Today, Ukrainians are waiting for a real weather contrast: the western regions will be under the rule of rains and coolness, while the East and South - in the captivity of extreme heat. According to the Ukrhydromet Center, the temperature difference between the regions will reach more than 20 ° C.
West: Rain, Thunderstorms and Coke
In the west of Ukraine, as well as in the Zhytomyr and Vinnytsia regions, cloudy weather with precipitation is forecast. The most intense rainfall is expected in Transcarpathia and the Carpathian region, and thunderstorms are possible. The daytime temperature will drop to +15… +20 ° C, and at night - up to +12… +17 ° C. In Zhytomyr and Vinnitsa, daytime indicators will be slightly higher - up to +26 ° C.
This is a significant decrease in temperature compared to the previous hot days.
East, south and center: dangerous heat
Instead, sunny and hot weather is maintained in the east, southeast and most central areas. In Sumy, Poltava, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia and Donetsk regions, the temperature will rise to +35… +38 ° C. This value is considered potentially dangerous-experts advise to avoid staying in the open sun in the peak hours, especially for children, the elderly and those who have cardiovascular disease.
In the south, including Nikolaev, Kherson and Odessa, the air warms up to +30… +37 ° C. At the same time, short -term thunderstorms are possible in the Kyiv, Cherkasy and Odessa regions.
The situation in Kiev
The capital is forecast to +30… +32 ° C. The changing cloudiness and the likelihood of short -term rain are expected. Against the backdrop of the 38-degree heat in the east of the country, this temperature looks relatively comfortable, but still remains above average for July.
