Throughout the rest of the country, nighttime temperatures will be between 8-13°C, and daytime temperatures from 17 to 24°C.

It is important to note that the weather conditions will be quite favorable for agriculture and outdoor recreation. No significant complications are expected in the capital. In Kyiv, on Wednesday night, there will be short-term rain with temperatures of 7-9°C, but no precipitation is forecasted during the day, with the air warming up to +17°C, and a north wind at 5-10 m/s. This will create comfortable daytime conditions with minimal atmospheric fluctuations. On May 8th, the weather situation will again be calm, with no precipitation. However, at night, temperatures may drop, with brief rainfall expected in the Carpathians and the southern regions. In western and northern areas, nighttime temperatures will range from 1-8°C, with ground frosts of 0-3°C, while during the day, temperatures will be between 10-16°C.

During the day, rainfall may spread across the entire territory of Ukraine, except for the northwest.

If you plan to spend time outdoors, consider the weather changes and be prepared for temporary rainfall. This combination of rain and warmth will not only promote the growth of crops but also boost the mood of those who enjoy the variety of spring weather and natural scenery.
