Information on the hydrometeorological situation in the river basins of the Republic of Belarus, formed in June 2021
The average air temperature in Belarus for the first summer month of 2021 was + 19.9°C, which is 3.5°C higher than the climatic norm. June 2021 ranked 3rd in a ranked series of observations from warmest to coldest since 1945. Daytime temperatures in the first half of the month were mainly within the range of +20 +25°C, in the second half of the month they increased to +30°C and above, and on June 22-25 they exceeded the 35-degree mark in places, which corresponds to the criterion of a dangerous phenomenon. In the third decade of June, an intense heat wave was noted, as a result of which the absolute maximum air temperature for June was updated in most of the territory of Belarus, with the exception of some observation points mainly in the west. During the month, on average, 54.6 mm of precipitation fell in the republic, which amounted to 67% of the climatic norm, but at some points of observation, the amount of precipitation for the month exceeded the norm. The humidification regime was uneven throughout the month. The first and second decades were dry: 40 and 48% of the ten-day norm fell out, respectively. In the third decade, 110% of the ten-day norm fell out. The rains were mostly torrential, accompanied by thunderstorms and hail. In some areas, the rains have reached the criteria for a hazardous phenomenon. In June, on the rivers of the country, there was mainly a decrease in water levels, as a result of which, on the tributary of the Western Bug, the Narev River, the Dnieper near the Loyev city, the Berezina near the Berezino, Sluch and Ptich water entered the channel, and on the Western Dvina near Vitebsk, Dnieper near Mogilev, Zhlobin and Rechitsa, Berezin near Bobruisk, Sozhe near Krichev and Slavgorod, working conditions worsened river transport. In the last five days of the month, precipitation caused an increase in water levels in most of the rivers in the basins of the Western Dvina, Neman, Viliya, Berezina and Sozh, in connection with which, on the tributary of the Berezina, the Sushanka river near the village of Susha, water reached the floodplain. The water content of most rivers in June was close to the usual for this time of year and slightly lower than the norm; the water content of the Berezina and Dnieper near the town of Rechitsa was 30% higher than the norm, and the water content of the Sozh near the town of Gomel was 65% higher. The value of the minimum water level in June on the Lan River near the village of Mokrovo (a tributary of the Pripyat) turned out to be lower than the historical minimum for the period of the summer-autumn dry season. The average monthly water temperature in rivers and reservoirs in June was 18-22°С, which is close to the usual temperature for this time of the year.

World Environment Day
On June 5, the world community annually celebrates World Environment Day. This holiday, like other environmental dates, is held with the aim of drawing public attention to such phenomena as natural disasters, declining biodiversity, new diseases that are the result of our relationship to the environment. Maybe in the course of the daily routine of affairs, problems and their own worries, a person does not notice how his actions cause irreparable harm to the environment. That is why there are such dates - to stop, think and take certain actions to minimize the negative impact on the environment. In Belarus, environmental protection issues are dealt with by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection of the Republic of Belarus, which is the ancestor of a large number of environmental initiatives. Belhydromet, as an organization subordinate to the Ministry of Natural Resources, makes a great contribution to the study of environmental problems, as it monitors surface water, atmospheric air, participates in monitoring lands, and also monitors radioactive contamination of the environment. The tasks of Belhydromet are also to ensure the radiation safety of the population, to conduct radiation monitoring as part of the National Environmental Monitoring System in the Republic of Belarus and to carry out operational control and forecasting of the zones of spread of radioactive contamination. Based on the results of the work carried out, the population and government bodies are provided with environmental information and information obtained from the results of monitoring the radioactive contamination of the environment.

Forecast information on minimum water levels in rivers in June 2021
Overview of the water regime of rivers in May In May, on the rivers of the Dnieper and Pripyat basins, there was a decline in water levels, as a result of which water entered the channel on the Dnieper near Zhlobin and Rechitsa, Pripyat near Mozyr, its tributaries, the Stviga and Ubort rivers. On the rivers of the basins of the Western Dvina, Neman, Viliya, Berezina and Sozh, an increase in water levels prevailed, due to precipitation, as a result of which water reached the floodplain on Viliya near the village of Steshitsa, tributaries of the Berezina rivers Svisloch and Sushanka, a tributary of the Sozh to the Besed river, and on Nemane near Grodno improved working conditions for river transport.   The water content of most rivers is close to the usual for this time of year, only the water content of the Sozh and Pripyat near the city of Pinsk is 20-40% higher than the norm. As of May 28, the rivers are mainly experiencing a decline in water levels. The water is located on the floodplain on Viliya near the village of Steshitsy, a tributary of the Western Bug to the Narev river near the village of Nemerzha, the Dnieper near the town of Loyev, the Berezina near the town of Berezino, its tributaries of the Svisloch rivers near the village of Terebuty and Sushanka near the village of Susha, a tributary of the Sozh river Besed near the village of Svetilovichi, Pripyat near the village of Chernichi, its tributaries the Styr rivers near the village of Lopatino, Sluch near the village of Lenin, Ptich near the village of 1st Slobodka. Forecast information on minimum water levels in June River minimum water levels in June are expected to be generally higher than the multiyear average for this time of year.

