“The summer weather is gradually gaining momentum. The upper valley, which lasted over Eastern Europe for almost two months (from the second decade of April) and caused the cool spring weather in Lithuania, part of Eastern and Central Europe, It is filling up, therefore the direction of air transport over Lithuania is expected to change: from the prevailing north and northwest to the east and southeast (at least for the next ten days).
This means that inland air masses will prevail over the Baltic states, which are currently much warmer in time than marine air masses. It is also gratifying that there are increasingly frequent short rains, which are very necessary at this time of year for the rapid development of vegetation and, of course, for the restoration of soil moisture and river water. Of course, the rains are more local, so the required rain does not reach all districts, “says Gintautas Stankūnavičius, associate professor in the Department of Hydrology and Climatology at the University of Vilnius (VU).
According to G. Stankūnavičius in his weekly review of global climate and forecasts, the rain marathon in Lithuania will start tonight.
“Tonight, the frontal wave will roll towards Lithuania from south-western Europe, which will bring rain to the entire territory of Lithuania, mainly in the eastern and western part of Lithuania. However, after the rain, the weather will not cool down , but it will continue to heat up, there will be less heat only on the coast. The atmospheric fronts and the humid air masses moving from the south will lead to a warm and rainy climate for most of the next week, “says G. Stankūnavičius.
The meteorologist has a gratifying knowledge, the columns of the thermometer will look really summery.
“Over the weekend, the air temperature during the day will rise above 20 ° C, and next week above 25 ° C, the air temperature at night (a sign of hot air mass ) will increase especially, reaching a heat of 10-15 ° C “, shares the forecast.
It is true, according to the scientist, one should not rush to rejoice in the summer heat and expect them to stay for long.
“Next weekend, the anticyclone will intensify over Scandinavia and the climate throughout the Baltic region will again be drier and cooler.” Long-term weather forecasts have also changed. Currently, the rest of June is forecast to be at least 0.5–1.0 ° C warmer than the perennial temperature, ”writes G. Stankūnavičius.
