Today will bring difficult weather conditions to almost all corners of Ukraine. Forecasters predict precipitation in the form of sleet and rain, strong wind gusts of up to 20 m/s and ice on the roads are possible in places. The air temperature will vary from a freezing -6° at night to a warm +13° during the day, depending on the region.
Snow and rain activity began at night in the east of the country, as well as in the Carpathians and Transcarpathia. Bad weather will spread to most areas in the morning and afternoon. Transcarpathia will receive the largest amount of precipitation, and significant snow with blizzards is expected in the mountainous regions of the Carpathians.

A real winter will prevail in the Carpathians: -6...-11° at night, and up to -5° during the day.
A strong southerly wind will reach a speed of up to 20 m/s, especially during the day. This will be an additional test for residents of most regions.
