The Ministry of Emergency Situations warned Nizhny Novgorod residents about heavy rains on June 13-14.

      June 13, 2026 15:37 Society According to meteorological services, a significant deterioration in weather is expected in the Nizhny Novgorod region and Nizhny Novgorod in the next 1-3 hours on June 13. Heavy precipitation is forecasted, which may continue throughout the night of June 14. In this regard, the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the Nizhny Novgorod region appeals to residents and guests of the region to take precautions. If you plan to travel by personal vehicle, it is recommended to reduce speed due to decreased visibility on the roads, softening of the shoulders and unpaved surfaces, as well as increased slipperiness, which may lead to skidding and loss of control over the vehicle. It is especially important to avoid trips through low-lying areas where the risk of flooding and the formation of deep puddles is highest. In case of emergencies, please contact the appropriate emergency response services. We remind you that utility services have already begun preparations for the bad weather. The most intense rains, according to preliminary forecasts, are expected on June 16, and temporary water accumulation may occur in certain areas of the street and road network. The Department of Transport and Road Management of Nizhny Novgorod reported that they are already preparing pumping equipment for adverse conditions. If necessary, it will be able to operate around the clock. In addition, in places where flooding is most frequently recorded, a constant duty of special vehicles will be organized.
