This being a precursor to the steady augmentation of moisture from Botswana, with the Meteorological Services Department set to issue a Rainfall Alert soon/in the coming days.

Tomorrow, Tuesday 15 December 2 020, it is expected to be partly cloudy and mild at first, becoming warm and increasingly cloudy by afternoon, with rain-showers that could be thundery in places across the country.

These storms are likely to be violently accompanied by strong winds and possibly hail.

Localized heavy downpours could not be discounted, especially in areas along the main watershed as well as near the western border of Zimbabwe with Botswana.
