By the end of the day on October 9 and on the night of Friday, October 10, significant rain is forecast in Kyiv and Kyiv region. Level 1 of danger (yellow) has already been declared. Meanwhile, in Odessa on Thursday evening, the first wet snow is quietly falling.
As reported by the State Emergency Service, drivers are urged to be especially careful on the roads and follow safety rules.
“Significant rain is forecast until the end of the day on October 9, with a continuation at night on October 10,” the report states.
At the same time, videos of wet snow falling in the south of the country appeared on social networks in Odessa.
Earlier, meteorologist Natalka Didenko noted that the weather in Ukraine on October 10 will be mostly rainy. The daytime temperature will range from +9 to +14°C, and in the east it will warm up to +15…+19°C.
Experts emphasize that cloudy and wet weather has been going on for several weeks, and a new wave of precipitation will only continue this trend.
Odessa is still recovering from the recent disaster. On September 30, the city was literally drowned in rainwater . Two months’ worth of precipitation fell in seven hours. The downpours paralyzed transport, flooded dozens of houses, and damaged infrastructure. The city has declared a red alert.
As a reminder, Odessa Mayor Gennady Trukhanov warned of a new threat of large-scale flooding in the city and convened a commission on technogenic and environmental safety and emergencies to assess the risks. According to experts, the greatest danger of flooding is for the coastal zone from Kryzhanivka to Chornomorka, as well as for the territories stretching inland from the center to the village of Avangard.
It is worth adding that the downpour in Odessa was caused by a local cyclone over the Black Sea , whose movement to the north and east was blocked by an anticyclone. This led to the intensification of atmospheric fronts and record rainfall.
