Dear Jane,
Thank you for your letter. It was great to hear from you!
You asked me about the weather in Russia. Well, you know, our country is large, so I'll tell you about European Russia. Summers here can be very hot, with temperatures reaching 30 °C. The average Moscow temperature in summer is around 20 degrees, but there can be chilly mornings and evenings. You'll be OK if you take some light warm clothes. Don’t forget to bring good sunscreen for hot days and an umbrella or a hooded raincoat to be prepaired for rainy weather.
Please feel free to ask me more questions. I'll be happy to help you.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
