In the middle of the week, weather in Latvia will become cloudy. There will be only moments of clear sky. Some precipitation is expected every now and then. More snow is expected in eastern parts of the country. In some areas the layer of snow will increase by several centimetres, as reported by Latvian State Environment, Geology and Meteorology Centre.
Motorists should be careful because visibility will worsen during precipitation events. Roads will become slippery! The wind will blow from the west and north-west. On Thursday, the 28th of December, the wind will blow from the south and south-west. Wind speed along the coast will reach 15-17 m/sec. Maximum air temperature will reach -1° C… +4° C. Nights will be colder; in many parts of Latvia air temperature will drop to +1° C… -5° C.
At the end of the year, with southern masses of air dominating the weather, colder masses of air will flow to the country. Both at night and during the day air temperature in most of the country will stay above 0° C. This means snow will continue to melt. The sky will be cloudy. More rain is expected as well. The wind will calm down in most of the country and will remain strong along the coast.
While the year will conclude with mostly warm weather, the new year will start off with gradual influx of colder air to Latvia.
