In Dnipro, an unusually warm weather pattern has persisted for several days, deceiving nature - spring flowers have begun to bloom in the city. This was reported by "Vydomo" referencing "DS: News Dnipro".
For several consecutive days, the city has been enjoying this atypical warmth, with air temperatures significantly exceeding the average January levels. This temperature anomaly, caused by complex atmospheric processes, particularly the influence of Atlantic cyclones and the absence of Arctic air masses, has resulted in the astonishing phenomenon of premature plant blooming.
On the Naberezhna Pobedy, a popular leisure spot for residents, crocuses have bloomed. These delicate yellow flowers, which typically adorn the city's flower beds in early spring, appear particularly exotic now, in the middle of winter, delighting passersby.
Although such occurrences are unusual, they are not unprecedented. Similar cases of early blooming have been recorded before in various regions of the world during periods of abnormal warming. However, the scale and intensity of the current blooming in Dnipro have surprised even experienced botanists.
This phenomenon may be linked not only to the warm weather but also to the characteristics of the soil and the plants themselves.
Experts note that this "deception" of nature can have both positive and negative consequences - early blooming is pleasing to the eye and boosts spirits, but it may weaken the plants, reducing their winter hardiness.
Additionally, an early awakening could lead to the death of the plants if a sudden cold snap with frost occurs.
