On Friday, relatively cold weather will persist across Uzbekistan.

On Sunday, precipitation is expected in most regions of the republic (except for the Fergana Valley). In the central regions and the southern part of the republic, precipitation is anticipated in the second half of the day.

In Bukhara and Navoi regions, nighttime temperatures will be –2…+3 degrees, and daytime temperatures will be 0…+5 degrees.
