The meteorological, or climatic summer has already begun in most of the territory of Ukraine, with the exception of the western regions, where the period of abnormally cold weather lasts, the weather forecaster noted.
June, according to statistics from recent years, is positioned as a moderately warm month with a sufficient amount of precipitation. This year it is predicted warm throughout Europe with maximum deviations from the norm near the Balkan Peninsula, Turkey and Poland.
Warm June is also expected in Ukraine with an average monthly temperature within +18 … +23 ° C, which is 0.5–1.8 ° C above the norm. The amount of precipitation is predicted within the norm, in places in the west and north, 20–40% less than normal. There will be no record heat in June, but there is a high probability of dangerous weather phenomena, such as strong rains, hail and squall, Kibalchich noted.
In July, there will be the hottest days when the daily temperature will reach +35 ° C and higher, and at night it will not fall below +20 ° C. The most likely period with a daily temperature of more than +30 ° C is predicted in the second half of the month. Similar indicators are almost the norm for Ukraine, and hot days are more and more often, especially in the southern, central and eastern regions.
The amount of precipitation in July is expected to be slightly lower than the norm, in connection with which there are risks of natural fires and the development of soil drought in some areas of Ukraine. The average temperature of July is predicted at a level above the norm by 0.7–2.0 ° C, it will fluctuate within +20 … +25 ° C.
In August, hot weather will be in most of the territory of Ukraine, especially in the first half of the month. The temperature background, presumably, will exceed the norm by 2.0–2.5 ° C. At the same time, the records in the heat similar to recorded last year are not predicted, Kibalchich said. The amount of precipitation will be traditionally less than the norm, especially on the left bank, where there are risks of developing a long drought.
The average summer temperature in 2025 is predicted above the climatic norm by about 1.1–2.5 ° C. At the same time, none of the months will become record hot. Precipitation will fall unevenly, strong rains will be in places. In general, for the summer season, increased thunderstorms and more frequent cases of dangerous and spontaneous weather phenomena of convective origin predicts.
