temperatures tend to be in the 50s. In summer, highs are generally in the 60s or 70s—despite
the extra hours of daylight during the “White Nights”. Sometimes, however, the summer
months will exhibit heat up to 90-95 degrees as well. Rain showers are more frequent in
summer and early fall. Be aware however, that late fall (October & November) and winter can
bring snow, dark (daylight hours are brief), and can be very cold, with temperatures below
freezing, strong winds and freezing rains.
One intriguing climate phenomenon experienced in many cities throughout the region is the
“White Nights”, a term used to describe the unusually long hours of daylight around the
summer solstice. In Latvia or Lithuania the sun might not set until 9 pm, and in parts of
Russia and Estonia, daylight can last until 10:30 pm!
