Forecaster Leus: Moscow to see rain and cold snap on Sunday
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] On Sunday, August 17, Moscow will experience short-term rains and a cold snap. This was reported on August 16 by Mikhail Leus, a leading specialist at the Phobos weather center.

"A cold atmospheric front will bring short-term rains to the capital and lower the daytime temperature to +18…+20°. On the first day of the new week, the region will be in the rear of a cyclone with the center over Vyatka, it will continue to drizzle and lower the temperature by another degree," Leus wrote on his Telegram channel.

During the week of August 18–24, the air temperature will be around +20°, 1–2 degrees below the average long-term figures, and then a new cyclone with showers and thunderstorms is expected, the forecaster added.

Earlier, Yandex Weather meteorologists reported that in many regions of Russia, the temperature in autumn will be higher than in the last 30 years. New records of average seasonal and monthly temperatures are expected, in particular, in Novosibirsk, Kazan, Samara, Krasnoyarsk, Chelyabinsk and Perm, and the greatest excess of usual values is predicted for November, which may become the warmest in the last decade.
