Storms, heatwaves and sudden downpours shape life across Africa. If you need quick forecasts, travel warnings or simple steps to stay safe, this tag page brings you the most useful weather updates and practical advice — focused on African cities and regions you care about.
We track short-term forecasts for major cities like Lagos, Nairobi, Cape Town and Accra, plus regional alerts for coastal and inland areas. Expect: daily temperature ranges, rainfall probability, flood and cyclone warnings, and wind advisories. We also report on weather that matters to farmers, commuters and event planners — think planting windows, road washouts and match cancellations.
When a cyclone or heavy rain risk appears, we spell out the likely path, timing and local impact so you know whether to move vehicles, protect livestock or change travel plans. For heatwaves and drought, we explain immediate coping steps and link to relief or official guidance where available.
Check the local forecast first: we list city and regional updates so you can see what’s relevant to your town. If you see a flood or cyclone alert, act on it now: secure loose items, move valuables to higher ground, and avoid driving through standing water. For travel: always confirm with local authorities and your transport provider before heading out during heavy weather.
Farmers: use our seasonal notes to plan planting and harvesting. We highlight likely rainy windows and dry spells so you can protect crops and schedule irrigation or harvests. Urban residents: watch for short, intense storms that cause flash flooding. Simple household prep — clearing drains, stashing emergency supplies — prevents a lot of damage.
We keep jargon out of the way. When we report a warning, you’ll see clear steps: what to expect, who should act, and where to get official help. Our stories link to radar images, satellite views, and government bulletins when those are available.
