After a period of turbulent skies marked by thunderstorms, hail, and driving winds, Latvia finds itself on the threshold of a quieter day. A high-pressure system — nature's own pause — is settling over the country, bringing with it the kind of calm that makes summer feel like summer again. Temperatures will reach a gentle 20 to 24 degrees Celsius, and for a moment at least, the weather will ask nothing difficult of those who live beneath it.
