Results of definition of the radiation balance and its components for Tomsk during 2004–2005 are presented. It is shown that the radiation balance of Tomsk is mainly positive during a year, and has negative values only from November to January. The maximum is observed in June; it made 176 W/m2 in 2004 and 167 W/m2 in 2005. The minimum is observed in December; it made –26 W/m2 in 2004 and –41 W/m2 in 2005.
