Emergency warning for June 1, 2026.

      Consultation – warning about the intensity of meteorological phenomena from 6 PM on May 31 to 6 PM on June 1, 2026.

      On June 1, 2026, in the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan, the following is expected in places:

      - Fog at night and in the morning (including in Kazan);

      - Thunderstorm during the day, with a brief increase in wind speed up to 15-17 m/s (up to 15 m/s in Kazan).

      The Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the Republic of Tatarstan recommends:

      During a thunderstorm:

      If you are caught in a thunderstorm while riding a bicycle or motorcycle, be sure to stop and wait out the storm at a distance of about 30 meters from your vehicle. It is not advisable to continue driving a car, as disruptions in electronic systems are possible. You should stop, close the car windows, and wait out the bad weather.

      If you are in an open area during a thunderstorm, it is recommended to lie on the ground (on sandy or rocky soil), preferably in a low area. It is important that there is no river, lake, or pond nearby, as water is a good conductor, and a lightning strike can spread within a radius of 100 meters from a body of water.

      Drivers should be extremely attentive while driving.

      Pedestrians should exercise increased caution when crossing highways and when near them.

      If possible, refrain from long-distance travel.

      During strong winds:

      1. It is recommended to limit going outside, stay indoors. It is important not to leave children unattended.

      2. If strong wind catches you outside, it is recommended to take shelter in underground passages or building entrances. Do not hide from strong winds near building walls, as roofing materials may fall from roofs. This also applies to public transport stops and unfinished buildings.

      3. Stay away from billboards, signs, traffic signs, and power lines.

      4. Do not stay near large trees, and do not park vehicles near them – broken branches can pose a significant danger.

      5. It is deadly to stand under power lines and approach downed power lines during strong winds.

      6. Falling glass from upper floors and roofing elements and decorative plaster torn off by the wind can pose a danger. This threat increases near buildings under construction or renovation.

      7. All windows in houses must be tightly closed, and items that could fall outside should be removed from balconies and loggias.

      8. Stay as far away from windows in residential or work premises as possible.

      If possible, refrain from long-distance travel.

      Pedestrians are recommended to cross the street only at designated pedestrian crossings. Do not run across the road in front of moving vehicles, as the stopping distance of a car significantly increases due to slippery road surfaces. Move only against the flow of traffic. Use a high-visibility vest or attach reflective elements to your clothing.

      In fog:

      If you notice fog thickening while outdoors, take measures to avoid losing orientation in the forest or on the water. Fog poses a danger to all road users. When driving in fog, refrain from unnecessary lane changes, overtaking, and passing. Most traffic accidents in fog occur with vehicles moving ahead. It is important to consider that fog obscures distance – it is advisable to increase the usual distance and reduce speed.

      Avoid sudden braking: if you need to stop, reduce speed smoothly. Press the brake pedal several times to signal drivers of vehicles behind you. Fatigue increases when driving in fog, so caution is essential.

      If possible, refrain from long-distance travel.

      When driving a car in poor visibility conditions, refrain from unnecessary lane changes, overtaking, and passing.

      Avoid sudden braking: if you need to stop, reduce speed smoothly. Press the brake pedal several times to signal drivers of vehicles behind you.

      If possible, avoid trips and refrain from long walks in nature.

      To drivers:

      1. When driving a car in these conditions, refrain from unnecessary lane changes, overtaking, and passing.

      2. Pay attention to the technical condition of the vehicle, especially the braking system and tire condition;

      3. Avoid sudden braking; if you need to stop, reduce speed smoothly;

      4. Press the brake pedal several times to signal drivers of vehicles behind you;

      5. All lights must be in working order;

      6. Drive at a speed that ensures safety in busy traffic areas, near schools, at intersections and bridges, as well as on turns and descents.

      Pedestrians are recommended to:

      1. Be extremely attentive when crossing streets and roads;

      2. Cross the street only at designated pedestrian crossings, remembering that due to insufficient visibility and slippery road surfaces, drivers require more time to stop their vehicles.

      3. Use, if possible, only overground or underground pedestrian crossings to cross the roadway;

      4. Do not run across the road in front of moving vehicles;

      5. Move only against the flow of traffic;

      6. Use a high-visibility vest or attach reflective elements to your clothing.
