Bishkek, March 28 / Kabar /. European climatologists recognized 2017 as the Year of catastrophes, representative of the Department of Monitoring and Forecasting of Emergency Situations of the Ministry of Emergency Situations Amanbai Sarnogoyev told at Kabar Agency.

"The trouble is that the regime of winds and precipitation is changing. There was such a situation in 1994, when the snow fell on the unfrozen land, which after melting penetrated into the ground and caused a landslide. Last year, due to the cold spring and early summer, the snow line moved up to 3.5 thousand meters in height and there remained an ice. If the snowmelt mode is normal, that is, in August more than 4 thousand meters will melt, there are breakthroughs in the high mountain lakes. If the snowmelt regime is uneven, the situation in 1998 may repeat, when 1200 houses were flooded in Suzak region," he said.
