Beginning of the month: from summer heat to pleasant coolness
The first days of July will be greeted by the classic summer hot weather for the residents of Zhytomyr. The air temperature on July 1-2 will reach +28…+30°C , and the nights will be truly “tropical” — about +19…+20°C. This heat will last for a long time, and there may even be new temperature records of +2 degrees from the average values of previous years.
On July 3-4, due to the passage of an atmospheric front, intense short-term rains with thunderstorms and gusty winds are expected. After that, the temperature background will drop sharply: during the day, the thermometer will show a comfortable +22…+25°C , and the nights will become cooler (+14…+16°C). By the end of the first decade, the weather will stabilize, alternating sunny clearings with light precipitation.
Mid-month: stability and moderate warmth
The second decade of July (from the 11th to the 20th) will be marked by the absence of extreme weather events. This is an ideal time for walks around the city, trips to nature on the beach, along the Teteriv River, or summer cottage work. The air temperature will be within +24…+27°C .
The sun will often hide behind clouds, but prolonged showers are not expected, on the contrary, the weather will be stuffy due to high humidity. Precipitation will be local in nature – mostly it will be quiet, warm summer rains without strong winds. Closer to July 19-20, atmospheric pressure may drop slightly, which will bring more cloudy weather and moderate precipitation, lowering the daytime temperature to +23°C.

End of the month: return of sunny days
The third decade (July 21-31) will bring a little more sun. The air will start to warm up again, and from July 23-25, Zhytomyr residents will be able to enjoy real summer heat with temperatures of +27…+29°C , and sometimes even above +32 degrees in the shade due to the hot city asphalt.
However, as at the beginning of the month, after several hot days, nature will restore balance: thunderstorms will pass on July 26-27, which will refresh the air. July will end on a pleasant note – with temperatures around +26…+27°C, a light breeze, and comfortable nights.
Tip: This July in Zhytomyr will require constant use of air conditioners, but you should also not forget about an umbrella and keep it at hand, as sudden and unpredictable thunderstorms are not uncommon. If you are planning a vacation in the fresh air, it is best to focus on the second and end of the third decade of the month.
