Liepāja's thermometer ready to wake up from winter sleep and show numbers that don't start with a minus sign
Meteorologists promise that next week in Liepāja it will be possible to go outside without winter clothing that usually resembles an astronaut's spacesuit.
After several months when Liepāja residents felt like penguins in Antarctica, meteorologists have finally announced the good news - next week the thermometer will show numbers that don't start with a minus sign. This means we can start planning crazy things, like taking a walk along Pēdējā acs without worrying that our nose will fall off.
At the beginning of the week, the skies will be like Liepāja's tram schedule - mostly cloudy, but clearing up in places. Light precipitation is expected at times, and here's where it gets interesting - rain AND wet snow simultaneously. As pensioner Līga from Karosta says: 'Good thing I have both an umbrella and a snow shovel. You never know what's going to fall from the sky today.'
From mid-week, an anticyclone will take the situation into its own hands, which in Liepāja means only one thing - the sun will finally show its face more often than Riga's mayor during election time. During the day, the thermometer might even reach +10 degrees, which in a city where even the tram freezes in winter is practically tropical heat waves.
Meanwhile, Riga continues to complain that they don't have as romantic a winter as Liepāja. Well, we've always been special - not only with our legendary rock music, but also with our ability to survive any weather conditions and still laugh about it.
