Dineo weakens, moderate winds expected

Tropical cyclone Dineo weakened considerably over the weekend and was downgraded to a normal low-pressure system that was expected to cause moderate rainfall, says Meteorological Service deputy director Franz Uirab.Uirab said Dineo entered Namibia in a north-westerly trajectory, passing over the northern parts of the Omaheke, Kavango, Zambezi and Otjozondjupa regions. “It was situated over the Oshikoto, Oshana, Kavango East and West and the north of the Otjozondjupa regions. As pressures are expected to fall and deepen over the Namibian west coast, the low-pressure system that originated from the tropical depression moved southwards, covering the central and southern parts.”Heavy rains, accompanied by fresh winds, are expected this week.“As a result, partly cloudy and warm to hot weather with isolated thunderstorms are expected in the Kunene Region. “It will be cloudy to overcast with scattered thundershowers and thundershowers over the Khomas, //Karas, Hardap, Oshikoto, Oshana, Omusati, Otjozondjupa, Kavango East and West, Omaheke and Kunene regions, while winds are expected to be moderate to fresh,” Uirab said of the forecast for today.STAFF REPORTER
