The rest of the country will remain dry on Saturday. In the western regions, fog is expected in some areas at night and in the morning, so drivers should be careful on the roads.
The wind will be from the west and southwest, with speeds of 5–10 m/s. Nighttime temperatures across Ukraine will range from 10 to 15°C. It will be cooler in the far west and east—around 6–11°.
