When comparing two decades it is found that most of the cases with the highest monthly rainfall occurred mentioned in 2001-2013, especially in February and December (80%), as well as March, June, August and October (70%). At Kyiv station long-term records of the maximum monthly precipitation were exceeded in March, September 2013 and December 2012. Nine month out of twelve showed the largest monthly amount of precipitation during the period of 2001-2013. The positive trend of precipitation at the Ukrainian Antarctic station was formed primarily on the account of the greatest frequency of strong precipitation.
