Looking ahead, the spring equinox is set to arrive in Ukraine on March 20, 2023, which typically hints at a gradual warming trend. By March 23, 2023, temperatures are expected to rise — welcome news for residents after this cooler spell.

The weather changes on March 17 highlight the typical instability of spring temperatures.
