A FEW TIPS FOR THE RAINS
We've spent a good amount of time over the past few weeks following up on the latest weather update as one way of managing risk on our on-going projects. There have been rains in the southern region over the past few days and we're anticipating rains in the central region over the weekend or next few days, according to the Met Department. Please be sure to do the following:
1. Ensure all your vehicle tyres are in good condition and wipers are working properly;
2. Clear all gutters and downpipes to avoid clogging;
3. Clear ll storm-water drains are to avoid ponding of water around your properties;
4. If you have a spare drum, you can use this to collect water from your roof for cleaning/gardening/laundering/hygiene purposes;
5. If travelling out to rural areas, crosscheck with colleagues on the condition of roads and, in the same spirit, share the same with others too; and
6. Take precaution against lightening.
Please feel free to share more tips below.
One more thing. Don't forget to buy and umbrella or dig out one from your storage!
Enjoy your weekend!
Expect hot conditions with thunder showers over few of southern areas, and also few places of Ntcheu, Dedza and Nkhatabay. This is due to dominance of warm easterlies over Malawi. It will be mild to warm and partly cloudy at night.
