Emergency warning

      Dear citizens! From the Federal State Budgetary Institution "Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring of the Republic of Tatarstan" has come: Consultation – warning about the intensity of meteorological phenomena from 00:00 to 18:00 on June 10, 2026. On June 10, 2026, in the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan, the following is expected in places: - fog at night and in the morning; - thunderstorms during the day, short-term wind gusts of 15-17 m/s. The Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the Republic of Tatarstan recommends: In fog: If you notice thickening fog while outdoors, take measures to avoid losing orientation in the forest or on the water body. 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 conditions occur with vehicles moving ahead. It is important to consider that fog reduces visibility – it is advisable to increase the usual distance and reduce speed. Avoid sudden braking: if you need to stop, slow down gradually. 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 trips. When driving in poor visibility conditions, avoid unnecessary lane changes, overtaking, and passing. Avoid sudden braking: if you need to stop, slow down gradually. Press the brake pedal several times to signal drivers of vehicles behind you. If possible, avoid trips and refrain from long walks in nature. Drivers: 1. When driving 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, slow down gradually; 4. Press the brake pedal several times to signal drivers of vehicles behind you; 5. All optics must be in working condition; 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 advised 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 need 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 clothing. In case of strong winds: 1. We recommend limiting going outside and staying indoors. It is important not to leave children unattended. 2. If strong wind catches you outside, we recommend seeking 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 next to 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, as well as roofing elements and decorative plaster blown 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 may fall outside should be removed from balconies and loggias. 8. Stay as far away from windows in residential or working premises as possible. If possible, refrain from long-distance trips. Pedestrians are advised to cross the street only at designated pedestrian crossings. Do not run across the road in front of moving vehicles, as the braking distance of a vehicle significantly increases due to slippery road surfaces. Move only against the flow of traffic. Use a high-visibility vest or attach reflective elements to clothing. Photo from the archive. In case of any trouble, you can always call the single emergency services number – "112".
