Recent ensemble forecasts from the Russian Hydrometeorological Center and European models show a high-pressure ridge advecting warmer continental air into Moscow, with light southerly winds and mostly clear skies supporting daytime heating to a peak near 26°C. This places the market-implied odds for 26°C at 93.5 percent, well above the May climatological average high of roughly 18°C. Model consensus remains tight on the upper bound, limiting probabilities for 27°C or higher to just 5.9 percent. Updated short-range runs tonight could still shift the exact maximum if boundary-layer mixing or unexpected cloud development alters the afternoon energy balance.
