Read the forecast: > The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), which has been active over the northern parts of the country is expected to combine with a cloud band, which is moving from the west to the east covering the whole country. > As a result, the combined effect of the two should result in precipitation amounts over 50mm in areas along the main watershed. Rain above 50mm is expected in Bulawayo, plus Matobo, Umzingwane, Insiza, and parts of Mangwe in Matabeleland South and Umguza and Bubi in Matabeleland North. Zvishavane, Shurugwi, Kwekwe, Kadoma, Chirumhanzu and Mberengwa in Midlands and Chivi, and Gutu in Masvingo are also expected to receive rainfall exceeding 50mm.

The rest of the country, although expected to receive heavy rains, will likely record below 50mm. The MSD has warned the public that lightning and hailstorms are probable in some places.
