After a week of truly winter frosts, when temperatures in the eastern regions dropped to -22°C, cold and generally dry weather will persist in Latvia. Over the weekend and at the beginning of next week, due to the anticyclone and frequent clearings, the frost will intensify: on the nights of Monday and Tuesday, temperatures of -20 to -24°C are forecasted for most of the country.
Friday will be mostly cloudy, but occasional clearings are expected, with no precipitation forecasted. A weak to moderate southern and southeastern wind will blow, becoming gusty in the evening along the western coast of the Gulf of Riga. At night, temperatures will range from -5 to -10°C, in the eastern regions from -10 to -15°C, and in Latgale from -15 to -20°C. During the day, it will be warmer: -3 to -8°C, and in the eastern regions no higher than -9 to -14°C.
Over the weekend, the sky will be variably cloudy. A weak to moderate southern and southeastern wind will persist. During the day, the air will not warm above -6°C, and at night in the eastern regions, it will cool down to -19°C.
In the first half of next week, with the arrival of a colder air mass, temperatures will be several degrees lower in some places than in previous days. On the nights of Monday and Tuesday, strong frosts are expected over most of the territory, with minimum temperatures reaching -20 to -24°C.
