Kenya's weather agency is telling people to get ready for serious rain. The Kenya Meteorological Department issued an alert for heavy rainfall and possible flooding in several regions, including Nairobi. Counties like Migori, Kisii, Narok, Kajiado, Makueni, Machakos, Kericho, Bomet, and parts of Kitui, Taita Taveta, and Kwale should brace for impact. The forecast calls for moderate to heavy precipitation exceeding thirty millimeters in a twenty-four-hour period, with the worst expected.
The department predicts the heavy rain will start in the southeastern lowlands before spreading wider. Conditions should begin easing up in intensity after that. Meanwhile, other areas will stay hot and dry. Counties along the coast like Mombasa, Kilifi, and Lamu will see hot weather with some showers. Marsabit, Mandera, Wajir, and Garissa will experience sunny intervals. Marsabit County specifically should prepare for strong southeasterly winds during this period.
