Scientists usually don’t really like to say the word “anomaly,” but not this year.

Roman Vilfand, scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia: “The anomaly is noticeable and bright. It is visible even on maps. The entire territory of the country is painted with a thick, bright crimson color.”

In Krasnoyarsk in January brown bears come out of hibernation. Mimosa in Sochi in 2017 bloomed in March. In 2018 already in February, in 2020 in early January. And in the Moscow region there were mushrooms. If the weather produces such record-breaking graphs, the question arises: what will happen in the summer and autumn? What will happen to the fields, to the harvest?

Yuri Kosovan, Advisor to the Minister of Agriculture of the Russian Federation: “We do not see any concerns in this situation. The only negative is if the temperatures drop sharply into the negative and persist for two weeks.”

In other words, this year it so happened that agriculture nothing threatens except the onset of the usual winter. In general, in practice there are not many advantages from climate change. For example, in the Krasnoyarsk Territory a third of the ice routes are closed. The solid layer of ice is less than 20 centimeters, and to open the crossing, you need twice as thick. Winter according to the calendar and geography is Siberian, the weather in fact is Krasnodar, the thermometer sometimes turns positive. Came from this big water, in winter we have to build dams to save villages from floods.

Problems also came where they were not expected at all - in the economy. The weather has hit trade.

Mikhail Burmistrov, CEO information and consulting agency: “We see a global climate impact on the market, which has led to the fact that winter clothes and shoes are practically not sold.”

The market sank by 100 billion rubles. And that's just what concerns clothes and shoes. The Earth's average global surface temperature in 2019 was the second warmest since records began in 1880, according to scientists. Are there really such warm winters never happened in human history? The climatologist answers this question in poetry.

Andrey Kiselev, presenter Researcher Main Geophysical Observatory named after. A.I. Voeykova: “You can remember our classic Pushkin: “That year autumn weather I stood in the yard for a long time, waiting for winter, waiting for nature. Snow fell only on the third night in January."

This winter in Russia is warmer than usual due to the transfer of Atlantic air to us. This happens extremely rarely, and even more rarely lasts so long. And a powerful anticyclone, usually responsible for our winter, did not form this year.

Alexey Sokov, Director of the Institute of Oceanology named after. P. P. Shirshov RAS: “We cannot give an unambiguous answer to what is happening outside the window. There is an anomaly, yes. Nobody knows why it happens. Everyone easily explains what just happened, but the most main question: what will happen?
