Summer is gradually drawing to an end, but it is not fading out quietly. This week saw some very changeable weather in Moscow. Monday was hot and sticky with temperatures reaching a sweltering high of 32 degrees Celsius. Many city dwellers struggled to stay comfortable in the heat. Tuesday evening brought sudden rain and storms into the city, leaving those without umbrellas temporarily stranded, seeking cover for themselves and their belongings wherever it could be found.
