PREAMBLE
ZIMBABWE EVENING WEATHER REPORT AND FORECAST ISSUED AT 1600 HRS ON MONDAY 03 OCTOBER 2022 VALID UNTIL WEDNESDAY 05 OCTOBER 2022.
It was cool in the morning and the country was under clear skies. Mostly sunny and hot conditions were
experienced by the afternoon.
FORECAST FOR TOMORROW TUESDAY 04 OCTOBER 2022
Cool morning conditions are expected throughout the country with a slight haze. It should be sunny and hot by the afternoon with windy and cool conditions expected towards the evening.
IMPACTS
• Strong winds increase the occurrence of veldt fires.
• While land preparations are vital at this stage, those engaged in such on-farm and other outdoor activities are reminded to wear sunhats if they need to be outdoors for prolonged periods of time.
• High temperatures can cause dehydration and other related diseases.
• Windy and dry conditions may affect the body’s health, with common colds, allergies, and hay fever, as well as asthma, being common.
ACTIONS TO TAKE;
• Take enough fluids to compensate for water loss through dehydration with medical doctors’ advice.
• Keep warm at night and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, especially during midday.
• Put out any fires found in open veldt fires and road-sides. Do not leave any fire unattended.
• Veld fires are extensive so farmers are expected to construct fire guards that are at least 9 metres wide and free of burning vegetative matter.
• Ensure adequate watering of animals during hot periods to reduce heat-induced stress.
