The day will be cloudy. In the western regions, there will be light snow mixed with rain, and thermometers will show temperatures from 0° to +5°.
In the rest of the territory, there will be no precipitation, except for light snow and wet snow during the day in the northern, Vinnytsia, and Cherkasy regions. Daytime temperatures are expected to range from -2° to +3°, while in the south, they may rise to +4° to +9°.
