Then there will be an increase in temperature and severe ice. Since Tuesday there will be light precipitation in the form of sleet. The temperature during the day is 0...+2 °C, but at night it will still be -3...-8 °C. Therefore, taking into account the temperatures, it will be very slippery, the roads will be icy,” Varakin said.
