Nighttime temperatures will range from +1 to +6 °C, while daytime highs will rise to between +14 and +19 °C, allowing residents to enjoy outdoor activities.
The northern regions will not see significant precipitation either. Winds will be from the west at speeds of 7 to 12 m/s, with gusts potentially reaching 15 to 20 m/s during the day. Nighttime temperatures will hover between +3 and +8 °C, while daytime temperatures will climb to +10 to +15 °C, creating favorable conditions for outdoor recreation.
In the central regions, meteorologists predict overcast skies without precipitation. Winds will be from the northwest at speeds of 7 to 12 m/s.

The southern regions are also expected to enjoy warm weather with no precipitation. Winds will be from the northwest at speeds of 5 to 10 m/s.

In the eastern regions, no precipitation is anticipated. Winds will predominantly come from the northwest at speeds of 7 to 12 m/s. Nighttime temperatures will range from +5 to +10 °C, while daytime temperatures will rise to between +12 and +17 °C, also promoting active outdoor leisure.
