Kenyans across several parts of the country have been advised to prepare for a shift in weather over the next 24 hours, with rain, thunderstorms, and noticeable temperature swings expected in 28 counties.
According to the latest forecast, some regions will see heavy afternoon and evening showers accompanied by thunderstorms, while others will remain warm during the day before temperatures drop sharply overnight. The changing conditions are expected to affect travel, outdoor activities, and farming in several areas.
Residents in highland regions have been advised to carry warm clothing, with chilly mornings and cold nights expected to continue. Meanwhile, lowland and coastal counties are expected to see hotter daytime temperatures before cloud cover builds up later in the day.
Motorists have been urged to drive with extra caution during heavy rainfall, as wet roads and reduced visibility can increase the risk of accidents. Residents in flood-prone areas have also been advised to stay alert for sudden runoff following intense downpours.
Farmers stand to benefit from the rain in many regions, though agricultural experts recommend ensuring proper drainage to protect crops from waterlogging. Livestock keepers have also been reminded to provide adequate shelter for animals during storms.
The forecast underscores Kenya's often contrasting weather patterns, where one part of the country can experience clear skies while another faces heavy storms on the same day — a reminder for families to stay informed and plan accordingly.
