Many Russians are planning a vacation not only for the coming summer, they are interested in whether the winter of 2019-2020 will be colder or milder and warmer than in previous seasons? After all, a great vacation is not only the warm sea and snow-white sand, but also snow-capped mountain peaks, and winter sports, and fishing on a frozen lake.
General forecast for the upcoming winter season
Recent studies by meteorologists confirm the fact that the winter of 2020 will be colder than the previous ones, but no serious natural disasters and abnormally low temperatures are expected. Truly frosty months are expected in the following regions:
- Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.
- Chukotka Autonomous Okrug.
- Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug.
- Saha Republic.
- Magadan Region.
- Krasnoyarsk region.
- Kamchatka Peninsula.
- Transbaikalia.
- Altai region.
The inhabitants of the northern and central regions will face the most severe frosts in January and February 2020. A moderately mild winter will be in the southern regions of the country, namely in the Crimea, Krasnodar Territory, Rostov Region, and the Republic of Adygea. The temperature outside the window of the inhabitants of these Russian regions will not fall below -7-8 degrees.
When to wait for the first snow
Forecasters predict that the winter of 2020 will not be the coldest, but snowy enough with high rainfall. The beginning of the cool period and the first snowflakes outside the window will appear among the residents of the north-east of the country in November 2019. Due to excessive dampness and humidity in the west and south of Russia, the coming winter will be more like a prolonged dank autumn with torrential rains, gusty winds and sleet.
Snow cover may be absent in the Crimea at all, with the exception of mountainous areas, but even this does not frighten local residents. To go skiing, snowboarding and sledding, they go to Krasnaya Polyana, the Caucasus and Altai, where snowfalls will take place already in early winter. On New Year's holidays in central Russia, a stable average temperature is expected, as in previous winters, frosty and clear weather. In the regions of northern and central Russia, short-term snowstorms are possible. Winter will not leave the vastness of Russia until April, although already in February the thaw and melting snow cover are expected in the Southern Federal District.
Will there be an abnormal cold
More than once the media discussed the issue of global warming on the planet and the so-called "greenhouse effect", so some Russians expect that winter in 2020 will be abnormally cold, the temperature will drop below -60 degrees. Of course, you can be scared when you watch Asian cities drown from the heavy rains of the cities of America and Europe, literally floods every summer. Unusual steel and tornadoes, storms, hurricanes in the United States, heavy floods of large Russian rivers. But this is no reason to sound the alarm. Meteorologists assure that no significant temperature fluctuations are expected throughout the Russian Federation.
The climate in the coming years will not undergo significant changes and will remain moderately mild.This is due to the special geographical position of Russia, its considerable length from north to south, the nature of the relief, atmospheric fronts and proximity to the cold seas - Okhotsk, Barents, Kara, over which powerful cyclones form in the winter, smoothing out sharp temperature fluctuations.
