The temperature will remain 10-12 degrees above normal in the Moscow region until the end of the working week, on Thursday the air may warm up to plus 18 degrees, the scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center of Russia Roman Vilfand told Interfax.

"The temperature in Moscow is very high now. Until the end of the working week — plus 12 — plus 14 degrees, and on Thursday in Moscow to plus 14 — plus 16, and it is possible that in the region even to plus 18 degrees," said Vilfand.

He specified that the "incredibly high temperature" is due to the fact that very warm air enters the center of European Russia from the south, which, due to the lack of snow, including in the south of Russia and in the central chernozem regions, "practically does not transform" and does not cool down. The temperature in Moscow, as Vilfand noted, is 10-12 degrees above normal.
