Step 1
Krasnoyarsk is located in a zone of temperate, sharply continental climate, which is characterized by cold winters and hot summers with low precipitation. The Yenisei, which does not freeze in the cold season, and the nearby Krasnoyarsk reservoir contribute to climate mitigation in the city. However, day and night temperature drops, regardless of the season, can reach 20 ° C.
Step 2
The warmest in Krasnoyarsk is in July, the average temperature this month is +16, 1 ° C, and the coldest in January (-28, 9 ° C). Temperature records in the city were recorded in July 2002 (+36.5 ° C) and in January 1931 (-52.8 ° C). The greatest amount of precipitation falls in Krasnoyarsk in November-December (snow) and in May (rain). Annual precipitation is 465 mm.

In February, it gradually begins to warm, the average temperature rises from -27 to -22 ° C, and in March - from -18 ° C to -10 ° C.
Step 4
From April, when spring comes, to May, the temperature gradually rises from 0 ° C to + 10 ° C, the snow cover melts. Summer actually begins only by the end of June, with average temperatures ranging from + 12 ° C to + 16 ° C.

Step 6
In recent years, meteorologists have observed a gradual change in the climate in Krasnoyarsk, which is characterized by an increase in the average air temperature and an increase in the amount of precipitation. So, if we compare the periods 1981-2011. and 1971-2000, then recently the average temperature in winter has dropped by 0.6 degrees, and in summer - has increased by 0.2 degrees.
