Weather and health

On Tuesday, atmospheric cyclone fronts, one of which from the north of the central region is heading to the Middle Volga, and the second from the Baltic states to Belarus, will determine the weather in most of the European territory of Russia. In the North-West region there is light snow in places and a drop in temperature; during the day there is -12...-18oC. In the central regions, in the rear of the outgoing cyclone, it will become even colder, with northeastern and northern winds during the day -9...-14oC, and light snow in places. On Wednesday, the cold Arctic anticyclone will continue to move south, increasing frosts across most of European Russia.

In the capital at night -15...-17оС, in the region -14...-19оС, light snow during the day, conditions for sleet, ice, icicles, maximum temperature -10...-12оС, in the region -9... -14оС, wind north, northeast, 3--8 m/s.

In St. Petersburg there will be mostly no precipitation at night and light snow during the day. Temperature at night -18...-20oC, during the day -12...-14oC.

On Tuesday, in the north-west and in the center of the European territory of Russia, fluctuations in atmospheric pressure may provoke a deterioration in health in people suffering from unstable blood pressure. And a decrease in air temperature can negatively affect the well-being of people with bronchopulmonary diseases. On Wednesday, frosts will continue to intensify in the north-west and in the center of European territory, the average daily temperature will be significantly below the climate norm. Cold weather, and in the central regions with snow and blizzards, can negatively affect the well-being of people with chronic bronchopulmonary diseases.
