The first week of calendar autumn will delight St. Petersburg residents with warm weather, by September standards. The first half of the week is expected to be particularly comfortable, mostly sunny and dry, when a ridge of high pressure from the north will be responsible for shaping the weather pattern — though we should not forget about cool nights.
Starting Thursday, control of the weather will shift to a cyclone from the west, which will bring clouds and pockets of rain to the region, but it will not get colder.
