Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Tropical Cyclone Freddy\u2019s strong winds and heavy rainfall are likely to extend to Eswatini.<\/b><\/p>\n

This is according to the National Disaster Management Agency (NDMA). The organisation, and the Eswatini Meteorological Services, have since activated a tropical cyclone watch where they are continuously monitoring the evolution of this weather system to ensure timely communication of warning status to the public.<\/p>\n

The NDMA said intense Tropical Cyclone Freddy was projected to make landfall on the eastern coast of Madagascar, on Tuesday and emerge into the Mozambique Channel on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The organisation said Tropical Cyclone Freddy was expected to make landfall along the east coast of Mozambique and potentially reach Zimbabwe towards the end of the current week.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Tropical Cyclone carries with it strong winds and heavy rainfall which is likely to extend into Eswatini,\u201d the NDMA said.<\/p>\n

The NDMA said after crossing Madagascar, Cyclone Freddy is projected to emerge in the Mozambican Channel and strengthen again before making landfall in Mozambique and potentially moving on to impact Zimbabwe, after decreasing in strength.<\/p>\n

Eswatini is projected to be affected by the oncoming cyclone Freddy which may have a huge impact thus exacerbating the already fragile conditions in the country.<\/p>\n

The organisation said lessons learnt from previous cyclones the most recent one being Eloise was that cyclones entering through the Mozambique channel brought about strong winds and heavy rainfall resulting in damages to critical infrastructure, dwellings, and flooding.<\/p>\n

They stated that Eswatini also developed a costed Tropical Cyclone Readiness Plan for preparedness, humanitarian response, and early recovery activities to guide and coordinate response requirements.<\/p>\n

Advisories:<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Check your house; secure loose tiles and carry out repairs of doors and<\/p>\n

windows; Retrofit where possible.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Trim down trees to make sure they do not fall over houses, telephones or electricity lines during the storm.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Keep your mobile phone fully charged and other appliances like torches handy as there may be power cuts during a cyclone due to strong winds and rains.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Houses built of sticks and mud must be protected from direct contact with roof water<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Construct barriers (beams, floodwalls) to stop floodwater from entering your home. Sandbags can provide a temporary levee in an emergency.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Households located downstream of dams\/rivers should remain vigilant and aware that dam spillways and flood gates are opened which may lead to increased water volumes to their homes unknowingly.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Schools, communities, and parents are advised to be always vigilant when sending children to and from schools especially those crossing rivers when journeying.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Ensure household members know which is the strongest part of the house and what to do in the event of a cyclone warning or an evacuation.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Clear your property of loose material that could blow about and possibly cause injury or damage during extreme winds.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 In case of a storm surge\/tide warning, or another flooding, know your nearest safe high ground and the safest access route to it.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Prepare an emergency kit containing: (a portable battery radio, torch and spare batteries, water containers, dried or canned food and a can opener, matches, fuel lamp, portable stove, cooking gear, eating utensils, and a first aid kit.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Increase water storage (water bottles, jerrycans etc) to use immediately after the cyclone.<\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Fill vehicle fuel tank and park vehicles under solid shelter<\/p>\n
