Belarusians were alerted by Belgidromet about an upcoming three-day catastrophe.
Rainy and chilly days ahead, folks! Meteorological warnings have been issued for different areas in Belarus, and it ain't nothing but thunderstorms and frost we're talkin' about.
On Saturday, May 3rd, the southern regions might get hit with some thunderstorms, but that's not all—some parts might just be lucky and miss the storm. Belhydromet didn't specify exactly where, though, and we ain't mad about it.
Sunday, May 4th, what a mother of a day! Prepare for some downpours, thunder, and wind gusts up to 70 km/h. Not a breeze, but a full-on windstorm! The exact locations for these weather events are still somewhat hazy, just like the rain clouds.
Enough about the weekend, y'all. Monday, May 5th, might bring something different—we can't promise anything yet, but let's keep our fingers crossed. But save your excitement for Tuesday, May 6th, as the danger level is on the rise. According to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, based on Belhydromet data, expect temperatures to drop to 0 to 5°C across most of Belarus, with Minsk seeing -1 to 3°C that night.
Now, some of you might wonder: how to protect your gardens from such cold spells? Well, heed these steps: by April 25-26, it's crucial to take care of three things: the soil, the plants, and the watering system. But remember, different methods work better for different gardeners, so you might want to give them all a try.
