A Sharp Cold Snap Approaches Ukraine: When to Expect the First Snow.

Ukraine is expected to face a sharp change in weather on October 31 with short-term rains and strengthening winds. Meteorologist Ihor Kibalchych forecasts the first snow on November 2. According to the meteorologist, these changes are associated with active cyclonic activity in northern Europe. As a result, there will be a sharp drop in temperature, gusty winds, and short-term rains, which will turn into wet snow and sleet in some regions.

Meteorologist Ihor Kibalchych reported that on the night of October 31 in the western regions and during the day in most parts of the country except the southern regions, there will be small short-term rains. Air temperatures at night will range from +5°C to +10°C, in the east from 0°C to +3°C. During the day, temperatures are expected from +10°C to +15°C, and in the Odesa region and Crimea up to +17°C.

On November 1, small rains are expected at night in the far east, Azov region, and Crimea, and during the day in the northwestern regions. No precipitation is forecasted in the rest of Ukraine. Air temperatures at night will range from +5°C to +10°C, in the northern and eastern regions from -3°C to +2°C. During the day, temperatures are expected from +9°C to +14°C, and in the southwestern regions in some places up to +18°C.

On November 2, due to the influence of an active cyclone, unstable and windy weather with small rains is expected. In the northern and some western regions, light wet snow and sleet are possible. Air temperatures will range from +6°C to +11°C, and in the western and northern regions from +2°C to +7°C.

On the night of November 3, no precipitation is expected, and during the day in the northern and western regions, there will be rain with wet snow, while in other regions precipitation is not forecasted. Air temperatures at night will range from -3°C to +2°C, and during the day from +2°C to +7°C.
