the form of abnormal frosts and thaws are also possible. Let's find out what meteorologists predict regarding weather conditions for the winter of 2018!

Winter forecast for Moscow

Unfortunately, weather forecasts - like any other - are purely probabilistic. Specialists from the Hydrometeorological Center cannot absolutely accurately describe the atmospheric conditions in the Russian capital for several months in advance. On the one hand, now their assumptions have become much more accurate than a few decades ago. This is because the novelties of technological progress make it possible to make fairly accurate calculations.

On the other hand, no matter how excellent computer modeling is, the final forecast will still not be 100% accurate. Unexpected movements of air masses, precipitation, changes in atmospheric pressure, unusual behavior of ocean currents and other factors can reverse even the most obvious trend. It should be remembered that meteorologists can give an accurate forecast only for a period not exceeding seven to eight days.

General weather trends for winter 2018

If we talk about the current winter, then most weather forecasters agree: the anomalous picture of past seasons, most likely, will not be repeated in Moscow. The sharp temperature drops observed last and the winter before last were provoked by increased solar activity. Now the ten-year cycle is on the wane, so that solar winds and flares, having lost their former intensity, will affect the Earth's climate less noticeably.

As solar activity decreases, winters on Earth will become milder

However, another opinion was published on the network, voiced by British experts. They argue that most European countries and the central part of the Russian Federation are expecting a winter that will be the most severe in the last hundred years. Russian meteorologists have a different opinion, promising Muscovites and residents of the Moscow region a rather mild winter.

They say that it will be much warmer than last year, and maybe even the most comfortable in the last 15 years. Of course, one cannot count on a tropical paradise - in February, the capital traditionally expects frost and piercing wind. However, spring will come according to the natural calendar - this time you won’t have to freeze for too long.

Weather forecast for December 2017

According to forecasters, the first of the winter months could break the temperature record recorded in recent decades. Presumably, the average daily temperature in December is unlikely to drop below 5 degrees below zero. From time to time, a thaw of up to +3 / +4 degrees will be recorded in the capital. Snow in the first decade of December is not worth waiting for, but by the New Year, nature can pamper the inhabitants of Moscow with small snowdrifts. From the 15th, the thermometer will drop to minus 6 degrees during the day and minus 10 at night.

Weather forecast for January 2018

The second winter month is the period when nature shows its strength through snowfalls and blizzards. Meteorologists, after analyzing the January trends over the past ten years, suggest that January 2018 will be snowy, but not too frosty. Presumably, during the three decades of January, the weather in the capital and the region will change as follows.

In early January, meteorologists promise the Russians a light pleasant snow

1.01.2018 – 10.01.2018 - the temperature will be set at around 8-10 degrees below zero during the day and 12-14 degrees below zero at night. This period will be accompanied by precipitation in the form of moderate snowfall, so that kids and adults can enjoy a real New Year's fairy tale - a welcome attribute;
11.01.2018 – 20.01.2018 - the middle of the month will bring with it a cooling down to 15-17 degrees during the day and 19-22 at night. The maximum at which the thermometer will fall is expected from 17 to 21 January. Presumably, at this time, you can expect 24-26 degrees of frost at night. However, this trend is quite traditional for Baptism. Then nature will allow Muscovites to rest a little - the temperature will rise by 5-6 degrees below zero, but a snow cyclone with drifts and snowdrifts will come to Moscow and the region;
21.01.2018 – 31.01.2018 - before the onset of February, snowfalls will contribute to warming. It is expected that it will be about 11-14 degrees of frost outside during the day, and it will get cold at night to a mark of 15-17 degrees below zero. It is worth getting ready for snowdrifts - it is advisable for motorists to stock up on shovels in order to free their iron horse from the snow captivity.

Weather forecast for February 2018

At the beginning of the month, Moscow will be covered with snow - which, however, will bring with it only positive changes, because snowfall is the guarantor of a mild winter. According to forecasts, in the first ten days of February, the thermometer will rise sharply - during the day you can expect minus 5-7 degrees, and at night - up to 10-12 degrees below zero. It will be somewhat colder in the north of the Central region of the country; in addition, significant drifts and snowstorms are expected here.

The last winter blow of cold weather can be felt after February 20 - daily 20-23-degree frost, which will sharply cover the capital after the thaw, will lead to black ice. At night, you can expect to minus 27-28 degrees. Snow in this period of February is not expected. Nevertheless, this will be the last natural blow to Muscovites' endurance. From the 26th, snow will fall again, and the temperature will rise. Some forecasters claim that there will be a significant temperature imbalance - up to -6-9 degrees during the day and -12-14 at night.

