Forecast predicts heavy hailfall in Sochi and Sirius
The Black Sea region is bracing for a storm starting from the evening of September 18 and continuing until September 19. This has prompted a warning for adverse weather conditions in Sochi, and residents and guests are advised to stay cautious.
According to the forecast, wave heights may reach two to three meters with swell from the southwest. This could lead to rough seas, and for the safety of all, water activities are advised against. Beaches will operate based on actual weather conditions.
In addition to the rough seas, heavy rain, thunderstorms, hail, and gusty winds up to 20 meters per second are expected. The storm could result in sea roughness increasing to 4-5 points, a significant increase from normal conditions.
The storm also poses a risk of landslides in the mountains, and residents and guests are urged to be vigilant. In case of an emergency, the number to call is 112.
Waterspouts may form in the Black Sea area, from Magri to Veseloy. This is another potential hazard that residents and guests should be aware of.
River levels may rise rapidly in some areas, and some locations may reach unfavourable marks due to the rising river levels. It is important to stay informed about the situation, and updates can be found on Telegram, VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, and YouTube.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, all services in the resort are operating in enhanced mode to ensure the safety and comfort of residents and guests. Residents and guests are reminded to stay attentive and cautious during this period.
