Winter Solstice Day
December 21 marks the Winter Solstice Day, which is the shortest day of the year. As meteorologist Natalka Didenko notes,
“the weather conditions on this day will not change dramatically, but the date has a symbolic meaning: this day signals our transition to spring.”At the same time, from December 25, a drop in temperature is expected in Ukraine, which Natalka Didenko confirms, stating that
“right on Christmas, from December 25, cold weather will begin in Ukraine.”
