On March 8-12, as a result of water discharges from the Kyiv reservoir and due to the passage of the spring flood, the level of the Dnieper water in Kyiv and the Boryspil district of the Kyiv region will remain significantly above standard levels. According to forecasts from the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, the water level will “keep above the initial flooding levels of floodplains and low riverine areas (hazard level I - yellow).”.

Where else will the water level be high?.
On March 8-12, as a result of rising and maintaining high water levels, flooding will continue on the Desna and Snov rivers, disrupting transport links with individual settlements in the Novgorod-Seversky, Koryukovsky, Nezhinsky, Chernihiv districts of the Chernihiv region and the Shostkinsky district of the Sumy region. A difficult situation will be on the Upper Dnieper, where there will be flooding of the floodplain with disruption of transport communication of a number of riverine communities by the waters of the Sozh and Dnieper in the Chernigov district of the Chernigov region.
At the mouth of Pripyat in the area of \u200b\u200bthe Chernobyl nuclear power plant, “water levels will be kept at the maximum levels of the spring flood with the conservation of water on the floodplain in the Kyiv region,” reports the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center..
It was previously reported that the hydrometeorological conditions of the winter of 2023-2024 were unfavorable for powerful spring floods on the rivers of Ukraine. Meteorologists say that a short winter and unstable weather patterns with alternating cold and thaw periods and a small amount of accumulated snow on the soil have created a small supply of snow and ice. This is precisely what gives no reason to talk about high spring floods. However, some regions may experience a dangerous situation.
