MSD Predicts More Heavy Rains Across The Country

The Meteorological Service Department (MSD) has predicted heavy rains of up to 30mm within 24 hours across the country this Monday.

In a statement issued on Sunday, the MSD said thunderstorms coupled with strong winds are expected to pound much of the country, with the probability of flash floods very high.

MSD head of forecast James Ngoma said there will be a shift in the prevailing airflow which will result in unstable south-west and later south-east airflow becoming dominant and bringing heavy rainfall countrywide. The Statement read:

From the prevailing predominantly north-easterly airflow, a sharp shift in wind regimes is expected late tomorrow afternoon.

This should see more moisture being driven into the south-western part of the country as south-westerly winds begin to strengthen and later veer into south-easterlies.

Morning rain is forecast for provinces such as Matabeleland South, Masvingo and southern areas of Manicaland. It should be mostly cloudy and slightly cooler than of late. Please take due precaution and always monitor your immediate environment.
