A weather forecast, or a scientific assumption about what natural changes are expected in the near future, allows you to prepare in advance for possible natural disasters, calculate the time of agricultural work, or simply make plans for a vacation. Forecasters recommend finding out the weather a maximum of ten days in advance: for example, it is best to look at the forecast for June at the end of May.
Instructions
Step 1
Contact the media. As a rule, the weather forecast for the week is published in any socio-political or entertainment newspaper. Also, the data of the Hydrometeorological Center - the Hydrometeorological Research Center of the Russian Federation - are broadcast by federal channels every night after the news block.
Step 2
Go to specialized sites on the Internet: the most famous "providers" of weather information are the official website of the Hydrometeorological Center and Gismeteo. All major Runet search engines have their own sections of the meteorological service: Yandex, Mail.ru, Rambler and so on. Keep in mind that the forecast for the next three days is considered the most accurate, so it is better to watch what the weather will be in June in the first days of this month or in the last days of May. Long-term forecast may not be correct due to a sudden change in cyclone or atmospheric front.
Step 3
Study folk signs. According to them, in June there will be constant rains with thunderstorms, if in December last year there was heavy sleet and there were blizzards. Warm December usually turns into a hot, sultry first month of summer. The peasants also considered the March weather a harbinger of June: if March was dry, without precipitation and frost, then you can expect a June drought. In contrast, the morning frost in March is likely to turn into rains in June, exactly 90 days later.
Step 4
Observe natural phenomena. If in the morning in June it is stuffy outside and smells of grass or honeysuckle, and the water in the reservoirs is unusually clear, it will probably rain in the evening. Abundant dew in the morning portends heat, as does the morning fog on the water. Gray sky in the morning - for good weather in the afternoon, red setting sun - for the subsequent drought. Good, even weather, according to the signs, portends daytime cumulus clouds, disappearing in the evening.
Step 5
Try to learn about the weather in June by the behavior of birds, insects and fish. Even flowers can serve as predictors: if the flower petals of water lilies, violets and buttercups are open, the weather is expected to be good. A fish playing in the setting sun, that is, splashing and jumping out of the water, also portends clear weather the next day. When it rains soon, the swallows begin to fly low above the ground, while spiders and dragonflies seem to disappear.
