Snow fell in Kyiv today, March 17, returning a winter atmosphere to the capital. Kyiv residents could observe, albeit small, but quite noticeable accumulations of snow in several districts of the city, reports the correspondent of UNN.

Currently, snow is falling in the northern districts of the city. Most likely, by 8 p.m. it will engulf the entire capital. Even earlier, the first snowflakes were recorded in the Buchansky district of Kyiv region.
