“The most insidious weather is spring: the sun is warm, but the ground is still very cold... The temperature difference is very large... We immediately undress, and then don’t dress when it’s already cool in the evening. For example, if during the day it is +10 °C, then at night we have +1...+2 °C. Naturally, this difference has a very bad effect on the health of our people. The snow has not melted yet, there is a lot of moisture in the air, it is cold... You need to dress according to the weather,” the expert explained.
At the same time, she emphasized that you shouldn’t overheat - you don’t need to wear a fur coat, but, in her opinion, it’s too early for light triggers.

Commenting on how to properly dress children in such weather, Lapa recalled that during this period there are strong winds, so to avoid the wind, you can get light demi-season coats.
“You no longer need to wear warm woolen
sweaters inside, you can use a light vest so you can unbutton... If there is a cold wind, you should always provide the opportunity to throw on a scarf so that your throat is not exposed,” the doctor concluded.
Earlier, the head of the Meteo forecasting center, Alexander Shuvalov, in a conversation with RT, predicted warming in Moscow.
