Dry conditions expected in Zimbabwe

The Meteorological Services Department (MSD) has issued a warning about a period of relatively dry and hot conditions expected to affect most parts of Zimbabwe starting tomorrow. The dry spell, anticipated to last until December 11, will bring a decline in rainfall activity across the country.

According to the MSD, a cool, moist south-easterly airflow moving into the region today is expected to reduce thunderstorm activity significantly. However, light rain and drizzle may still occur in Matabeleland South and Masvingo provinces on Friday.

Starting Sunday, the MSD forecasts mostly sunny and hot conditions to dominate nationwide. While rainfall will be limited, "very isolated cloudy periods and light showers cannot be ruled out," the MSD noted in its statement.

Communities across the country are advised to prepare for the dry spell, particularly in agricultural regions, where the lack of rain may impact crop planting and growth. The MSD encourages residents to stay updated on weather advisories and take necessary precautions against heat exposure.

For further updates, the MSD urges the public to follow its official channels.
