The Meteorological Services Department (MSD) has forecasted moderate rains across southern Zimbabwe from this Monday up to Wednesday.
The MSD said although the volume of rain could be low, it could be enough to sustain some crops.
This comes as farmers across the country who planted their fields last month with the early rains have expressed grave concern over the prolonged dry spell.
The bulk of crops planted early have begun showing signs of wilting due to persistent high temperatures and no rain.
MSD agro-meteorologist Benjamin Kwenda on Sunday said apart from this week, some rains were expected from 12 December, with significant falls expected in some places. Said Kwenda:
<blockquote>
We are still on course on the normal to above normal rainfall that was forecasted for October to December.
At the end of December, we will do an analysis and we will be able to tell whether it will be normal to above normal.

Zimbabwe Weather Report And Forecast – 02 May To 04 May 2021

Sunday Makore (47) of Sizinda suburb in Bulawayo and three accomplices allegedly stormed a Meteorological Services Department (MSD) office and stole a generator before fleeing in a getaway car on 16 March this year.
Makore and his three accomplices who are all still at large, reportedly struck at Goetz Observatory in Khumalo suburb travelling in unregistered Toyota Runx on 16 March at around 8 PM.
Prosecuting, Ashley Dube said Makore dropped from the motor vehicle and he walked straight to the generator room.
Two of the suspects and Makore allegedly took a Kipor Diesel Operator, loaded it into the car and the gang drove away at high speed.
Makore last Friday pleaded not guilty to one count of theft when he appeared before Bulawayo magistrate Rachel Mukanga.
Mukanga granted him $10 000 bail and he will be back in court on 5 May. The State did not oppose bail.
Meanwhile, the total value of the generator is $102 000 and nothing was recovered.
