Latvia weather forecast predicts frequent rain and cyclones
Latvia is expected to experience variable weather throughout the second half of August due to the influence of active cyclones. Forecasters predict frequent rain and slightly cooler temperatures, although daytime highs in most parts of the country will continue to reach or exceed +20°C.
The beginning of the week will see increased precipitation, with potential thunderstorms on Monday and more prolonged rain in the eastern regions, specifically Latgale, on Tuesday. While winds are expected to remain generally light, shifting from westerly to northerly, the mid-week period will maintain a high probability of rain as the country remains under cyclonic influence.
There is a significant possibility of intense and prolonged rainfall toward the end of the week, potentially starting on Friday night and continuing through Saturday. This weather pattern may be driven by an active cyclone crossing Latvia from the south, though meteorologists note that the forecast remains subject to change depending on the cyclone's exact trajectory.
