This evening, the weather in Latvia will deteriorate sharply. According to the Latvian Environment, Geology and Meteorology Centre, thunderstorms with heavy rainfall are expected in many areas of the country from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM. In some places, the storm clouds will be accompanied by gusts of wind up to 15–16 meters per second. The most challenging situation is forecasted for the eastern part of Latvia. Very heavy precipitation is expected here, along with the possibility of large hail. In connection with this, meteorologists have issued an orange warning level for the eastern regions, indicating dangerous weather phenomena that could cause damage and disrupt daily activities. A yellow warning level is in effect for the central part of the country. This means that weather conditions may complicate transportation and outdoor events. Residents are advised to avoid staying under trees and near poorly secured structures whenever possible, and motorists should take into account reduced visibility and possible water accumulation on the roads. Weather conditions can change rapidly, so meteorologists recommend keeping an eye on current warnings and being prepared for a sudden intensification of thunderstorms.
