The Met Department’s head of forecasting, James Ngoma, told State media the cloud band that was responsible for the heavy rainfall has weakened. He said:

> The band which was responsible for the considerable rain over the weekend has since weakened and moved eastward into Mozambique and beyond.

> The country is however still in the main rainy season, with the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone still very much active, thus more rainfall is anticipated.

> The MSD will keep monitoring and keeping the public informed of all-weather events that may affect Zimbabwe and its populace.

Ngoma advised people in the southern parts of the country to harvest water as there will likely be a lull in rainfall activity. He said:

> Moderate rains are still expected, with localized downpours. A slight lull in the rainfall is probable, especially in the Southern parts of the country.

> What people should do is practice water harvesting from all possible sources, irrigate where plant stress is noted, and consult their local agritex officer for site-specific crop and livestock advice.
