By folk wisdom says that during this period the first crust of snow should cover the ground. And, as you know, it is fluffy snow that is clear sign frosty season.

But in these years, the first snow rarely falls on Pokrov. Statistics prove that in specified time in October, the weather is still moderately warm, so it's too early to talk about the coming of winter.

As for precipitation in the form of snow, the first snowflakes are planned for the month of November. It is November that can be considered the opening of the cold season. Forecasters assure that when the winter of 2019 comes, at that moment sub-zero temperatures will appear on the thermometer. According to preliminary data, it was revealed that the final month of autumn will become frosty and snowy. If at the beginning of the month the thermometer on the street shows zero marks, then by the middle of the same month the daily temperature environment becomes sharply negative. As for the night hours, already on the initial dates, the air temperature at night will be equal to minus 5 frosty degrees.

In connection with such circumstances, we can confidently say that the winter period will boldly declare its rights from mid-November. But autumn at this moment does not want to leave nature, so even before last days month, a severe struggle between an imperious winter and a tireless autumn is possible.

But on the calendar first day of the winter period, that is, on the 1st of December, the cold season of the year will already openly and fully enter into its legal rights. The month of December will be a real herald of frosty blizzards and sub-zero temperatures.

An accurate forecast for 2019, when winter comes to Russia, can also be given based on folk signs about the cold season.

• If September is a dry and warm month, then the early arrival of frost should not be expected.
• A huge harvest of red rowan indicates the arrival of a frosty and early winter.
• The later the leaves fall from the trees, the later you can expect the arrival of cold weather in nature.
• The late departure of cranes indicates the fact that frosts will not come to nature soon.
• If from autumn ants build large anthills, then the sign indicates the onset of severe frosts, which will last almost the entire winter period.
• Titmouse, which begin to fly up close to apartments and houses, carry quick frosts on their tails.
• If a rich harvest of mushrooms is observed in the summer, then the winter will drag on for a long time and become quite frosty, but not early.

According to a wise Russian proverb, it is necessary to worry about the coming winter since the summer. That's why many are wondering about the winter of 2017-2018 long before it starts. It's never too late to figure out what exactly to expect from the inevitable cold season. Maybe it's time for heavy snowfalls and terrible frosts, or this time three cold months will please the Russians with warm and snowless days? Well, it's time to talk about what kind of winter is expected in Russia in 2017-2018.

General forecast

It is clear that all the talk about the upcoming time period, which is still waiting and waiting, can be called purely preliminary. After all, none of the existing meteorological centers make weather forecasts so far in advance. However, it is always possible to build information on conjectural information, which, of course, cannot be called final.

According to meteorologists, the weather will be more or less stable in the upcoming winter of 2017-2018. According to long term forecast, throughout Russia, this time of year will become moderately cold, with the exception of the North-West side. The first snow will fall in early November and will linger for several weeks. In the middle part of the state, without affecting Far East or Siberia, snow cover can be seen long before the onset of the calendar winter. By the way, the first snowfalls promise to be plentiful.

December will not be too cold, although it will be replaced by an “upset” January. He will freeze Mother Russia! But until the onset of February, no one will understand that these frosts were just a saying - the main story is still ahead. A week before its farewell chord, winter will suddenly realize that spring has already managed to sit on its throne, moreover, to settle firmly there. The thaw will begin overnight, turning the whole of Russia into a floating state for several days. That's just not for nothing that winter is called harsh - it will not give up its positions so easily. As a result, for another month, the devil will be going on outside the window - the snow will suddenly fall for several hours, then it will melt, then the first spring rain may break free, after which the turn of frosts will inevitably come. And this weather will last exactly until April.

Unlike the 2016-2017 season, the described time period promises to be much more generous with precipitation. You should not wait for sunny and relatively dry weather - this time everything will go according to a more “deplorable scenario”. An exception is the period in late November and early December - after the first thaw, relative calm reigns.

Weather in December 2017

As it has already become clear, the country will enter the winter partially prepared - in November it will snow and the first frosts will begin, which will soon change relatively warm weather. Therefore, at the beginning of the first winter month no sudden temperature changes are expected. Further on the territory of the Central part of Russia, rather frosty weather will reign - up to -10 degrees in the daytime and -18 at night. In Siberia during this period it will be "relatively" warm - -18 ... -22. A similar temperature regime will last until the holidays, while before the New Year it will get a little warmer. The only exception will be Siberia, where in the daytime the thermometer will begin to steadily drop to -30 degrees.

The most significant precipitation is expected in the north of the state - large New Year's snowdrifts cannot be avoided. The southern and central regions of Russia will also be strewn with snow, but its cover should not be too large.

Weather in January 2018

The forecast for the first month of the New Year will please everyone - January will meet its adherents not with too much frost, but with increased snowfalls. From the 1st to the 5th, lower the thermometer in the daytime to -15, while at night it is expected to be -22 degrees. A little warmer in southern regions, although only a few degrees - -10 ... -17.

On the eve of Christmas, it will become noticeably colder, however, the described weather will last just a couple of days. Already on the old New Year Warm sunny weather is expected. But where without Epiphany frosts? Toward the end of the second decade of January, severe cold will come - -19 degrees in the daytime and up to -25 at night. It will be even colder in Siberia and nearby areas (which is understandable), although heavy snowfalls are not expected.

According to forecasters, closer to the end of the month are expected strong winds, driving the frosty cold behind them. For several days, all of Russia will plunge into a snowy abyss, beyond which neither the sun nor clouds will be visible. The change of the anticyclone will affect temperature regime Relative warming is expected at the end of the month.

Weather in February 2018

At the beginning of the last month, the January lull will be transferred for several days, which will be replaced literally by the end of the first decade. severe frosts. The initial warming will go unnoticed only for central regions Russia, while in Siberia the situation will remain the same. Closer to February 14, precipitation will begin, lasting several days. At the same time, you should not expect a noticeable excess of the monthly norm. In conclusion, winter will want to show all its power and strength, only it no longer has the latter - a week before the actual onset of spring, its murmuring steps will ring out all over Rus'. And then - the eternal confrontation of cold and heat for superiority. And despite the fact that the outcome is always the same, fighting for a few more snowy or cold days is a sacred thing. As a result, almost the whole of March will turn out to be like a capricious girl - frosty days will be replaced by short-term thaws or even short rains.

Results

Understanding in more detail what the winter of 2017–2018 will be like in Russia, it is worth remembering only one thing - the current forecasts of meteorologists are in fact considered very approximate. Each word is taken based on their long-term observations of the behavior of the described season in the specified territory. More accurate forecasts will be able to find out closer to the onset of the designated time of the year.