Folk omens

Sometimes signs are much more accurate than the promises of meteorologists!

Since weather forecasters cannot give us a definite answer about the coming winter, we can try to determine its main trends on our own - as our ancestors did. Not so long ago, when it was impossible to receive information from TV screens and computer monitors, the inhabitants of the countryside always had time to adapt to the coming weather changes, simply by watching birds, animals and natural phenomena.

Winter is a wonderful time. Only in the snowy season can one enthusiastically enjoy frosty matinees and enjoy the bright winter sun. Of course, it is already interesting to know what kind of winter 2019 is expected? What awaits the Russians in this snow-white season?

What will the winter be like?

As for reliable forecasts, it is impossible to give them today. The thing is that accurate data on weather phenomena can be found out a couple of weeks before the desired event.

Forecasters predict that the upcoming winter period will be practically no different from the previous year. But what the winter will be like in 2019 can also be determined from the forecasts from the people.

December. The beginning of the frosty period in our Russia falls, as a rule, in mid-November. It is in this autumn month that a sharp decrease in temperature regimes begins. Only in November, one can observe strong autumn frosts, which are repeated only in January. But the month of December often becomes moderately warm. The initial dates of the month are famous for temperature conditions, where the thermometer reaches minus 15 winter degrees. Closer to the middle of the same month, the cold season begins, at this moment the street thermometer can drop sharply to minus 28 frosty degrees. And in the North in December, the ambient temperature often reaches minus 33 degrees below zero. By the end of the month, nature slows down a bit, so during this period the approximate ambient temperature reaches minus 18 degrees.
January. Many are interested in knowing what winter will be like, just because of the New Year holidays. Forecasters predict a fairly warm New Year's Eve. At this point, the ambient temperature can reach the limit of minus 10 degrees. But in subsequent dates, a relative cooling will occur. The average regime of temperature phenomena in January will remain within the limit of minus 18 degrees, but during the indicated time, severe frosts will be observed for a couple of days, at which point the air temperature will reach minus 33 degrees.
February. The windiest month will not change its positions. In February, the winds will come into their activity, which will cause the peak of epidemics and viral diseases. It cannot be said that February will become very frosty, the approximate air temperature at this moment will remain at the limit of minus 20 degrees. But it is important to point out that it is February that is the fickle and changeable winter period, so the air temperature will fluctuate within different limits almost every day.

As for snow-covered precipitation, at the beginning of the winter period they practically will not manifest themselves, but by the end of December, Russians can enjoy the fluffy crust of snow.

Forewarned means armed or the Hydrometeorological Center says!

Despite the triumphant march of progress, scientists still find it difficult to make accurate predictions in the long term. However, in their arsenal there are many ways to track average weather data with reference to the area and taking into account global climate change. This is important, since the territory of Russia is huge, and all the inhabitants of the state, without exception, strive to prepare for the winter.

To prevent the vagaries of nature from being taken by surprise, the employees of the Hydrometeorological Center create weather reports - models that are based on mathematical principles and are embedded in special computer programs. Artificial intelligence processes and summarizes the information provided by specialists for a whole century, including in its calculations:

Atmosphere pressure;
air temperature and humidity;
wind speed and cloudiness;
probability and saturation of precipitation.

These are just the main parameters. In fact, there is much more data and scientists have to do gigantic work.

Information from the Hydrometeorological Center suggests that winter in Russia will not be too severe, but rather average. Some instability is expected in the eastern part of the country due to general climatic changes, but no cataclysms are expected in the Central region.

Winter forecast for residents of Russia's most densely populated region

To describe the weather throughout the Russian Federation, you will need to compose an opus appropriate to the size of the state. It is much easier to highlight the landmarks that are characteristic of the middle lane. According to meteorologists, events will develop as follows:

Winter will come early - snowfalls are expected in November 2017
Heavy rainfall will continue in the first ten days of December, but a thaw will come by the middle of the month.
On New Year's Eve, temperatures will drop again and delight with snow-covered landscapes
January 2018 will be frosty and windy
The cold will recede only by the end of February

The main characteristic feature of the winter of 2017-2018 in the Central part of Russia will be mild temperature transitions and the absence of sharp jumps in atmospheric pressure.

When will the cold come in Moscow?

The capital of Russia will meet winter with the first November snow. Here, thermometers will not record sudden temperature fluctuations (fluctuations in the region of -5 - 10 Celsius with frequent drops), and strong winds will get confused among skyscrapers and will not be as penetrating as outside the city.

