Weather systems collide

THE light rain that fell over Windhoek yesterday was caused by cool, moist air moving in from Angola.Weatherman Odillo Kgobetsi told The Namibian that the tropical system reached the central and eastern parts of Namibia yesterday.

Two weather systems will make their presence felt today, particularly in the South. The first is a cold front from the southern tip of Africa that will cause temperatures to drop in the Karas Region.The moist tropical air from Angola will also reach Karas today, dealing the region a double whammy in the winter stakes.”Temperatures in places such as Karasburg, Keetmanshoop and Mariental will drop significantly,” said Kgobetsi.The first is a cold front from the southern tip of Africa that will cause temperatures to drop in the Karas Region.The moist tropical air from Angola will also reach Karas today, dealing the region a double whammy in the winter stakes.”Temperatures in places such as Karasburg, Keetmanshoop and Mariental will drop significantly,” said Kgobetsi.
