Residents of southern Russia should wait with the change from winter tires to summer tires on their car. It is reported that the best time for this will be the period after April 5. The Muscovites, on the other hand, are expected to change their tires after April 10. Such advice was given by Roman Vilfand, scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia.
“In the south of Russia, after the 5th it is already possible to change shoes, in Moscow it is not advisable before April 10,” he told RIA Novosti.
He also reminded that the tire change should be carried out if at least for five days the air temperature at night did not fall below 5 degrees above zero.
