Saturday forecast: cloudy skies but mostly dry weather across Latvia
Meteorologists expect Saturday to bring mostly cloudy conditions to Latvia, with only scattered light rain, while most of the country stays dry and relatively mild.
Latvia's weather on Saturday will be dominated by cloud cover, though forecasters say the day will pass without significant precipitation. The night will be mostly clear, with patchy fog possible in the eastern part of the country. A light southerly wind will blow, and overnight temperatures will range widely — from as low as +2 degrees in some eastern districts to as high as +11 degrees along the Kurzeme coast.
During the day, weather will shift from west to east: clouds will first move in from the western regions, bringing scattered light rain in places. By evening, however, skies over Kurzeme are expected to clear somewhat as cloud cover thins. Winds will be light to moderate, blowing from the west and southwest. Daytime highs will reach +15 to +20 degrees, pointing to a relatively mild autumn day.
Conditions in Riga
In the capital, the night and morning hours will be clear but cooler than the national average, with temperatures dropping to +8 degrees, and as low as +5 to +7 degrees in Riga's suburban areas. Clouds will gradually build over the city during the day, though no notable rainfall is expected. Winds will be light, starting from the south before shifting westward. The daytime high in Riga is forecast at +18 degrees.
Overall, Saturday is shaping up to be a mild, typical autumn day without major disruptions — any rain that does appear will be light and limited to certain areas.
