Ukraine is expecting intense heat this weekend, temperatures will rise to +35 degrees

After a relatively moderate start to summer, real heat will come to Ukraine. Starting from the weekend, air temperatures will exceed +30 degrees, and in western regions thermometers may reach +35. This was reported by forecaster and head of the media communications department of the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, Natalia Ptukha, during a briefing, reports UNN.

Details

We do not have any calm outlook. On the contrary, temperatures will rise. What is currently influencing this: an anticyclone is moving across Europe... this is a baric formation, meaning high atmospheric pressure, calm, mostly low-wind weather, and accordingly this situation has combined with a heated air mass. Currently, the southwestern regions of Europe are suffering the most these days. There, temperature indicators are reaching record values

- said Ptukha.

According to her, this cyclone will subsequently shift toward central Europe.

This heat will be more intense specifically for the territory of Ukraine, because now we can say it is a moderately hot summer... But with temperatures of 30 degrees and above, we expect that starting from the weekend. The western regions will be the first to experience it. There, from tomorrow, temperatures may rise to 35

- added Ptukha.

She noted that by the weekend, the intense heat will intensify in the western regions, and then from Monday - in the right-bank areas.

Recall

In Europe on Thursday, it is expected that at least 101 million people will face temperatures above 35°C amid the ongoing heat wave.
