Social

Head of the Russian Hydro meteorological service Roman Vilfand predicts a warm winter this year. According to him, the frosts of last year were an exception from the tendency of warming, as during the last three years the average temperature in winter has been rising for 0.9-3 degrees per year. Vilfand mentioned that this winter the temperature will be higher than the average, “Gazeta GTZ.ru” reports.

So, the Russian specialist refutes the investigations of British and Russian scientists that in a few decades the climate in Europe will become colder conditioned by the change of the direction of the Atlantic ocean streams. The supporters of this view have revealed that the warm streams of Gulfstream are getting weaker; thus “we should prepare for reduction in temperature and not warming”. By the way, the scientists have investigated the Atlantic ocean for 50 years in order to process the theory.
