Wednesday, April 14, became the last day in Moscow for the near future, which was marked by a record high temperature.

Tatiana Pozdnyakova, chief specialist of the Moscow meteorological office, told RT.

According to her, the weather in the Russian capital will change by the end of the week, and a cold atmospheric front will also approach the region.

“On April 16, the weather will be cloudy with a little rain.

Behind the cold front, a portion of the "correct" air will come to us, not tropical, as it is now, but polar - the temperature values ​​will correspond to the climate.

This means that it will be moderately warm in Moscow on weekends.

At night + 1 ... +6 ° С, daytime temperature on Saturday + 10 ... +15 ° С, on Sunday it is a couple of degrees warmer, ”she explained.

At the same time, Pozdnyakova stressed that such temperature values ​​"are still higher than the climatic norm."

“This high temperature does not make me happy, but rather scares me, because we perfectly understand that in April such bursts of heat are uncharacteristic.

A wave of cold always comes to replace it.

Fortunately, while this does not happen, the air temperature in the next ten days will not drop to negative values, and this is already good, ”said the chief specialist of the Moscow Meteorological Bureau.

Anatoly Tsygankov, Deputy Head of the Situation Center of Roshydromet, also announced the expectation of a small "conditional" cooling.

“The night will be warm today, somewhere around + 7 ... + 9 ° С without precipitation, during tomorrow there will be an atmospheric front, so it will rain somewhere in the afternoon, the temperature is still warm, + 19 ... + 21 ° С, then on Friday - + 15 ... + 17 ° С - it will be cloudy with slight clearings, rain in places, wind will intensify, gusts of 15 m / s, ”the meteorologist explained.

On weekends, Muscovites will experience colder air penetration, rain in places, gusty winds, and the air temperature will reach + 15 ... + 17 ° С.
