In the summer of 2021, extensive forest fires could be expected in Siberia, the Far East and the Urals. In these regions, forests alternate with fields, logging is underway in the taiga, and workers both smoke and light campfires. Naturally, it is impossible to predict the scale of the fires. Although the coming summer is expected to be cooler in a large part of Russia's regions compared to recent years, it will still be warmer than the climatic norm.
