How weather changes the trip
Latvia has meaningful seasonal differences, but short-term conditions can vary within any season. Use the forecast for the final decision and keep an indoor or lower-exposure alternative.
Spring
Layer for cool mornings and check path surfaces after thaw or rain.
Summer
Allow for warm periods, rain, coastal wind, UV and thunderstorms.
Autumn
Plan for shorter daylight, cooler temperatures and wetter or windier periods.
Winter
Check snow, ice, freeze-thaw conditions, daylight and transport before setting out.
Pack from the forecast, not the calendar
Use the next seven days to choose layers. A fixed packing list is less useful than responding to rain, low nighttime temperatures, UV, wind and freezing conditions.
Rain present
Add a waterproof outer layer and water-resistant footwear.
Cool nights
Add a light insulating layer even when afternoons look mild.
Strong wind
Use a wind-resistant layer, especially for the coast.
Clear high-UV periods
Carry sun protection and water.
What the forecast cannot confirm
Weather data does not declare a trail, beach, road or frozen lake safe. Check the responsible authority, attraction or transport operator where conditions affect access.
Official weather information
Forecasts can change. Check the latest official warning and transport information before weather-sensitive travel.
