Orai.lt: a week ahead with changing, yet still winter-like weather – with sleet forming in some places

This week's weather forecast indicates a mix of winter conditions with potential sleet and ice formation in various parts of Lithuania.

The weather forecast for Lithuania this week suggests a variety of winter weather patterns, with warnings issued for the formation of sleet and black ice in several regions. Due to light winds, fog may develop in the mornings, particularly affecting visibility. In the southwestern areas of the country, temperatures are expected to rise above freezing between 1-3 degrees Celsius, while the northeastern regions will likely remain below zero, experiencing temperatures around -2 degrees Celsius.

On Tuesday night, precipitation is predicted in many areas, although during the day, its occurrence is expected to shift to a smaller part of the country with less intensity. There’s a continual risk of sleet and black ice in various pockets, coupled with the potential for fog to linger in some places. Winds will remain light, varying in direction and expected to achieve speeds of 4-9 m/s. As night falls, temperatures may drop to between -1 and -6 degrees Celsius, while daytime temperatures will range from -1 to +4 degrees Celsius.

By Wednesday, the passing of a cyclone is anticipated, leading to clearer skies, although light winds will maintain a chance for localized fog. An area of high pressure will inhibit significant precipitation. However, with scant cloud cover overnight, the temperatures will plummet, potentially reaching lows of -8 to -13 degrees Celsius, and in some areas, even between -14 to -17 degrees Celsius before daytime warmth returns, allowing for some areas to rise above freezing again.
