In the summer, Ukraine is expected to experience uneven precipitation across the country, which is why there is a high probability of extreme fire danger – such periods may occur in June and August throughout the country, said Natalia Ptukha, a spokeswoman for the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center.
“According to tentative forecasts, for this season, for 2024, from April to September, the average monthly temperature is expected to be 1-2 degrees higher than normal,” she said during a briefing at the Media Center Ukraine on Friday.
According to her, in the summer there is a high probability of uneven precipitation both across the territory of Ukraine and in principle in time. “As a result, there is a high probability of long periods of extreme fire danger, including 7-10 days without precipitation. These are mainly June and August throughout Ukraine. In the southern regions, this can also be observed in May and September,” explained Ptukha.
