The rivers overflowed their banks three months earlier than usual. Forecaster Shuvalov told Mash that warm weather and December snowfalls are to blame.
The risk zone is Kurgan, Tyumen regions and part of Omsk. Due to overflowing reservoirs in northern Kazakhstan. Which can start dumping water right on Tyumen. A record overflow level was recorded there – 138.07 meters. Excess water is discharged into turbines daily in a volume of 2 million 315 thousand cubic meters.
