Latvia's weather next week will be shaped by low-pressure systems bringing frequent rain, with a chance of intense, prolonged rainfall by the weekend.

The start of next week will bring more unsettled weather than the past weekend. On Monday, rain is expected across a wide area, with heavy downpours and thunderstorms possible in some places. On Tuesday, precipitation will mainly affect the Latgale region, where a more persistent rain zone is forecast. Winds on both days will generally be light from the west, gradually shifting toward the north. Daytime temperatures will hover around 20 degrees Celsius, while nighttime lows will mostly stay above 10 to 15 degrees.

Unsettled conditions to persist

Mid-week weather is not expected to change significantly, as Latvia will remain under the influence of low-pressure systems, keeping the chance of rain relatively high. However, precipitation will be unevenly distributed, with rain zones shifting from day to day and some areas potentially staying dry on certain days. No significant strengthening of wind is forecast during this period.

Heavy rain possible over the weekend

Particular attention should be paid to the weekend forecast, as intense and prolonged rain could begin during the night into Saturday and continue through the day. This would be linked to an active cyclone moving through Latvia from the south. Meteorologists note that this forecast could still change significantly depending on the cyclone's trajectory, so more precise information will be available closer to the weekend.
