[Regnum] Frosts are expected in the Moscow region throughout the first week of January, with temperatures dropping to minus 25 degrees. This was announced on January 1 by Tatyana Pozdnyakova , chief specialist of the Moscow Meteorological Bureau .

She explained that the region remains under the influence of the ultrapolar invasion. In general, no precipitation is expected on January 2 and 3. At night on January 3 and 4 the temperature will drop to -22... -27 degrees.

β€œIn Moscow it’s about -23... -25, although on the outskirts it may be lower,” Pozdnyakova told RIA Novosti .

On the day of January 4 it will be –21… –23 degrees, which is 14–15 degrees below the climate norm. In the first five days of January, this happens extremely rarely, the forecaster added.

Then, according to her, it will become a little warmer due to a cyclone passing through the southern part of the region. This means that on January 5 and 6 the frosts will remain, but will be less severe. During the daytime it is expected to be -15... -20 degrees.

As Regnum reported, on January 1, an orange level of weather danger was declared in Moscow and the Moscow region due to severe frosts . The warning will be in effect until the morning of January 5, the average daily temperature is expected to be 7–12 Β°C below the climate norm. In addition, until the morning of January 3, a yellow weather alert level is in effect in the capital region due to severe icy conditions on roads and sidewalks.
