October in Ukraine will be warmer than last year, and the first snow will fall in mid-November, predicts Vazira Martazinova, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences in Meteorology.
“Last year, October was warm until the end of the month. This year, the temperature will be even higher,” Martazinova said at a briefing on Wednesday.
According to her, in the western part of Ukraine, the weather in October will be 2-4 degrees above normal.
“The average monthly temperature is about 8 degrees. This means +12-13 degrees. In the rest of the country, even higher temperatures are expected in October: it could be around +12-15 degrees,” Martazinova said.
She also noted that half of November will also be warmer than in 2022, and the first snow will fall in mid-November, but will melt immediately.
“We can expect the first snow in the pre-winter period. Pre-winter is mid-November. It will fall and disappear. That will be the first snow. And then the next snow will be the same,” Martazinova said.
