Tropical cyclone Freddy dumped “dangerous and exceptional rainfall levels” over Mozambique on Friday (Feb. 24) as the storm continued to wreak havoc across southern Africa, the UN weather agency said.
Freddy made landfall in the coastal town of Vilanculos with wind speeds of a hundred thirteen kilometers damaging trees and housing. Residents sheltered at a primary school, terrified.
It is projected to weaken as it barrels through southern Africa but still poses serious risk of heavy rainfall to Zimbabwe, South Africa, Zambia, Malawi and Botswana; according to the regional weather centre in La Réunion island.
