The current dry spell affecting the South-western parts of the country mainly the Matabeleland provinces and Bulawayo is expected to continue, the Meteorological Services Department (MSD)
said in a statement.
The dry spell affecting southern and
western parts of the country which are Bulawayo Metropolitan, Matabeleland North, Matabeleland South, Midlands and Masvingo provinces is expected to last for about seven days.
… This lull in rainfall over much of the
country may prolong, thus farmers in
crop production areas are urged to
consult their local Agricultural
Extension Officers for advice on best
methods of moisture conservation.
The dry spell is expected to last for a whole week. The MSD earlier forecasted normal to

below normal rainfall for the 2018/19 season.State media
