Weather and health

The monotony of weather on the territory of European Russia has become a thing of history. The beginning of February is characterized by a wide range of temperatures and a variety of weather phenomena. The main object of attention of forecasters is the next Atlantic cyclone, which, with its atmospheric fronts, will divide the European territory of Russia into a relatively warm and very cold part. The most severe frosts on Tuesday and Wednesday will fall on the Russian North. On Tuesday, an active Scandinavian cyclone will bring snow of varying intensity to the middle zone, blizzards in places, and drifts on the roads. In the northwestern regions, in the rear of the cyclone, there will be snow in places. Daytime temperature -13...-18оС. Most central regions will experience snowfall (heavy in the southern half) as the cyclone's center approaches. In some places there will be accumulation of wet snow, blizzard conditions with winds up to 17 m/s, and daytime temperatures of 0...-7°C.

In the capital there is heavy snow at night, -2...-4оС, in the daytime -1...-3оС, drop in the evening to -6...-8оС, east wind, 4--9 m/s.

There is light snow in St. Petersburg. Temperature at night -16...-18oC, during the day -13...-15oC.

In central European Russia on Tuesday the background pressure will be low, snow and blizzards are expected. This weather is unfavorable for people with unstable blood pressure. Fluctuations in atmospheric pressure can worsen the well-being of people with cardiovascular diseases. And wet weather with gusty winds increases the risk of colds. On Wednesday, a sharp increase in frost is expected in the north-west and central zone of European Russia.