Information on the hydrometeorological situation in river basins of Belarus formed in March 2021
The average air temperature in Belarus in March was + 1.1°C, which is 0.9°C higher than the climatic norm. The above zero air temperature anomaly spread everywhere, reaching the highest values in the Vitebsk region (on average in the region of 1.3°C), and the lowest in the Gomel region (on the average in the region of 0.6°C). On average, 26.7 mm of precipitation fell in Belarus in March, which amounted to 68% of the climatic norm. Moisture deficit was noted throughout the country. The smallest amount of precipitation fell on the territory of the Brest region (53% of the norm), the highest - on the territory of the Vitebsk region (79% of the norm). In March, the nature of the weather contributed to the slow melting of ice on the country's water bodies and their gradual clearing of ice formations. By the end of the month, only on the Western Dvina near the city of Surazh, an incomplete ice cover remained, and on the Pripyat tributary, the Ptich river, near the village of Daraganovo, there were water shores. In March, on the rivers of the country, the increase in the water levels of the spring flood occurred everywhere. In some parts of the rivers of the basins of the Neman, Viliya, Zapadny Bug, Dnieper, Berezina, Sozh and Pripyat, the water levels exceeded the level of water outlet to the floodplain. On the river Pronya tributary near the village of Letyaga, the water level exceeded a dangerous high mark, and on the Pripyat near the villages of Chernichi and the town of Petrikov, as well as on its tributary river Sluch near the village of Lenin, the water levels were close to dangerous high marks. By the end of the month, due to negative night air temperatures, in some parts of the rivers there was a slight drop in water levels and their even course, as a result of which the water level on the Pronya River, a tributary of the Sozh near the village of Letyagi, dropped below a dangerous high mark. In March, the water content of Sozh and Pripyat was close to the usual for this time of year, the water content of the Neman and Viliya was 10-40% less than the norm, and the water content of the Dnieper, Berezina and Western Dvina in the area of Polotsk was 20-40% higher than the norm.

Information on the hydrometeorological situation in river basins of Belarus formed in February 2021
In February, the average monthly air temperature was -6.5°C, which is 2.2°C below the climatic norm. The below zero air temperature anomaly spread everywhere. The first and second ten days of the month were very cold with average ten-day temperatures 4.4°C and 6.0°C below normal, respectively. The third decade was very warm with an average temperature of 5.5°C above normal. In February, the amount of precipitation in Belarus averaged 38.7 mm, or 111% of the climatic norm. Excess precipitation was noted over most of the country. The largest amount of precipitation fell in the Mogilev and Gomel regions - on average 57.9 mm (175% of the climatic norm) and 55.9 mm (164% of the climatic norm), respectively, the lowest in the Vitebsk region - on average for the region 21.6 mm (54% of the climatic norm).  During the month, precipitation fell unevenly. In the first decade, excessive moisture was noted (21.9 mm or 178% of the norm per decade fell), in the second decade, the moisture regime was close to the usual (12.4 mm or 105% of the norm), in the third, there was a shortage of precipitation (4.5 mm or 41%). In February, almost everywhere on the rivers of the country, freeze-up up to 35 cm thick was observed; in some places, ice holes were observed in the ice cover. On the reservoirs Vileyskoye, Chigirinskoye, Zaslavskoye, Soligorskoye, Krasnaya Sloboda, lakes Lukomskoye, Drivyaty, Naroch and Chervoneye, a continuous ice cover up to 40 cm thick was observed. In the third decade of February, as a result of an increase in air temperature, processes of ice destruction began on the country's water bodies. In the first two decades of the month, slight fluctuations in water levels were noted, in the third decade, weather conditions contributed to the melting of snow and ice covers, as a result of which water levels were observed on most rivers in the country. In some parts of the rivers of the basins of the Neman, Viliya, Dnieper, Berezina, Sozh and Pripyat, the water levels exceeded the mark of water outlet to the floodplain. By the end of February, the water content of Viliya, Zapadny Bug, Pripyat, as well as the Neman near Stolbtsy and Dnieper in the Orsha - Mogilev section was close to the usual for this time of year, the water content of the Zapadnaya Dvina, Berezina, Sozh and Dnieper in the Zhlobin - Rechitsa section was higher the norm, and less than the norm was the water content of the Neman in the Belitsa - Grodno section.
