The most touristic winter period in Stavropol is the last week December and early January. We offer you to find out what you can expect from nature in these and other days of the winter of 2018-2019 and when is the best time to plan a trip to this region.

December 2018

The last month of autumn in Stavropol will be quite warm, but at the very beginning of December, frost will replace the wet and cloudy weather. The cold snap will be severe. In just a couple of days, the temperature will drop from +15 ºС during the daytime to -14 ºС at night, which will be very acutely felt by people suffering from diseases of the cardiovascular system. Fortunately, the cold will not last long, and in the middle of the month the positive temperature will return to the region.

The first snow in Stavropol may fall at the beginning of the month, but due to the instability of the temperature regime, it will not lie for a long time. But to meet New Year in a crowded and fabulously beautiful city, it is still possible, because after the snowfall, expected in the 20th of December, sub-zero temperatures should be established.

January 2019

The beginning of the new year 2019 in Stavropol will be cold and snowy, and a strong drop in temperatures is expected at Christmas. At night, according to weather forecasts, frost can reach extreme values \u200b\u200bfor the region. But, by the middle of the month, the cold will recede, and the usual weather for the Stavropol winter will be established with positive temperatures in the daytime and night frosts.

Toward the end of January, precipitation in the form of rain and sleet is possible.

February 2019

Most of February will please with relatively warm weather with a slight plus in the daytime, but Epiphany frosts will also make themselves felt with a nighttime drop in temperature to -19 ºС between February 12 and 16.

The month will be quite snowy, but due to the constant transition of the temperature through the zero mark, the snow cover will be wet and loose, and during periods of severe frosts, ice should be expected.

The end of the calendar winter in 2019 will not coincide with the arrival in spring warm weather. The first week of March will be a logical continuation of February with night frosts and a slight plus in the daytime. Real warmth can be expected this season closer to mid-March. But winter will not give up quickly and the temperature swings will change on temperature swings throughout the month.
