Kenya's rainy season is still going strong with more downpours expected. The Kenya Meteorological Department says rainfall will continue across various regions into Tuesday. They specifically warned residents in flood-prone and low-lying zones to stay alert. Areas expected to get more rain include the Highlands east and west of the Rift Valley, Nairobi, the Lake Victoria Basin, sections of the Rift Valley itself, the southeastern lowlands, and the Coastal region. Officials urged people to monitor official weather updates for safety advisories.
The National Transport and Safety Authority also told everyone using roads to be careful. They cited heavy rain and fog creating slippery surfaces and bad visibility on major routes. Their advice was to drive more slowly, keep more distance between vehicles, and avoid trying to pass other cars when you cannot see clearly. They also warned about flooded sections on low-lying roads. Counties likely to see intensified conditions include Migori, Homa Bay, Kisii, Narok, Kajiado, Makueni, Machakos, Nairobi, Kericho, Bomet, southern Kitui, Taita-Taveta, and Kwale. The weather pattern should start easing after Tuesday.
