Weather in Riga


As we look forward to Thursday, June 19th, the weather in Riga will unfold with some distinct characteristics throughout the day. We begin in the early hours with relatively cool temperatures around 12.2 degrees. It will feel quite similar to the actual temperature, and with the high humidity levels, we can expect clear and crisp conditions through the night.
As the morning progresses from around 3 AM, we'll see the sky becoming partially cloudy while temperatures remain in the low ranges, around 10.9 degrees, with a slight increase in humidity, leading to a noticeably fresher environment. By early morning, around 6 AM, the chance of light rain kicks in. It will be standing at around 32.3 percent probability, so don't forget to grab a light waterproof jacket if you're heading out. The temperature by now should feel a bit warmer, reaching around 11.1 degrees, and with the slight breeze from the wind, it might be a refreshing start for those morning jogs or dog walks.
Moving into the late morning and early afternoon, temperatures will rise to about 16.3 degrees by midday. However, rain accompanies this warmth, suggesting that we will experience some wet spells interspersed with cloudy skies. Motorists will need to exercise caution on the roads around this time due to slick conditions, and cyclists should be prepared for potentially slippery surfaces, especially as we see gusty winds reaching up to 40.3 kilometers per hour.
By the afternoon, the day remains rainy and overcast, while temperatures continue hovering around the mid-16 degrees mark. Garden enthusiasts won't have much to do as the heavy cloud cover persists, but those using public transport or driving should note the rainy intervals could fluctuate, impacting travel plans. Consider carrying an umbrella and wearing water-resistant footwear to stay comfortable throughout the day.
As we approach evening, although the rain will likely subside, the overcast skies will hold firm, keeping the environment feeling a bit cooler around 14 degrees. Wind gusts will remain significant, making it advisable for motorcyclists to watch for crosswinds. As for pet owners and young mothers, it's wise to ensure everyone, including pets, is dressed adequately for the dropping evening temperature.
It is a day where planning ahead for the rain is essential, and keeping dry should be a priority. With these insights on hand, we can all enjoy what Thursday has to offer, rain or shine.
