“Almost the entire week the weather in the metropolitan area will be determined by the Atlantic cyclone, it will be very deep and will move across the north of European Russia ... Practically only the intensity of precipitation will change. Maybe there will be snow from light to light, significant snowfall this week, ”the weather forecaster said.

She emphasized that during the week the temperature will be slightly negative.

“The temperature at night will be slightly negative, like last night, somewhere -1 ... -3 ° C. The daily temperature in the city is also about 0 ° C. The exception will be only the night of January 11 to 12. One of the centers will behave like a diving cyclone, it will quickly pass near the capital and move east, and it is with this process that we expect a little more snow. It can be 2-3 centimeters of snow, ”the specialist added.

Pozdnyakova noted that in the near future we should expect the appearance of colder air.

“Following this cyclone, cooler air will come to us, but not frosty in any way. The crest of the West European cyclone will spread to the metropolitan region. It is possible that gaps will appear at night, and therefore the air temperature will be slightly lower than what we are now observing on the order of -5 ... -7 ° С. Daytime temperature will be slightly negative on January 12, ”the weather forecaster concluded.

Earlier, the acting head of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia, Roman Vilfand, promised nasty weather on the first working day in Moscow.
