In the coming days, Ukraine will continue to experience warm and, in some places, hot weather, with brief showers and thunderstorms in certain regions. According to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, daytime temperatures in most regions will range from +25 to +32 degrees.

The highest temperatures are forecast for the southern and eastern regions, where thermometers may reach +34 degrees. In the western and northern regions, there will be localized thunderstorms, which will bring temporary relief from the heat. A moderate northwesterly wind is expected, with possible gusts during thunderstorms.

Earlier, average nuclear power generation in France fell below 33 GW, the lowest level in the past nine months, due to the need to limit output at nuclear power plants. The reduction was caused by a critical rise in water temperatures in the rivers used to cool the reactors.
