Mauritius Met issues ‘Heavy Rain Watch’, valid as from 2pm this Saturday
The Mauritius Meteorological Services have issued a ‘Heavy Rain Watch’ that is valid as from 2pm this Saturday 04 March 2023.
“The airmass over the region is very moist and unstable, thus creating the conducive environment for the formation of active clouds over our region. Moreover, active clouds associated with an instability zone are approaching the island from the South and will influence the local weather as from this evening,” it said.
Moderate to heavy showers with thunderstorms are expected as from this afternoon, at first to the South, the East and over the central plateau. Afterwards, during the night, these showers will become more widespread.
“The heavy showers will cause temporary water accumulations in some areas,” the Met Office warned.
