This week [until February 19] should be with a slightly modified weather. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the temperature will not leave much to minus and will be about –1–6 degrees. Then, most likely, it will snow. On Saturday, there will be an increase in the wind of the eastern and southeastern direction.
