It is very cold and often the tempreture drops below 0 degrees celcius. It can get as cold as -10-15, so make sure you have the following:
-warm socks (knit wool socks, available at Gap's fall collections most years). You may need to put two pairs on, so buy many
-gloves/mittens (wool or with fleece inside)
-boots (preferably with fur inside. sneakers during winter time can only do in NYC, do not attempt in Moscow!)
-hat (also wool or fleece, but you can survive wearing a baseball cap and ear-muffs)
-warm jacket (goose dawn or fur inside). You may want to buy one that covers your butt, seriously.
-sweaters (once again, wool sweaters are the best. fleece sweatshirts can be a nice alternative as well)
-scarf
-pants (if you're a girl, try to forget about skirts while you're there. if you're a guy-disregard the above :)).
Just a note, all of these are important. Last time I was in Moscow (late November-early December 2005) I had all of the above except for a hat thinking that putting a jacket hood on from time to time would suffice. Well, no, it did not. I caught a terrible cold and was sneezing all the way back to U.S.A.

the climate in Russia during December isn't precisely what you may call tropical. you may assume heavy snowfalls from November onwards by until spring. the component is human beings there are used to it and permit for it and places which includes Moscow and St Petersburg on no account relatively complication too lots as they have relatively sturdy infrastructure to be waiting to administration. those cities are remarkable during the wintry climate and are relatively worth a bypass to at that factor of twelve months. merely be advantageous you're taking heat clothing

Unimaginably cold. I brought some boots there that are lined with sheepskin, I have never been cold outside anywhere since.
Enjoy. It is a fantastic place, but be careful as the crime rate is fairly high, even amoungst the police.

Dasha answered pretty good.
In addition:
Late December often is very-very cold. The temperature in Moscow may sharply drop below -30C, rarely -50C. These days you'd better stay at home, or else...
