History of UHMI traces back to the 15th of May 1855 when the first Meteorological Observatory in Kiev has been opened. It was the beginning of systematic meteorological observations, their analysis and generalization (later – Kiev magnetic meteorological observatory, 1925, Kiev research geophysical observatory, 1944). Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Institute has gained its independent status in 1953.
