Rains expected next week

SIGNIFICANT rains are expected to start from next Monday as winter is now over, the Meteorological Services Department (MSD) said on Monday.

In a statement, the MSD said last Saturday, moisture entered the country from Botswana and South Africa resulting in cloudy and relatively cool weather in Matabeleland as well as the southern half of the Midlands and Masvingo provinces resulting in thunderstorms and drizzle in areas such as in Victoria Falls and Kezi the following day.

It said from tomorrow until Sunday, the whole country should return to the hot to very hot and dry weather.
