According to the Meteorological Services Department, Cyclone Chido’s intensity has diminished over land, resulting in lighter rainfall rather than destructive storms. This is a welcome relief, as initial forecasts had predicted more severe weather conditions.

Awareness campaigns are ongoing in flood-prone areas such as Shashe and Tshituripasi, among others. Residents are being urged to take necessary precautions to stay safe, including stocking up on essentials and avoiding dangerous water bodies or flooded areas.
