Anticipated Heatwave in Yakutia by Vilfand
The Central Federal District regions of Oryol, Bryansk, Lipetsk, Tambov, Kursk, Belgorod, and Voronezh are expected to experience exceptionally high temperatures, with temperatures ranging from plus 30 to 35 degrees, according to recent forecasts. These predicted temperatures are expected to exceed the climatic norm by 6-9 degrees.
Elsewhere in Russia, Yakutia is also forecasted to experience a heatwave, with temperatures expected to reach plus 24 to 28 degrees. The temperatures in Yakutia are anticipated to be 5-8 degrees above normal, adding to the unusual heat across the country.
However, it's important to note that while Yakutia typically has a dry climate with warm summer months, a heatwave is not automatically implied. Current weather data for Yakutsk, the regional capital, on August 14, 2025, shows mild temperatures around 20 °C with no indication of extreme heat.
While no credible sources from the recent week explicitly mention a heatwave or forecast anomalously high temperatures or specific affected regions in Yakutia through August 25, 2025, it's always a good idea to consult regional weather agencies or meteorological services for the latest forecasts.
Unusually high air temperatures are forecasted in nine regions of Russia until August 25, making it crucial for residents to take precautions against the heat. Stay hydrated, seek shade during the hottest parts of the day, and check on vulnerable neighbours and family members.
As the situation develops, we will continue to monitor and report on any updates regarding the heatwave in Yakutia and other affected regions in Russia.
In several parts of Russia, the field of environmental science, particularly weather forecasting, indicates a heatwave in Yakutia, with temperatures predicted to reach between plus 24 to 28 degrees, which is 5-8 degrees above the normal climate. Simultaneously, many regions in the Central Federal District, including Oryol, Bryansk, Lipetsk, Tambov, Kursk, Belgorod, and Voronezh, are expected to have exceptionally high temperatures ranging from plus 30 to 35 degrees, making it essential for the public to follow heat precautions.
