Forecasters: rain expected this week in Latvia, possible warm spell in late September

Residents of Latvia should prepare for unsettled and likely unfavorable weather in the coming days. Meteorologists forecast that cyclones will move into the country this week, bringing heavy rainfall. This means most of Latvia's territory should expect precipitation and possibly windy conditions typical of such weather fronts.

A possible warm spell ahead

However, the wet weather is not expected to persist without a break. According to forecasters, the last days of September and the beginning of October could bring a period of warmer weather to Latvia — a phenomenon sometimes referred to as a second or "Indian" summer. Such spells are common in early autumn, when after the first waves of cold and rain, temporarily warmer and sunnier conditions return before the season shifts fully into typical autumn weather.

Forecasters emphasize that this remains a prediction, since weather patterns at this time of year tend to be relatively unstable and can change. More precise details about the expected warm spell and its likely duration should become clearer in the coming days, once the movement of the cyclones and their effect on the region is better understood.

For now, residents are advised to keep track of the latest weather updates, particularly when planning outdoor activities in the near term, as increased rainfall is expected. If the forecast for a warm spell holds true, it would offer a further stretch of milder, drier weather before autumn conditions with lower temperatures and more frequent rain set in for good.
