Šiauliai, in northern Lithuania, receives around 650 mm (about 26 inches) of rain a year, fairly typical for the country’s continental-leaning Baltic climate, with a summer peak from convective thunderstorms. The flat surrounding agricultural landscape means storm cells can be quite localized, often building on hot summer afternoons and bringing hail that affects the region’s farmland. Because the city sits somewhat apart from Lithuania’s larger urban centers, radar tracking provides a genuinely useful independent check on rapidly developing local storms for both residents and farmers. Lithuania’s Hydrometeorological Service operates the national radar network.
