[Regnum] The air temperature in the Moscow region on the night of March 24 will drop to minus 11 degrees in some places, in Moscow it will be warmer — up to minus 3–5 degrees. This was reported to TASS on March 23 bythe scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center Roman Vilfand.
According to the meteorologist, such weather conditions are due to the fact that the capital is under the influence of an anticyclone, the center of which is close to the region.
He also noted that there would be intense cooling of the underlying surface at night, and promised Muscovites “a very frosty night.”
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on March 23, leading specialist of the Phobos weather center Mikhail Leus reported a new daily record for atmospheric pressure in Moscow. In the morning, it reached 764.2 mm Hg, which is higher than the 1943 figures.
On March 22, Leus said that up to 20% of the monthly precipitation norm could fall in Moscow in the last week of the month. According to him, no rain or snow is expected on Monday, March 24. At night, the air temperature will drop to -1…-3 °C, and during the day the air will warm up to +11…+13 °C.
The current year, 2025, may go down in history as one of the warmest in history. This was reported by the scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia Roman Vilfand.
"There is a possibility that 2025 will be among the top five warmest years. This is due to the fact that recent years have become increasingly warmer under the influence of increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases. Unfortunately, we have not yet managed to stabilize this process," TASS quotes Vilfand as saying.
In addition, the weather is also affected by increased ocean temperatures, which affects the state of the atmosphere: the heat transferred from the oceans contributes to an increase in air temperature, the meteorologist explained.
At the same time, according to the weather forecaster, the period of winter time in Russia may be shortened. However, winter in Russia will definitely be "until the end of this century," Vilfand assured.

[Regnum] Russian fighters secretly entered the rear of the Ukrainian military in the Donetsk direction and took prisoners. This was reported on March 23 by the RT TV channel, citing attack aircraft of the "South" group of troops of the Russian Armed Forces.
It is noted that six soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) were killed during the operation. Another four surrendered, but one of them was eliminated by his own people: he came under Ukrainian mortar fire.
"Four of us came out - that's it, we started to lead them out of the forest plantation, out of their dugout. And their mortar started to fire at us, the cassettes started to fire. One of them died. And three of them - we led them out, brought them to the dugout," said one of the Russian soldiers.
As reported by Regnum News Agency, on March 10, the commander of the Akhmat special forces, Lieutenant General Apti Alaudinov, published his conversation with the fighters before the start of Operation Potok, who crawled several kilometers along a gas pipeline to the rear of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Sudzhansky District of the Kursk Region, on his Telegram channel. According to him, the unique operation will be included not only in training manuals for special services, but also in Russian history textbooks.
Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Army General Valery Gerasimov, said on March 12 that Operation Potok (Pipe) came as a complete surprise to the Ukrainian army. During it, over 600 Russian soldiers traveled about 15 km through a pipe and reached deep behind enemy lines.
On March 13, the Akhmat special forces soldiers who took part in Operation Potok told the editor-in-chief of the Regnum news agency, Marina Akhmedova, that some of the soldiers began to hallucinate in the pipe. At the same time, the Russian soldiers supported each other, and it was morally easier for them to go.
On March 17, the press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, said that the head of state, Vladimir Putin, had spoken with the participants of Operation Potok. They will be awarded after the relevant presentations by the Russian Defense Ministry, the Kremlin representative added.
The video shows a broken column of armored vehicles of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the Sudzha-Guyevo-Gornali highway, one of the most important supply arteries of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group in the Kursk region.
