Kyiv-on-the-Caribbean

Kyiv-on-the-Caribbean: Last Tuesday, Kyiv daytime temperatures hit +14.8 °C (59°F), the highest for that date since the Central Geophysical Observatory started taking records in 1880. With crocuses blooming this week, the Observatory also concludes that for the first time in 140 years, Kyiv did not experience a “meteorological winter.” All three winter months – December, January and February had average temperatures above freezing. The city never saw “stable snow cover.”
