Air Temperature
In most regions, daytime temperatures will range from -1 to -6°C. In Transcarpathia and the southern part of the country, the thermometer will rise to 0-5°C.
In Kyiv and the Kyiv region, overcast weather with clearings is also expected. At night, light snow is possible in some places, but no precipitation is forecasted during the day.
Daytime air temperatures in the Kyiv region will fluctuate from -1 to -6°C, while in the capital, temperatures are expected to be -4 to -6°C.
According to meteorologist Natalia Holenya's forecasts,
“snow and frost are coming.”The drop in temperature is due to the arrival of cold Arctic air from the northern regions of Europe and from the White Sea.
“Starting from December 24, a transition to winter temperature conditions will occur.”
Thus, Ukrainians should prepare for true winter weather. Snow and frost are already on the way, so drivers and pedestrians should be cautious, especially during icy conditions. However, winter sports enthusiasts will likely greet this news with joy, as this year’s winter promises to be generous with snow.
