Weather in Riga

Riga

As we look towards tomorrow, Thursday, the weather in Riga will be dominated by cooler temperatures and overcast skies. Starting at midnight, the temperature will hover around 4 degrees, but it will feel chillier at around 1.8 degrees due to the humidity, which will be high, hovering around 80-90 percent throughout the night and into the morning. Cloud cover will be almost complete, reaching nearly 100 percent, with overcast skies lasting through the day.

In the early hours, we expect brief spells of rain beginning around 2 AM and continuing intermittently through the morning. The rain will potentially intensify with peak precipitation probable towards 9 AM, which might bring some discomfort with a likelihood of precipitation at roughly 84 percent. A gentle breeze will accompany the rain, with wind speeds gusting between 8 and 18 kilometers per hour, adding to the chill factor especially early in the morning with "feels like" temperatures dropping slightly below actual readings.

By late morning, even as the ambient temperature rises slowly to around 4 degrees, it will feel closer to 1 degree because of the brisk wind. This pattern continues unchanged in the afternoon with consistent rainfall persisting.

For everyone needing to head out, rain gear is essential, so consider bringing a sturdy umbrella or water-resistant clothing. The wet roads and reduced visibility mean motorists and cyclists should exercise extra caution. The cold and damp conditions might not be ideal for the elderly or very young children. Parents of young children are advised to dress them warmly and keep them dry. Meanwhile, pet owners should be mindful of walking over slick surfaces, and it's wise to dry off pets thoroughly after walks to prevent chill.

As we move into the evening, temperatures will drop further, reaching around 1.3 degrees by midnight with a wind chill factor making it feel much colder, close to -3.4 degrees. Wrap up warmly if you're planning to be outside during the night, as the wind will continue to swirl over 30 kilometers per hour at times.

In summary, expect a soggy day in Riga tomorrow with persistent rain, cooler than expected temperatures, and a fully overcast sky. Be sure to dress warmly and stay protected from the rain. And for those concerned about UV exposure, the index remains low at zero throughout the day, so there's no immediate risk in that aspect. Stay safe and dry!
