"Morning rains as well as afternoon and night showers and thunderstorms are expected over several places during the first and the final day of the forecast period", he adds  in a weekly weather forecast seen by MWINGI TIMES. The weather forecast period ranged from 18 to 24 March, 2025.

The weatherman has once again reiterated that adverse effects of climate change reduce agricultural output in their region. Mbithi said that farmers should consult their ward agricultural extension officers for advice on the best farm practices.

Climate change is the long-term shift in temperatures and weather patterns. The effects of climate change include hotter temperatures, more severe storms, increased drought, loss of species, among others.
