Kenyans in several parts of the country have been advised to prepare for more rainfall over the next 24 hours following a fresh weather forecast issued by the Kenya Meteorological Department.
The latest announcement comes as the country continues experiencing the October-November-December (OND) rainy season, which has brought changing weather conditions across several counties.
Residents in the Lake Victoria Basin, Western Kenya, Rift Valley, Central Kenya and parts of Northern Kenya are among those expected to experience rainfall during the forecast period.
Nairobi and neighbouring counties are also among the areas that residents should monitor for possible changes in weather conditions.
The meteorological department has continued urging Kenyans to pay attention to official forecasts, particularly those living in areas that are prone to flooding and landslides.
Heavy rainfall can lead to flash floods, poor visibility on roads and disruptions to transport, especially in urban centres with drainage challenges.
Motorists have therefore been advised to exercise caution when driving during heavy showers, while residents in low-lying areas should remain alert to possible flooding.
The latest forecast has also drawn attention from Kenyans following updates shared by media platforms on social media, with many residents keen to establish whether their respective counties will receive rainfall.
The ongoing rainy season has continued to influence daily activities, including farming, transport and business operations in different parts of the country.
Kenyans have been encouraged to follow regular updates from the Kenya Meteorological Department rather than relying on unverified weather information circulating online.
The latest warning serves as a reminder for residents to remain prepared as rainfall continues across different parts of the country.
