• A mostly sunny and warm Easter Weekend is expected, making it perfect for outdoor activities.
• High daytime temperature increases the probability of dehydration and evapotranspiration.
• Differences between night and daytime temperatures can affect the health of vulnerable members of society and trigger respiratory-related illnesses in all persons.
• Lightning still remains a potential threat; even when skies seem clear and thunderstorm clouds appear distant.
ACTIONS TO TAKE
• Keep hydrated by drinking adequate amounts of water.
• If there is a need to stay outdoors for a prolonged period, ensure to wear a sunhat or sunscreen.
• Ensure the young, persons who are ill and the elderly are adequately dressed both day and night.
• Monitor plants and animals/pets for moisture and heat stress and act accordingly to reduce these impacts by watering or giving them adequate water to drink.
WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR MONDAY 10 APRIL 2023
Clear skies are expected in the morning with temperatures in the cool range. Partly cloudy conditions are expected in areas to the west of the country such as Matabeleland North and South, and Bulawayo Metropolitan provinces as a cloudy system invades the sky from the west. Isolated evening thunderstorms are probable. All other areas are anticipated to be mostly sunny.
