Roman Vilfand put an end to the question of whether there will be snow for the New Year

The fall of 2024 has already managed to surprise Russians with many unexpected events.

September, although warm, pleased residents with snow at the end of the month. Snowfalls affected not only the northern and eastern regions, but also the southern regions of Siberia, which was a real surprise for local residents.

Where has it snowed already?

Unusual autumn snowfalls are observed in the North-West and North-East of Russia. In the Irkutsk region, the first snow covers have already formed and covered the ground. Even in the southern regions, the snow created a wintry atmosphere, which caused a lot of surprise. Roman Vilfand, scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia, noted that it is still difficult to predict whether the snow will remain or melt with warming, but there is a possibility that it will remain in some places until winter.
