According to ТСН: On Thursday, various weather conditions will be observed in Ukraine: in some regions there will be frost and snow, while in others - warm weather.

Forecasters from the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center report that such contrasting weather conditions are caused by an active southern cyclone, which is moving from Odesa through the central regions to Sumy.
