After a short period of heat in the metropolitan area, a change of weather is again expected. If during the day of May 12 quite high temperatures are still possible, then on the night of Wednesday, May 13, the indicators will begin to drop.

“The nature of the weather will change because a cold atmospheric front is coming to Moscow. With him we are waiting for thunderstorms and showers of rain. In some places hail and heavy wind are possible. Tomorrow morning, the temperature in the city will already drop to +5 ... + 7 ° С, ”said Tatyana Pozdnyakova, chief specialist of the Moscow Meteoburo, in an interview with RT.

According to weather forecasters of the Hydrometeorological Center, the readings of thermometers per day can drop by 15 degrees, it will become much colder at night. According to the website of the forecast center, "the average daily temperature will lag behind the norm by an average of 5 ° C."

“That is, if yesterday (May 11 - RT ) there was almost summer temperature, then in a day we will return almost to the end of April,” Pozdnyakova noted.

According to her, in the coming days the flow of cold air will continue, therefore, "until the end of the working week, the temperature will remain significantly below the climatic norm." On Friday, May 15, in Moscow and the region by day it is expected about +11 ... + 13 ° С.

As the chief specialist of the Moscow Meteoburo emphasized, a "very deep cyclone" is being formed, which will be located above the Barents Sea. It will affect almost the entire European territory of Russia, therefore, cooling is also expected there. 

Earlier, the leading specialist of the Phobos weather center Alexander Sinenkov explained to TASS that a decrease in temperature in southern Russia is expected on May 14-15.

“The cold front, which will pass through Moscow on Wednesday night (May 13 - RT), will reach the regions of the south of the country in a day or two. But if in Moscow it gets colder by 10 degrees, then for southerners the air temperature will drop by 4-5 degrees, ”Sinenkov noted.

According to the forecast of Phobos, in the southern regions it will rain, in places showers, heavy thunderstorms are not expected. Quite cold nights will be established, but without frost.

According to the press secretary of the West Siberian Administration for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring Renad Yagudin, this is "abnormally hot weather." In an interview with TASS, he said that such a forecast increases the risk of fires primarily in the Novosibirsk Region and Altai Territory, where the air warms up above + 30 ° С. He also added that a slight decrease in temperature in this region is possible on May 15, when it rains.

Villefand emphasized that cooling will occur gradually. According to the forecast of the Hydrometeorological Center, at first the indicators will decrease in Transbaikalia and the Irkutsk region. At night, the thermometer columns can drop to 0 ° C. 

Earlier, the scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center of the Russian Federation told Rossiyskaya Gazeta that in the summer, weather heterogeneity would remain on the territory of Russia. 

“We expect that the summer will be warm, but heterogeneous - with periods of warming and cooling,” the weather forecaster explained.

According to the preliminary long-term forecast of the Hydrometeorological Center, in June in the European part of Russia the temperature will remain within normal limits, but in the north of the Ural and Siberian districts, in Tuva, as well as in the east of the Southern and North Caucasian federal districts, average monthly rates may be higher than normal.
