Cloudy skies and gradual warming forecast for Moscow and surrounding areas

On March 20, residents of Moscow can expect a cloudy day with no precipitation, according to the Chief Specialist for Phobos Weather Center, who shared these details via the Weather from the Chief telegraph channel. The forecast notes a slight drop in atmospheric pressure that will bring more cloud cover, though the day should remain dry overall. In some locations, a touch of sleet may appear at the start of the day, but any precipitation is not anticipated to persist.

Temperature expectations place the daytime high in Moscow between 5 and 7 degrees Celsius, while the Moscow region could see a range from 3 to 8 degrees. A southwest wind will move at speeds of 2 to 7 meters per second. Atmospheric pressure is predicted to lower to about 747 millimeters of mercury, a figure that aligns with typical seasonal values. Solar activity is described as moderate and the geomagnetic field shows instability, according to the same meteorologist.

The forecast for March 21 suggests no major precipitation is expected, with temperatures rising by a few degrees relative to March 20. This mild warming trend continues the gradual shift toward warmer spring conditions.

Additionally, Evgeny Tishkovets, a veteran meteorologist who previously led the Phobos weather team, notes that the current pattern points toward a stretch of warmer weather for Muscovites. The outlook calls for temperature increases between three and eight degrees above normal throughout the week, with the potential to reach up to ten degrees on Thursday, March 23. These assessments reflect expert interpretation of atmospheric data, cloud patterns, and regional climate tendencies for the capital and surrounding districts.

In summary, a largely dry and cool start gives way to a notable warming trend as the week progresses, accompanied by typical spring wind shifts and modest atmospheric pressure changes. For residents planning outdoor activities, this period offers opportunities to enjoy milder days after a chilly spell, with attention to overnight temperatures and the possibility of early-morning frost in outlying areas. The weather outlook remains subject to minor fluctuations as new data becomes available, and updates will reflect any shifts in cloud cover, precipitation risk, and wind behavior.