Scientists state that megacities are characterized by a special microclimate, and Moscow is no exception. The abundance of heated buildings affects temperature fluctuations and brings thaws in company with dampness and slush. Residents of Belokamennaya should stock up on shoe dryers and prepare for icy conditions.

Winter season in St. Petersburg

Northern Palmyra demonstrates a clear adherence to the weather course taken in previous years. Temperatures traditionally rush to -7 ° C during the day and slightly lower on the scale at night. "Democratic" temperature indicator does not exclude chilly weather. The cold will be brought by gusty winds and high humidity characteristic of the surrounding area.

Those who are going to visit St. Petersburg in the winter of 2017-2018 will have to take warm clothes with them, including waterproof shoes, because the local -5 degrees will give odds to the rare -20s for the middle lane. Only such equipment will save from the peculiar climate of the most beautiful city in the world and will allow you to endure its whims: sleet, moisture and blizzards.

What will the weather be like in the Urals?

Crackling Ural frosts will envelop the earth at the end of autumn. November temperatures will rush down and bring frequent snowfalls. By the beginning of December, the area will be covered with impressive snowdrifts, and in the middle of the month it will get colder to -20 degrees Celsius, but the weather will remain clear and calm.

Having entered the law, winter will bring even more cold, and the thermometers will drop to minus 25. Later, the mistress of frost will get better and the weather will be ideal for winter sports. January will add snow and bring winds. This month it is recommended to prepare for due problems. February will be raging with frosts, but they will be familiar to the inhabitants of the region.

Winter 2017-2018: monthly forecast

winter month	Weather forecast	Average monthly air temperature
December 2017	The beginning of winter will be snowy. Warming will come closer to the middle and last for a week. December will end with a slight chill	from -5 - 9 0 C during daylight hours to 7-10 0 C at night
January 2018	New Year's decade will pass without strong winds and precipitation. By Epiphany, frosts will come that will last for several days, and after that, the thermometer will indicate severe frosts	from -5 - 9 0 C at the beginning of the month to -20 - 25 0 C towards the end
February 2018	The last month of the season will be the most capricious with rapid temperature changes and dramatic weather changes.	from -9 - 13 0 C and below

What will winter 2017 be like? Answering this question, the country's meteorologists declare with great confidence that it will be completely identical to the winter of 2016. However, there will still be some minor changes.

Winter in Russia, what is it like?

First, the amount of precipitation is expected to be much less. In other words, one should not be afraid of strong and prolonged snowstorms and snowfalls, which prevented not only the movement of people, but also slowed down the entire transport system, both in the air and on the ground.
Second, temperature. As for the winter temperature regime and its indicator, this winter it will also be much lower.
Thirdly, the frequent change of weather conditions, which will serve as a kind of inconstancy, which can negatively affect the well-being of many people.

According to the weather forecasters themselves, it is too early to make forecasts, but still, it is worth noting the fact that winter can be safely divided into two parts, each of which has its own weather and features. In other words, one half will be quite frosty and cold, but the other half will be relatively dry and sunny, which, in terms of its weather characteristics, will more resemble early spring.

Monthly forecast.

In order to understand in more detail the features of the winter climate, it is best to study the weather forecast by months in detail and in detail, on the basis of which it is already possible to draw conclusions and conclusions.

1.December. The very first winter month, which means that the weather should be more moderate and calm. But, is it really so? In December, weather forecasters predict moderately frosty weather, and the average temperature level will range from -15 to -18 degrees Celsius. I would like to say that it is relatively cold. It should be noted that the main frosts and cooling should be expected in mid-December, not earlier. As for the first half of the month, the temperature will be warm and strong, that is, heavy precipitation in the form of snow or rain, which is very typical for this winter, is not predicted. As for the second half of the month, closer to the New Year holidays, we should still expect a slight warming, while the amount of precipitation will increase significantly and increase compared to the first half. Moreover, it will mostly be wet snow, so the weather for the New Year holidays will most likely not be the most festive and desirable.

2.January. This month, according to forecasters, will be the coldest among all. Although, the first days will talk about the exact opposite. In the first half of January, we should expect a fairly large amount of precipitation in the form of snow, so there is a good opportunity to go skiing or sledding in the winter chill. As for the temperature, it will be in the range from -10 to -19 degrees Celsius. But in the second half of the frost, you should dress warmer, as the real Epiphany frosts and colds will come, but with a small amount of precipitation in the form of snow. At the end of January, the temperature will drop, and, therefore, warming is expected, it is even possible to rain in some areas and regions, and snowfall in others.

