Met Department Speaks On Cyclone Chido
By A Correspondent
Zimbabwe is expected to receive significant rainfall this week as Cyclone Chido, now downgraded to a tropical depression, makes its impact felt. According to the Meteorological Services Department (MSD), remnants of Cyclone Chido will bring accumulations of up to 30-50mm in some regions.
MSD Head of Forecast, James Ngoma, confirmed that Cyclone Chido made landfall in northern Mozambique near Pemba and drifted southwards, losing intensity. “By this morning, it was in southern Malawi, and its strength continued to diminish as it traversed northern Mozambique.”
Ngoma predicted light showers in eastern Zimbabwe, with moderate downpours expected in northern Mashonaland East, Manicaland and parts of Mashonaland Central. Matabeleland North and South are expected to experience thundershowers.
Residents can expect relief from the rainfall, but should remain cautious of potential flooding and disruptions. Stay tuned for further updates from the MSD.
