Anomalously warm weather in Ukraine is anticipated this week. It will be mostly dry, with occasional fog and light winds. This information was reported by meteorologist Igor Kibalchich on meteoprog.
According to him, the weather in our country will be influenced by a high-pressure area and an anticyclone moving in from the east throughout the week.
"Against the backdrop of a prevailing warm air mass, the air temperature is expected to be unusually high, particularly in the southern and western regions of the country," the meteorologist stated.
He forecasts that significant precipitation is not expected, with only a slight chance of light rain in Crimea and the western regions.
"Overall, the weather conditions will resemble more of November or March, and the average anomaly for the period from January 20 to 27, according to the ECMWF predictive model, will be +3...+6 °C in Ukraine," Kibalchich said.
