The summer heat that kicked off the week in St. Petersburg will fade into cooler temperatures for Easter weekend. Orthodox Christians will celebrate Easter on April 20 amid chillier weather.
St. Petersburg Hydrometeorological Center chief Alexander Kolesov predicts temperatures will start dropping on Thursday. April 17 will see highs reach only 13-15 degrees Celsius. The actual temperature might dip even lower depending on cloud cover. Easter Sunday brings another temperature drop with daytime readings expected around 10-12 degrees Celsius. Rain remains a strong possibility during the holiday.
Kolesov told TASS that an atmospheric front lingers over the region. This system makes cooler temperatures almost certain with a high chance of precipitation throughout the weekend. Weather forecaster Alexander Shuvalov has already shared predictions for the upcoming May holidays as residents look ahead to spring celebrations.
