Moscow Set for Unseasonably Warm, Dry Mid-November as Sverdlovsk Builds Snow Cover

Forecasters expect Moscow to run 6–8 degrees above normal, with the Urals accumulating 10–20 centimeters of snow by mid to late November.

Overview

  • Russia’s Hydrometcentre reports very warm conditions across European Russia this weekend, with Moscow about 6–8°C above the seasonal norm.
  • Roman Vilfand forecasts no precipitation in the capital or region, with daytime temperatures around 8–11°C and nights near 6–8°C.
  • The Ural Hydrometcentre says snow cover will establish across parts of Sverdlovsk in the coming days as colder air pushes into the area.
  • By the end of the second ten-day period of November, snow depth is expected to reach 10–13 cm in northern and eastern districts and up to 20 cm in the far north.
  • Agrometeorologists report winter crops in Sverdlovsk are wintering satisfactorily, though a November 4 drop to −18°C briefly threatened above‑ground plant parts.
