January continues to surprise Ukrainians with its unusual mildness. Today, January 21, the temperature in the country will drop by several degrees, but will remain comfortable for the middle of winter. In most regions, the thermometer will show 0°…+3°, in the southern and western regions it will rise to +4°…+5° in places, and in Crimea, real spring warmth is expected - up to +8°. The weather will be mostly dry, without precipitation, which will only emphasize the general calm of this day.
It is cloudy in Kyiv today, but the temperature will not drop below -1° at night and will reach +1° during the day. In the western regions, including Lviv, Lutsk, Rivne and Ivano-Frankivsk, cloudiness with clearings will contribute to a feeling of lightness. The daytime temperature here will range from +2° to +5°, and at night it is expected to be around -1°. The southern regions will meet the day with clouds, but pleasant warmth: Odesa, Kherson and Mykolaiv will stay at +4° during the day and around 0° at night.
In the east of the country, including Kharkiv, Kramatorsk and Severodonetsk, slight cloudiness is forecast, but the temperature will remain moderate: -1°…0° at night, up to +3° during the day. A similar situation will persist in central regions, such as Dnipro, Poltava and Cherkasy, where the maximum daytime temperature will not exceed +2°.
The day will be unusually warm for Crimea as well. In Simferopol, the temperature will rise to +8°, and the clear sky will add a feeling of spring in the middle of winter. In general, Ukrainians can enjoy the lack of precipitation and quite comfortable conditions for walks or trips.
This day once again demonstrates how the climate is changing, and January is turning into a month of increasingly mild weather conditions. Winter frosts now seem like a distant prospect, giving way to warmth, which is already becoming the norm even in the cold season.
