The investigation stated that there were discrepancies between the weather reports that the crew had received before the flight and the actual weather condition during the flight. The initial reports, marked at 19:10 and 19:30 local time, stated that the condition would be marginal, with a cloud base at roughly 130–140 m and a visibility of 2,100 m, slightly above the required minimum for a safe landing. The forecast indicated that the weather would remain the same for the remainder of the flight. However, when the crew of Flight 9605 was approaching Petrozavodsk, the weather had drastically deteriorated.
Wrong weather information

Before taking off, the weather data had actually been updated by the local meteorological office; however, this information was not immediately relayed to the crew. They had left the office earlier just before it got updated, and in order to receive the recent report, then they had to request it via radio. Had they received the report right before leaving the office, Captain Fyodorov would've likely not departed from Moscow.
