What is it about?
The study is a comparative analysis of the characteristics of air temperature and atmospheric precipitations in winter seasons from the WMO reference periods (1961 - 1990, 1981 – 2010) compared with last 7 years (2010 – 2016).

Why is it important?
In the first decade of the 21st century, the territory of Moldavia has faced with unprecedented sequence of very warm periods and very moist and rainy periods, some of them surpassing the records of the entire period of meteorological observations.
Perspectives
The paper is based primarily on the factual material represented by continually measured data of air temperature and atmospheric precipitations by the 8 weather stations located in Botoșani, Suceava, Iași, Piatra Neamț, Bacău, Vaslui, Bârlad and Galați, during the winter seasons in the 1961- 2016 period. The WMO reference periods (1961-1990; 1981-2010) compared with last 7 years , the statistical-mathematical processing of the climatic data and their graphical representation are the methods through which the corpus of data collected from the weather stations measurements has been developed. I hope this article makes the regies, companies and directions subordinated to the local and regional authorities to adapt to the new challenge of changes in local or regional climat.
