As Mikhail Vronskikh, scientific adviser at the National Center for Seed Research and Production, notes in this regard, average daily temperatures over a relatively long period (a month) are more important for the well-being of people and animals, while the condition of cultivated plants can be greatly affected by weather extremes even over a very short period of time. Meanwhile, the EU information platforms forecast for July-August private increase of daily air temperature in a number of countries in Southern Europe above 40 degrees Celsius.
At the same time, according to Mikhail Vronskikh, moisture deficit is likely to increase in the second month of summer. In June, the precipitation deficit in RM amounted to about 50-60 mm.
