Dry and calm weather expected in Latvia over the coming week
Forecasters say an anticyclone will bring little precipitation to Latvia, with rain more likely along the coast. From Tuesday winds will strengthen, and some roads may ice over at night.
Weather in Latvia over the coming week will be shaped by an anticyclone, a high-pressure system that usually brings drier conditions. As a result, there will be very little precipitation, and rain will be more frequent along the coast, forecasters say.
Weekend and Monday
This weekend and on Monday skies will be largely cloudy. Brief rain and drizzle are expected in places, and fog is possible. Winds will be light, and in some areas there will be none at all.
In most of the country, morning temperatures will range from 0 to +6 degrees Celsius, and midday temperatures from +5 to +9. On Saturday it will remain about one degree warmer.
From Tuesday
Starting Tuesday, winds from the west and north will range from light to strong. Skies will clear more often, and brief precipitation is occasionally expected.
Icing is possible on some road sections during the night and morning hours. On a few nights temperatures will drop below zero in places, most often in the east of the country. On the warmest days, temperatures will rise to between +6 and +11 degrees.
Six-week outlook
According to the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, temperature and precipitation in Latvia over the next six weeks will on average be close to normal. Only the first week of November is expected to be markedly drier.
