Ukraine is currently dealing with an unusual heatwave for the season, with record-high temperatures in some regions. According to reports from Труха⚡️Україна, 28 degrees Celsius were measured in Kyiv, while some cities experienced heat indices of up to 40-41 degrees in the sun.

The weather forecast for the coming hours predicts a continuation of the warming trend.

Additional sources such as Київ | Times noted that in the Kyiv region, the temperature could reach 27 degrees.

However, the weather is expected to change rapidly towards the weekend.

At the same time, experts quoted in UA Stream clarified that these are natural atmospheric changes and that long-term forecasts for an entire summer of 40-degree temperatures are merely rumors.
