May is the last spring month, when the sun shines more and temperatures increase significantly. At the end of the month the sea temperature reaches 17-18 C. About the same time ocean air masses start penetrating from the northwest bringing a significant increase of showers accompanied by thunder storms and hail. Once every ten years May has unusual cold spells with snow at altitudes of 500 m and over and spring frost in high-altitude valleys. LN/
