Weather in Riga in February
February in Riga is deep winter. Days are short. The outdoor plan is a window in the middle of the day or not at all.
In Latvia, this is how Riga actually wears February, not how a country centroid would. February is the cold side of the year in Riga. Pack for that, not for a leftover summer photo.

What to expect
Daytime
Days in Riga in February are about getting between indoor places. The cold is the story. Gloves are not a fashion choice.
A clear spell is for a short walk, then back in. Do not plan a long outdoor day as the default. Night falls early and the cold deepens with it.
Rain
Mixed skies in Riga in February. Dry days and wet days share the month. Outdoor plans need a backup, not a cancellation policy.
Pack a shell you will actually carry. The monthly table is the place for totals. This is the feel: usable, interrupted.
Evening
