Brace yourself, Kazakhstan! The weather's about to take a wild turn starting from May 1! According to our latest reporting, thunderstorms, freezes, and even snow are on the horizon for several regions.
Unstable Skies Ahead
Over the next three days, the country will be hit by atmospheric fronts, bringing rain, thunderstorms, and chilly nights in the east and southeast. Unsettling weather indeed!
"May 2 promises strong rains in the southeast, and there's even a chance of hailstorms," the meteorologists nervously explained. The northern, central, and eastern parts of the country can expect nighttime freezes, while strong winds and foggy conditions will affect the entire country, particularly during the night and early morning hours.
April's Folly: Almaty's Weather Warm-Up
Just a week ago, the lively city of Almaty was basking in an unusually warm April spell. The Kazhydromet department pointed to the influx of warm air from Iran and Central Asia as the root cause, as well as anthropogenic factors contributing to the temperature rise in this bustling metropolis.
But worry not, Almaty residents - the meteorologists predict a slight rise in the average air temperature in May by just 1 degree Celsius, hovering around the usual 17.1 degrees.
