Abstract
The initial stage of the drought usually begins with low-activity high anticyclones and is followed by continuous (several
weeks to 2-3 months) high temperatures and low rainfalls. As a result, the soil moisture reserve decreases, the high
temperature gradually decreases in humidity, increase potential evaporation, and the threat to agricultural crops
increases. The long-timedroughts (several years) even lead to the migration of the population. In this regard, it is
undeniable that the role of the Azores and Siberian maximums in the activation of hydrometeorological anomalies in
Azerbaijan has recently increased
