Forecaster predicted heavy rains in several regions of Russia
Heavy rains in September are most likely along the trajectory of cyclones that may pass through St. Petersburg, Arkhangelsk, the Urals, the south of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, Tuva, Khakassia, Baikal and further to the Amur. In addition, precipitation may increase in the Far East due to the influence of typhoons coming out of the Pacific Ocean. Anatoly Vasilyevich Tsygankov, head of the Russian Hydrometeorological Service's crisis Management Department, told Izvestia about this.
"This year, an extensive Siberian anticyclone remained over a significant part of Siberia for almost the entire summer. Cyclones with fronts and precipitation passed around this area of high pressure," the expert noted.
In the Caucasus, according to him, the combination of warm sea, cold air and mountains has repeatedly led to active rains. Speaking about St. Petersburg, Tsygankov noted that cyclones coming from the North Atlantic through the Gulf Stream are possible there in September.
"This year, cyclones more often followed a northern trajectory: through St. Petersburg and Arkhangelsk, then towards Khanty-Mansiysk, Perm and Tyumen, then through the Urals, south of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, through Tuva, Khakassia, Baikal and further along the Amur. Most likely, a similar pattern will continue in September. It is along this trajectory that rains are most likely," Tsygankov explained.
The weather forecaster singled out the Far East separately. In Primorye, Sakhalin, the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka, as well as in the Sea of Okhotsk, typhoons affect the weather. They come out of the Pacific Ocean, go through the Philippines to China or Japan, weaken there, but then they can affect the Russian regions. Therefore, it also rains there in September.
