In the next few hours, light rain is expected in many areas and will move towards the northeast. In some places, it will still rain heavily, there will be storms, the wind will increase to 15-18 m/s on the coast.
The most active rain centers with thunderstorms have passed Šiauliai and Kaunas counties. 15-30 mm of rain was measured at some of the meteorological stations, and wind gusts of 16 m/s were recorded at the Laukuvas weather station.
In the Facebook group “The weather and climate in Lithuania” reports that heavy rain has also visited Kaunas. Ukmergė, Panevėžys can also prepare.
At that time, rays of nostalgia appeared in the capital. According to meteorologist Gytis Valaikas, crepuscular (or twilight) rays are those that come from the sun through cracks in the cloud, creating visible light and dark bands in the atmosphere or clouds. When they look at the sun’s rays from the earth, they seem to move in different directions, but they are parallel. This is due to the perspective of the beholder. It is not enough to pass through cracks in the cloud to create such rays. They must be dispersed by air particles (eg small water droplets).
On Thursday, the weather in Lithuania will be determined by a cyclonic vortex. The morning will be brighter in the eastern part of the country, the cloud here will begin to increase just after midday. In the western part of the country, denser ball clouds will move from the morning, which will already sprinkle rain there. By the afternoon, there will be short-term rain in many places across the country. In some places there will be heavy rain, there will be storms. The driest day should remain in southeastern areas. A light south-westerly, westerly wind will blow. In the western part of the country with more active clouds, it sometimes strengthens to 15-18 m / s. The day is expected to be cooler – the temperature will not rise above 17-22 degrees.
