Met Department Predicts Thunderstorms, Lightning Across The Country
The Meteorological Services Department (MSD) has predicted heavy rains and thunderstorms across the country next week, starting from today (Sunday).
In a statement, MSD said heavier falls in excess of 50mm in 24 hours are expected in some areas. It said:
Widespread thunderstorms are expected across much of the country. These storms are expected to bring heavier falls (in excess of 50mm in 24 hours) in places.
FeedbackSuch a thundery phenomenon is usually superseded by lightning. This poses a potential threat to the tallest objects such as trees, poles, isolated sheds and even persons in an open field.
Downstream flooding is also a potential hazard. Once a thunderstorm begins, desist from all outdoor activity.
