“The weather in the Urals is very difficult: in the Chelyabinsk and Kurgan regions.
What is the reason for this?
A deep cyclone to the west of the Urals and a powerful anticyclone in the other direction, which yesterday and today determines the cold weather in European territory.
There is a very large pressure difference between them ... There are powerful north winds in the rear of the cyclone and they are caused by the horizontal pressure drop, "RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.
He noted that the high pressure area is gradually moving to the east.
According to Vilfand, the situation will improve by tomorrow.
Earlier, Wilfand spoke about the weather in Moscow and Central Russia at the end of February.
