Zimbabwe: Met Dept Warns of Record High Temps

17 October 2017

Zimbabwe is expected to experience near record-breaking high temperatures countrywide from today to tomorrow, the Meteorological Services Department (MSD) has warned. In a statement yesterday, the MSD said although hot temperatures would be experienced across the country, low-lying areas would be the most affected."The MSD wishes to advise the public of very hot weather to be expected on Tuesday 17 October 2017. These near record-breaking high temperatures will be experienced throughout the whole country, with the low-lying areas such as the Zambezi and Limpopo valleys forecast to go as high as 43 degrees Celcius," said the MSD.

The department said Matabeleland North, Harare, all Mashonaland Provinces and the northern parts of the Midlands will continue experiencing high temperatures tomorrow. However, Matabeleland South, Manicaland, Masvingo and southern parts of the Midlands should expect a decline in daytime temperatures due to the cloud cover anticipated to enter the country from South Africa.