3. February. The snowfall, which began at the end of January, will gradually move and move on to February, bringing at the same time warm enough weather not for this month. In other words, the temperature will be relatively high, but in the second half there will be a sharp drop to -15 degrees Celsius.

Based on all this information, we can conclude that the winter will be very changeable and unstable.

And what kind of weather awaits the capital, what should Muscovites prepare for, and will there be a significant difference from the general forecast?

Forecast of weather forecasters in Moscow.

If we consider the temperature regime of winter weather in Moscow, then we can distinguish the following pattern - all months are divided into decades, that is, small periods of time, each of which has its own temperature indicator.

Answering the question, what will be the winter of 2017, we can safely say cold and with snow. But, you should not rely too much on all forecasts, because nature and weather are unpredictable and it changes in an instant. But, nevertheless, we will expect that there will be no cardinal and significant changes.

A fairly truthful and reliable forecast for the winter of 2016-2017 in Moscow can be made today. And let the skeptics say that predicting the weather is a thankless task, we all know that modern science, based on many years of observations of meteorological conditions in Moscow, will allow us to say with great confidence what winter will be like next year.

General forecast

Muscovites and guests of the capital will be able to feel the first frost, pinching their cheeks and coloring them with a bright blush, already in November. Forecasters promise sub-zero temperatures already from the middle of the last month of autumn, so we will come to winter already very “prepared”.

Winter 2016-2017 promises to be not so generous with precipitation, except for the first month. Severe frosts do not threaten us either - according to the promises of meteorologists, the winter should be moderately cold, without sharp temperature fluctuations. Probably, we will not have strong snowstorms and blizzards - based on long-term observations, weather forecasters promised a uniform temperature, without severe frosts and unexpected thaws.

Slight, rather moderate frost, not too heavy snowfalls, the absence of sharp temperature fluctuations - this is exactly such a general forecast for the winter of 2016-2017 in Moscow. If the forecasters' words come true, the winter will be simply magnificent, won't it?

Weather forecast for December 2016 in Moscow

The first snow should lie on the ground in mid-November. But even if this promise of weather forecasters does not come true, you should not worry - the first decade of December will be snowy and quite warm.

After the sharp November frosts, December promises to bring us quite warm - for winter, of course, the weather. Down to minus 2C during the day, down to minus 7C at night, and all this, together with heavy snowfall, will make the beginning of winter truly fabulous!

The second decade of December will be more frosty - which, in general, is not surprising. The average daytime temperature is about minus 10-12C, at night - up to minus 15-17C. After the snowfalls of the beginning of the month, weather forecasters do not promise us a bright sun, rather, a slightly overcast sky. This, unfortunately, means a fairly high humidity, and because of this, frost will seem more significant to many.

Well, by the end of the month, the thermometer will again rise slightly - to minus 6-8C during the day. In addition, heavy snowfalls are very likely, so by the favorite holiday of Russians - the New Year - we will get nice fluffy snowdrifts and a light frost.

Weather forecast for January 2017 in Moscow

Freezing will begin before the New Year. However, for the long New Year holidays, the weather promised to be perfect - light snow, light snow - up to minus 10C - frost, no wind and, as a result, snowstorms. These days it will be possible to go skiing or sledding, snowmobiling or tubing with pleasure - according to meteorologists, the conditions for a country holiday will be simply excellent.

But the second decade of January will remind us what Russian winter is. Clear, but frosty weather should be established throughout Moscow and the region. During the day - up to minus 20C, at night - up to minus 27C. True, in the last days of January we are promised a slight increase in temperature - up to minus 15C.

Forecast for February 2017

The beginning of February will be marked by a slight warming - about 10-12C during the day. The warming, which was barely visible in the last days of January, will intensify in the first ten days of February. Such a noticeable change in temperature is very likely to result in light snowfalls. Although the opinions of weather forecasters differ on this issue: someone promises only a light, barely noticeable snowfall, and someone promises a heavy snowfall that lasts for two or three days.

Mid-February 2017 in Moscow is frosty and sunny weather. The cold snap will be very strong and to some it will seem very sharp. Due to the rapid change of weather, people suffering from meteorological dependence will have a very difficult time. However, clear weather will be established fairly quickly - and for a long time. Warming will come only in the very last days of February. Such a quick and strong thaw will be the first "bell" that marks the arrival of the long-awaited spring.
