A cold snap and frost are expected in Ukraine over Easter

Unstable weather with sharp temperature fluctuations is forecast for Ukraine in the days leading up to Easter.

This was reported by Ivan Semylit, a representative of the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center.

Fog is possible throughout the week leading up to the holiday, especially in the central and southern regions.

Temperatures will range from +5 to +10 degrees at night and up to +18 degrees during the day, but it will be colder in the west.

From April 8 to 12, a sharp drop in temperature is expected—down to 0–3 degrees at night and only +1 to +8 during the day.

No significant precipitation is forecast for Palm Sunday, though strong winds are possible.

On Easter Sunday itself, temperatures will range from +1 to +6 degrees at night and +11 to +16 degrees during the day, reaching up to +18 degrees in the south.

Forecasters warn of wind gusts up to 15–20 m/s.

Easter is a movable feast, the date of which changes every year. In 2026, it may be celebrated on either April 5 or April 12, which causes some confusion.
