Scorched by the sun: an abnormal heat wave is coming to Central Russia

The weather in the capital will return to the climatic norm only on the evening of May 22, meteorologists predict.

Anatoly Tsygankov, Head of the Crisis Management Department at the Hydrometeorological Center, said on May 22 that this year's summer could be abnormally hot. Forecasters predict periods of high temperatures and lack of precipitation, which increases the risk of drought and wildfires. The fire season in Russia began in April and may last until October, and in some regions — until November.
