The rains caused one of the city's rivers, the Yauza, to overflow near Aqueduct Park in northeastern Moscow.
Muscovites could be seen navigating through thigh-deep water, while ducks from the Yauza swam along pedestrian paths, local media reported.
In the Moscow suburb of Shchyolkovo, two people were reportedly killed by a fallen tree.
The Moscow region has been hit by three "abnormally" rainy days in a row, with some districts in the capital receiving nearly a month's worth of rain, the Phobos weather center said.
