Sochi braces for a dramatic winter weather shift by December 11

A sharp change in weather is heading for Sochi this week. A low-pressure system over the Black Sea will bring colder temperatures, rain, and even snow to higher ground by December 11. Residents and visitors should prepare for a sudden drop in warmth.

The week will start with mostly cloudy skies and rain across Sochi. Daytime highs will fall from a mild +15°C to just +4°C by the weekend. Overnight, temperatures could drop as low as –6°C, with frost forming in mountainous areas.

The upcoming cold snap will mark a noticeable shift from recent autumn weather. Snow in the mountains and near-freezing lows will likely affect travel and outdoor activities. Residents are advised to check updates as the system moves in.
