The last month of spring - May - is not far away, and rare warm days remind us of the imminent arrival of summer, this long-awaited and favorite time of the year.

However, despite the fact that spring is coming to an end, one needs to dress up warmly, because the weather has a tendency to change rapidly within one day. So, be careful and try not to get sick in this rather dangerous period.

Azerbaijan's National Hydrometeorology Department at Azerbaijan's Ecology and Natural Resources Ministry has a report on the upcoming month.

The report shows that the average temperature in Baku and the Absheron peninsula will be 17-12 degrees above zero, which is closer and even slightly higher than the climatic norm. Monthly precipitation in the region is expected to be close to the norm (18-21 mm).
