In the near future, temperatures below zero are expected in Karelia, southern Siberia, the Urals and the northeast of the Volga region, said Roman Wilfand, scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center.

- Autumn has already begun on European territory, which means that temperatures in continental regions will drop. Now, when cold air masses come from the north, but the sun can no longer damp (compensate - ed.) This process. The energy of the sun is already significantly decreasing, - RIA Novosti quotes the words of Wilfand.

Temperatures in the east of the European part of the country will drop to minus two degrees. The same weather is expected in the Sverdlovsk, Perm, Chelyabinsk regions, in the northeast of the Volga region, in the south of the Urals, in the Volga region.

- There will be frosts in the south of Siberia: in the mountains of Transbaikalia, as well as in the mountainous regions of the Irkutsk region (in the northeast), - Wilfand said, adding that frosts are expected in the Kostroma region.

The reason for the low temperatures is an anticyclone that forms over the center of the European territory of the Russian Federation and provides an influx of cold masses along the periphery.

Earlier, Alexey Kokorin, director of the Climate and Energy Program of the World Wildlife Fund of Russia, said that autumn would come to Russia later than usual.
