Moscow Heat Ahead: Friday Warmup and Weekend Cooling

Forecasts for Moscow indicate a significant warm spell coming on Friday, with temperatures climbing into the mid-20s Celsius. Forecasters from the Hydrometeorological Center of the Russian Federation project daytime highs around +23 to +25°C. As evening approaches, temperatures are expected to ease, but the capital could still feel a gentle heat continuing into the night, with values hovering near +11°C as Saturday begins. The overall trend points to a clear, sunlit day with light, variable winds that could provide a subtle relief from the heat, with westerly breezes carrying speeds of about 5 to 10 meters per second at times. People out and about should plan accordingly, especially when engaging in outdoor activities during peak sun hours. A brief cool-down is anticipated overnight into Saturday, setting the stage for a fresher morning while maintaining enough warmth to enjoy outdoor experiences if one layers properly and stays hydrated.
