We are about to be confronted with the dangers of deep winter."
And by the end of November Soviets put Siberian resevs in.
I belive if Barbarossa did start 2 weeks earlier and Germans would let themself be lured in street fighting in Moscow - axis defeat in Battle fo Moscow would've been even more devastating.
