The Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center has responded to online "forecasts" predicting 10 cm of snow
The Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center has issued a clarification regarding information circulating in the media in its name about alleged heavy snowfall (including rumors of “10 cm of snow in the Kyiv region”). Meteorologists emphasized that the actual forecast had been exaggerated for the sake of clickbait.
This was reported by the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center.
Key facts about the weather for the coming days:
Arctic air: A cold air mass is indeed dominating Ukraine, which will cause frosts in many regions over the next two nights (April 21–22).
Precipitation on April 21: Moderate rain is expected overnight across nearly the entire country (except the north), and during the day in the Carpathian region, Transcarpathia, and the southeast.
Where snow is possible: * Wet snow is forecast in the Carpathians.
In the east, there is a slight chance of wet snow, which may mix with rain. It may briefly linger on surfaces but will melt quickly due to above-freezing temperatures.
Forecasters urge the public to rely only on official sources and not to panic over “forecasts” of abnormal snowdrifts in central regions. Temperatures will remain mostly above freezing, although nights will be genuinely cold.
Cloudy weather with precipitation is expected in most regions of the country on April 21, and temperatures are expected to drop below freezing in a number of regions.
Monday, April 20, 2026, brought a noticeable drop in temperature and rainy weather to Ukraine.
After a cold winter, Ukrainians are looking forward to spring warmth, but April will bring not only sunshine but also weather “swings.”
